Clown suit Obama bows, uses pen to change China Visas

What has been lost in translation with our newest rendition of a clown President was the change in immigration law he just created with his pen. Once more lawless, and underreported. Obama is just testing out his immigration wings without comment from the GOP. Not bad enough? He wishes China well, for us? Not so much.

Beijing (AFP) – President Barack Obama announced a deal Monday to extend visas for Chinese visitors to the United States for up to a decade, insisting he wants China “to do well” despite simmering tensions between the world’s two largest economies.

“The United States welcomes the rise of a prosperous, peaceful and stable China,” Obama said in a speech at the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit in Beijing.

President Obama announced a new plan Monday to extend Chinese student visas to five years and business and tourist visas to 10 years, saying the move will boost jobs in the United States.

The visa plan was part of Obama’s overall call for improved economic ties between the two nations, he said, and would help China “do well.”

The visa change will also apply to U.S. citizens in China. Previously, visas were granted on a year-at-a-time basis.  Full story at Yahoo News
