Quote du jour, Chinese snickers

They hate the US, and now they laugh at them too. From The Telegraph:
In his first official visit to China since becoming Treasury Secretary, Mr  Geithner told politicians and academics in Beijing that he still supports a  strong US dollar, and insisted that the trillions of dollars of Chinese  investments would not be unduly damaged by the economic crisis. Speaking at  Peking University, Mr Geithner said: “Chinese assets are very safe.” The comment provoked loud laughter from the audience of students.
