In recent weeks, Mattel has recalled more than 21 million Chinese-made toys, including popular Barbie, Polly Pocket and "Cars" movie items, because of concerns about lead paint and tiny magnets that could be swallowed.

If memory serves me right, Mattel makes the plastic components on the M-16. I bet those darn sneaky Chinesse put lead in that too!

The American people will never knowingly adopt Socialism. But under the name of 'liberalism' they will adopt every fragment of the Socialist program, until one day America will be a Socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.

Why on Earth is anyone still doing business with them after that scandal.
