February 19 marks the start of the new Chinese New Year, which this year is the year of Democratics. This should engender great celebrations all around, and doubtless Obama and Pelosi will give speeches celebrating their year. Obama will likely use it as a platform to showcase his recent agreement with China on "greenhouse gas emissions", in which he vowed to cut ours by another 20%, while China vowed to step up emissions.
Oh, wait - I just checked the calendar again. I seem to have mis-read. February 19 marks the start of the Chinese New Year, but it's the Year of the Sheep.
Well, hey - doesn't that mean I was right in the first place?
