China Plants Flag on White House Lawn: Wins World War III without Firing a Shot

WASHINGTON, Jan 20 (Spoof Times) – The largest country in the world, Communist China, effectively has won World War III against the United States without firing a single shot.

Chinese President Hu Jintao walked victoriously out of the White House with a somber looking President Barrack Obama following behind him. As the two stood on the White House lawn, a Red Chinese soldier planted the flag of the Asian giant into the ground as Hu saluted.

Hu then made a brief statement that was translated into English to the crowd in attendance: “It was only a matter of time, but after many years of patiently waiting for the right moment, we have, in effect, foreclosed on the United States. Using weapons against the American people such as Wal-Mart, where we steadily drained the wealth of your country by filling the store shelves with cheap trinkets made by our slave labor, and by constantly buying your debt to pay for your military adventurism and empire building; we have effectively bought out your country; lock, stock and barrel.”

After the ceremony, the contingent made its way to the West Wing, which now has an all-you-can-eat Chinese buffet, serving the finest in Chinese cuisine.
