NRSC Web Video: ‘Americans May Soon Bow Down To Their Chinese Overlords’ (VIDEO)

A still frame in a National Republican Senatorial Committee Web video.

The National Republican Senatorial Campaign Committee has a new tongue-in-cheek Web video marking Tax Day, with a man and woman bemoaning high taxes and spending under President Obama and the Democrats in Congress — and the coming dominance of our Chinese overlords.

“And haven’t you noticed how Barack Obama keeps spending our money,” the man and woman say, “which raises the national debt ceiling to the point that Americans may soon bow down to their Chinese overlords? Hahahaha.”
