We told you just yesterday that the Chinese appreciated the humor of Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner, who makes absurd statements about the largest spending and borrowing plans of any administration in American history. Reuters has the story:

“Chinese assets are very safe,” Geithner said in response to a question after a speech at Peking University, where he studied Chinese as a student in the 1980s. His answer drew loud laughter from his student audience

China apparently teaches its students to do arithmetic and accounting, while US schools apparently do not. The proof is that Obama’s numbers don’t add up, yet no one in the American media or political establishment appears to have noticed — otherwise they’d be laughing like the Chinese students at the risible assertions of Tim Geithner.
