China should spend some time issuing warnings on the toxic products it exports world-wide.

As I recall, when he met Clinton, it was a quiet affair, so as not to bother the Chinese. Now we’ll see if Bush decides to change the plans so as not to irritate the Chinese.

I wonder if the Dali Lama will grant President Bush total consciousness.

Such a person who basely splits his motherland and doesnt even love his motherland has been welcomed by some countries and has even been receiving this or that award, Tibets Communist Party boss, Zhang Qingli, told reporters during the congress.Are they talking about Al Gore again?

For many years now I have tried to care about the Dalai Lama, but don’t. Maybe if he converted to Christianity, I would like him more...

I think the message to China is clear, you guys start behaving around the world or we do this. Same with Putin, you halt your nuclear activities with Iran, or the missile defense system goes up in Eastern Europe. Pretty simple, play with the big boys, you're going to get hurt.

They will stop selling lead tainted kid’s toys to us until we say we are sorry?

So we Americans are uninvited to the Beijing Olympics? No but don't plan on bringing any religious objects.
Beijing, Oct. 12, 2007 (CWNews.com) - The Chinese government reportedly will not allow visitors to bring religious objects such as rosary beads or holy water when they travel to Beijing for the Olympic Games next year.
The report on restrictions did not clearly indicate whether visitors would be allowed to bring Bibles into China. Nor was there any indication whether the host nation would allow Olympic teams to bring chaplains-- a practice that many countries have followed regularly.

Funny how big bad China fears a humble, physically weak and elderly gentleman.

This isn’t the first time the Dalai Llama has been honored here in the U.S. He addressed Congress a few years back and several President’s have met with him. China needs to get a life. They completely squashed the country known as Tibet but they did not completely crush the spirit of those people.

I don't see why not. He did do it for a lowly greens keeper once.
Although I think the Lama probably found Carl a bit more entertaining that he would Pres. Bush.

We could always rotate a company of Green Berets through Monterey to learn Tibetan. We could offer to delay this move if the commies quit supporting Iran.

The Dalai Lama, a Nobel laureate, has lived in exile since the Chinese army crushed an uprising in his homeland in 1959 Curious... that's not how the Tibetans see the 1959 invasion of their sovereign nation by the Chinese Communist Army. Hmm..
