You know Bush is gonna say "Hello Dalai." You know it, right?

Followed with "It's so nice to have you here where you belong" Awwww cha cha cha.........

_UCK CHINA!

"""Congress has long championed the Dalai Lama; lawmakers also regularly criticize Beijing for human rights abuses and a massive military buildup and claim that China ignores abuse by unsavory foreign regimes in Sudan and Myanmar in its pursuit of energy and business deals.""""


Holy fucking ironies batman!

How can these idiots take such a hypocritical stance without bursting out in an uncontrollable fit of laughter?

President Bush and Congress will stir Chinese anger this week when they honor the Dalai Lama, the exiled spiritual leader of Tibet's Buddhists.

Yet they won't do a fu--ing thing to get China to give Tibet back.

How much oil does Tibet have? Is it at liberation level?

Who cares about angering China?

We already don't care if we anger Turkey, our ally, by messing with a 90-year old issue.

pet, do you mean we pissed on Turkey caus we can or caus it will hurt our progress in Iraq.

Free Tibet!

Fuck China!!

Who cares about angering China?

Since Dumbya is essentially paying fer the war in Iraq with a Chi-com credit card apparently the US has to listen to China much more so than it used to. Personally, Spud blames Nixon fer being such a Puss-tart waaay back in the day when he was being lauded fer "successfully" opening up China which essentailly meant capitualating on the important stuff ie the "one China" policy in order to accrue some photo ops.

America thinks in financial quarters.
China thinks in decades.

Be Well.

Because we can - but I don't know why we have to.
90 years ago there was a horrible incident that the US Congress finds necessary to address.

There are other issues they could be addressing that are far more important than wasting time on a non-US issue.

How much credibility does it give someone like a Dalai Lama to be seen photo-op'ing with George W. Bush?

hey, whatsleft...classic "liberation level" you're funny, man, really...

Yes, but it isn't like this is the first time this has come up. This resolution has come up quite a few times...usually it is beat down by Republican lead Congress. I think it is VERY important to note that Bush spoke in favor of calling this genocide when he was running for President in 2000. But I guess it is OK to FLIP / FLOP on your principals.

Oh, sorry. This thread was about China...the investor in our little War that we need Turkey to help with.

No.

Unfortunately, I think Tibet's main export is Yak wool which is in limited demand in Texass. As such, the Tibetans are unworthy of one of our magnanimous military invasions.

Very clever post, by the way.

Who, after all, speaks to-day of the annihilation of the Armenians?

Umm... Spud does fer one.

It were a fucking genocide and anybody who aint got the balls to call it such is a snivelling POS and written down as such in Spud's Big Book of Cowards.

Be Well.

It reminds me of the USA and its cruel treatment of the California, Oregon, Washington, New York, Massachussetts and Vermont nations. Dammit.

Actually the timing of this Turkey thing seems kind of suspicious. Who started this most recent one?

Very good quote Spud! And good old Nash also penned one of the best songs ever: "Speak Low."

Como se lama ?

I think I read somewhere that he and richard gere were going to party after hitting the local pet emporium , they are having a sale on habitrails and hamsters or maybe it's gerbils .

Gee ractyboy Why don't you tell us about Clinton's love of all things Chinese, and why he gave top secret missle technology to them???

Amd Petrous why you are at it please tell us why House Democrats are provoking Turkey???

""So what to do now?

Pelosi should follow in the steps of Hastert and keep the resolution off the calendar for a vote. Bush should make the call she's been waiting for,""

So why can't Bush call Pelosi?? Seems he wants others to act responsibly while he acts arrogantly.

Mr Fair sez...

Nash also penned one of the best songs ever: "Speak Low."

"Speak low when you speak, love"

Spud luffs that tune and Ogden Nash and especially Billy Holiday.

Spud was not aware that Nash had penned that one, alongside Kurt Weill.

Here's a spuddish favorite song fer you from another contemporary, Noel Coward.

Spud uses it in blog-world sometimes to accentuate the sheer wobbiness of some of the posterchildren hereabouts.

Song's called...

"Here's a penny for your thoughts and incidentally you can keep the change"

Noel was fuggin' hilarious and no coward either.

The "Penis Song" in Monty Python's Meaning of Life is a total Coward piss-take.

Funny stuff.

Be Well.

In the immortal words of Carl Spackler:

So I jump ship in Hong Kong and make my way over to Tibet, and I get on as a looper at a course over in the Himalayas. A looper, you know, a caddy, a looper, a jock. So, I tell them I'm a pro jock, and who do you think they give me? The Dalai Lama, himself. Twelfth son of the Lama. The flowing robes, the grace, bald... striking. So, I'm on the first tee with him. I give him the driver. He hauls off and whacks one---big hitter, the Lama---long, into a ten-thousand foot crevasse, right at the base of this glacier. Do you know what the Lama says? Gunga galunga... gunga, gunga-galunga. So we finish the eighteenth and he's gonna stiff me. And I say, "Hey, Lama, hey, how about a little something, you know, for the effort, you know." And he says, "Oh, uh, there won't be any money, but when you die, on your deathbed, you will receive total consiousness." So I got that goin' for me, which is nice.

Stand by for more lead in our toys and poison in our pet food and threats of dollar dumping...

welcome back Spud! Missed your Instant Mashies Wit! You missed not so much but that our own Larry Mohr outing himself as some kind of weird beastie buttboy and Rob the A hole got banned a few more times...

pretty much the usual tho...hope your technology is working better.

Got no real good song for cept my current fav which is Float On by Modest Mouse...which the lama might actually like too...

I backed my car into a cop car the other day
Well he just drove off sometimes life's ok
I ran my mouth off a bit too much oh what can i say
Well you just laughed it off it was all ok

Alright don't worry even if things end up a bit to heavy

we'll all float on alright

So Float On Spudster!

"Stand by for more lead in our toys and poison in our pet food and threats of dollar dumping...
"

Happy extinction, fools.

My DNA will still be here.


BUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

who cares if we anger china? they're communist.

Payback for all that lead they unleashed on are population.

Communist China should STFU!

The man is a Nobel laureate devoted to peace, despite communist China's rhetoric.

We don't give a damn about their "feelings".

We're more concerned about their actions.

We can fete anyone we choose to without getting communist China's approval.

Well we can send them all those toys that have lead in them with a note that says Fuck Off.
