The Obama Administration Supports Tibet

a human rights crusader can\'t think of everything

By: streiff (Diary)  |  February 19th, 2010 at 03:33 PM  | 

RESIZE: AAA

The Dalai Lama departs the Palm Room of the White House after meeting with President Obama. Reportedly Obama was “supportive” but not to such a degree that it required that the trash be cleared away.

    …that they had been treated like they were back door trash. At the time, I wasn’t quite sure what that meant. Too bad I didn’t have Obama to demonstrate the principle for me.

      …or DVD’s that won’t work in India?

      Remember when these sluicebags went around the country screaming about how Bush had trashed America’s image across the globe?

      the Dalai Lama… yet. So he’s more supportive of a Free Tibet than a Free Iran.

    to convince the devious Fu-Manchu to buy more US T-Bills.

      That Obama, in his gift giving wisdom, is supposed to have given the Dalai Lama, who has sworn a vow of poverty.

      • konstantine

        Just as a DVD of Obama’s greatest teleprompter speeches that’s encoded to play only in North America.

          heh.

    a GUTTER TRASH! They have no dignity in themselves to be able to show it to anyone else. They are a laughing stock. I do have to wonder how Richard Gere is feeling about his favored person being treated like a piece of trash.

    • bballfan

      You are correct. Just how is Richard feeling about this? Of course he will have an excuse. This administration is just awful.

    doesn’t even begin to describe these people. Well done Barry.

    a beaming picture of Obama with some fraudulent/unsavory (Sharpton? Stern?) character right in front of the White House for to put next to the Dalai Lama pic.

    that the money drop.

      First photo op I’ve ever seen at the dumpster.

    also, it takes talent to diss the Dalai Lama and piss off the Chinese, for a net diplomatic gain of… zero.

    Bring back strategery!

      They don’t call him ZERObama for nothing!

    I suspect even most rank amateurs would accord the Dalai Lama more respect that this.

    I’m pretty sure Obama knows exactly what he’s doing. Most amateurs would have learned to give more respect to world leaders by now. This pic doesn’t show how little he knows about how to treat world leaders. Instead, it shows how little he cares about them.

    • E Pluribus Unum

      He bows to dictators, snubs England. Disses the Dalai Lama.

      I don’t think he and his crew are geniuses, and on balance they’re a bunch of 3rd-tier thugs with low 90′s IQ. But they’re not doing this by accident. Camera crews knew to be there.

      • johnCV

        I also contend that the trash was placed there deliberately for this purpose. Seriously, does anyone think that the WH leaves trash piled up around it anywhere?

        This was a pure visual message to the chicoms that the US (as embodied in 0bama) has no interest in furthering human rights around the world. 0bama intends to borrow as much money as possible for as long as possible, and he desparately needs the Chinese to fund his journey to communism.

        This just reassures them that he heart is in the right place.

        Most. Ethical. Administration. EVAH.

        I didn’t know you were a ‘trasher’……

        you’re gonna scare away the independents….

        the Whitehouse always takes perfectly framed pictures of foriegn dignataries with big bags of trash laying around…get a life

        • Beasley Beesmeal

          Shut up………

        • E Pluribus Unum

          I love it. I’ll own it, man. Yes, I’m a “trasher”.

  • throwback59

    plans of the Obama admin. (Cap & Trade, Health Scare Deform etc) or they are filled with people Bambi has thrown under the bus. Doesn’t it appear that there are 2 blue-jeaned legs sticking out? Could they (hopefully) be those of Rhambo or Gabbs?

  • Scope

    please check out the first picture with Obama and the Dali Lama. A picture speaks more than a thousand words. What do you see in this picture?

      his guest. Think the Dalai Lama ever got a word in edgewise or did he just sit and listen raptly to The One and take a few notes?

    • 6eorge Jetson

      “I repeat”

      The TOTUS was left out of the camera angle.

      when you are a debtor, of a nation that doesn’t recognize human rights, but owns you. I believe that I recently read that Japan holds more of our debt than China. Now we are going after Toyota. Brilliant.

  • obladioblada

    it’s not like the Dalai Lama is someone important like a union leader or something.

    Probably trying to appeal to the Chinese.

    The big question is when with this rank amateurism stop. Obama has made this country into a beggar nation and repeatedly shows the world that what he thinks about America being the greatest nation on earth. He bows and scrapes to oil kings and terrorist facilitators, borrows money from commies, and apologizes to the muslims for defending ourselves. Enough already! George may not always been the best front man, but at least he knew where we stood in the world and didn’t go around begging forgiveness for keeping the world safe on our dime. Europe and Asia can start criticizing when they start shouldering the load, otherwise their opinion matters little. As for the oil kings, if we allowed nuclear power decades ago and drilling here we could tell them to drink their oil. But, the environmental wackos have made us the funders of the very people that want us dead, silly isn’t it.

    It’s rumored that Lincoln like to pass down the basement stairs and out back to escape the White House. In those days, Washington was known as “stinking city” (for different reasons than one might believe today) so “escape” was essential to getting some fresh air.

    Obama was just being nostalgic and showing the Dalai Lama how Lincoln occasionally left. Funny thing is, that seems to be the only way any patriots leave that place nowadays.

    was much worse than the trash piled with organic garden shavings and left over kale outside the White House…the Dali Lama was likely relieved to smell rotting garbage after the session inside.

    What a relief.
