They oppose everything. They will always find the dark side in any situation. It's the easiest way to go. If Bush went into Watts they'd accuse him of some ulterior motive. If he were for amnesty, they would oppose it.
Why are they protesting high food prices? Don't they understand that corn fuels will alleviate Global Warming?

BEIJING, Oct. 16 — Chinese officials warned the United States not to honor the Dalai Lama, saying a planned award ceremony for the Tibetan spiritual leader would have “an extremely serious impact” on relations between the countries.
Speaking at a Foreign Ministry briefing and on the sidelines of the Communist Party’s ongoing 17th National Congress, the officials condemned the Dalai Lama as a resolute separatist and said foreign leaders must stop encouraging his “splittist” mission.
“Such a person who basely splits his motherland and doesn’t even love his motherland has been welcomed by some countries and has even been receiving this or that award,” Tibet’s Communist Party boss, Zhang Qingli, told reporters during the congress.
In recent months, China has stepped up its attacks on the Dalai Lama even though Chinese officials and envoys from the Tibetan leader have engaged in a on-and-off dialogue over terms of reconciliation.
While Beijing says it is willing to allow the Dalai Lama to return to China if he promises to respect Chinese sovereignty over Tibet, they have dismissed his efforts to work for a “middle way” that gives Tibet a higher measure of autonomy under continued Chinese rule.
The Dalai Lama once said, "Remember that not getting what you want is sometimes a wonderful stroke of luck."
He would certainly know.
The leader of Tibetan Buddhism, Tenzin Gyatso was only five years old when he was installed as the 14th Dalai Lama in 1940.
Almost twenty years later, he supported Tibet in a fight against Chinese rule.
Forced to flee, the Dalai Lama has lived in exile in Dharamsala since then.
Today he is to receive the Congressional Medal of Honor in a ceremony at the Capitol in Washington, DC.

hmmm, is the Dalai Lama Christian?
You would think it would be right wingers who have such a problem with it.
I think intelligent people have a problem with Bush, once again causing tension between the USA and another country.
A real leader, would do these kinds of things, one country at a time, if he wanted to preserve his own, not all of them at once.
