disgusting !

What did the Dalai Lama do to deserve this... doesn't he have enough problems than to entertain Democrats trying to shore up their international creds!

I think it's my karma to puke.

Perhaps in the cosmic cycle of birth, death and reincarnation, Peliosi will in the next life come back as a jelly-fish, floating in the sea. Drifting along until she comes upon and stings her ancient foe a barracuda... the reincarnation of Hillary.

All kidding aside... everyone please write to Bush and ask him to reconsider his trip to China unless there is real negotiation with Tibet. We have cut them enough slack... we have used the power of capitalism to loosen their economy... now we have to show them our moral conviction. The athletes may go, but Bush and tourists should be discouraged.

Nancy Pelosi might want to show a little of her leadership within her own crumbling party and quit playing to the Hollywood supporters of the Dali Lama. While what is tranpiring in China is horrific, she is such a grandstander that if she wore platform shoes, she'd get a nosebleed.

"Everyone is entitled to their own opinions, but they are not entitled to their own facts."
Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan

The Dalai Llama? Did she pet his nice furry pelt?

I agree with Beebop. That's really a Dali-esque mental picture!

PELOSI is so stupid , she knows nothing about China and Tibet, and I think she has no right to comment on China and Tibet, human rights in Tibet is good and better than the time Dalai Lama was there, and in China ethnical Tibetans have more rights than ethnical Han Chinese, the violence , lootings and killings in Tibet thesedays were orgnized by some radical Tibetans, Pelosi should shut up and go back to learn some history and chinese today's social cultures, and then come back to comment !!!

President Nancy Pelosi said she and the ten congressmen will support the Dalai Llama. What can she do? What is the U.S. position on this? Does she know all the facts or acting like a grandmother? "That alright baby I'll help you against those bad people." I wonder if she put on one of those Dalai Llama outfits for a photo shot? Thank you President Pelosi!!

Tibet today is much , much better than Iraq and Afganastan!!!!!so Pelosi , what do u think??lol!!!!!!!!

While I find it mighty big of Ms Pelosi to stand with the Dalai Lama, what does she propose that we do. I think all or most of us have those same feelings. China has persecuted the Tibetians for-ever, no one has ever helped. It's a crying shame to me, that the U.S. helps everyone else in the world, but who dares to confront China? Allow the Tibetians to live in peace. That is all they have ever wanted.

Once again Pelosi is overstepping her congressional powers and is trying to make US foreign policy. Before this, she did with with Syria. Regardless of your stance on Tibet vs China, she CAN NOT be making such policy statements and should be reprimanded!

Does Pelosi really know something about Tibet?! NO. The Pelosi Lama knows nothing about it.

Why don't she come back here an do something constructive for the folks that pay her salary, like the gas prices, pending recession, maybe passing some laws to protect our folks. She has been a poor Speaker an she might have left her brains in SF. My guess she will call for a boycot of the Olympics.

who would want a run for cover coward's support anyway. Polesi cannot be trusted to stay around if the going gets tough.

What Dalai Llama has done is actually betraying buddaha and betraying the common belief of people living in the world-peace.

"Ense petit placidam sub libertate quietem", Massachusetts State Motto, or read in plain English "By the sword we seek peace, but peace only under liberty." Apparently, people of chinese ancestry neither understands nor appreciates the true spirit of America. Tibetans are engaging a fight over the basic value of the American independent war, i.e., "Live free or die: Death is not the worst of evils."

Pelosi Who???

i think this is a wonderful gesture on behalf of America..i love the Dalai Llama

I am very proud that Senator Pelosi refuses to take China's oppression sitting down, unlike Bush who only cares about commercial interests, not the Tibetans!

Unless she made this visit as a private citizen, she should be barred from returning to the United States. As a private citizen, she has every right to visit anyone she wants. Anyway, I hope they both had a productive visit.
