[BlogEntry] Wow, China is Pissed, Huh? Good.

China is learning this week that the rest of the world doesn't care what they say. As I blogged previously, His Holiness The Dalai Lama is coming the US to be awarded a Congressional Medal this week (tomorrow, in fact). China has a whole team of people who do nothing but run around ahead of His Holiness and say, "Listen, if you let him in your country we will be very unhappy with you." Sometimes it works, sometimes not so much. I am very pleased with my government for going through with the ceremony. China, in protest, pulled out of some meeting about Iran. I say that we, in protest, should pull out of the Olympics. See how fast they change their tune.
I'll never understood how they got to be host in the first place. "We need room for stadium! Go destroy that 100ft high 1000 year old statue of Buddha now!"
