Perhaps The Most Important Photo In The History Of The Decline Of The United States

Our principles are now vanquished and replaced by obligations of government debt.

Solidarity with Tibet and the Dalai Lama should never be subordinate.  Today, instead of Mother Liberty, we suckled at the breast of RED Chinese Totalitarianism.  

The exiled Tibetan leader was forced to leave the White House and his (private) meeting with President Obama this morning via a service exit, in order to placate our Chinese overlords.

Every President and Congressional member for the past 30 years should be ashamed today as they witness the direct result of their fiscal abandon.  Washington deserves to be humbled and ridiculed tonight where ever across the globe that freedom still matters. 

We have traded our national principles for successful bond auctions.

Exiled Tibetan spiritual leader the Dalai Lama walks out the doors of the Palm Room of the White House by trash bags waiting to be picked up due to delays from the snow storms of last week in Washington, DC, February 18, 2010 after meeting with US President Barack Obama.

The Dalai Lama appeared in private at the White House Thursday and said US President Barack Obama was 'supportive' in a meeting that drew angry protests from China.  AFP PHOTO/Jim Watson (Photo credit should read JIM WATSON/AFP/Getty Images)

Maybe to God they are not mutually exclusive.

I"m tolerant and understanding also. People have had the misfortune to be born communists, Buddhists, fundamental Christians and even into families of idiots, criminals and insane people.

I guess I'm a radical, leftist, progressive pinko or something like that because I think people should try to be rational and believe what experience tells them is true.

It isn't easy telling the truth as reason and experience dictates. Every fundamentalist Muslim, Jew, Christian, Buddhist, Hindu, communist and .... God knows who else, will hate me for it.

What about being raised by hippies?

[James Street]

Hippies, born again Christians, lapsed Christians, vegetarians, homosexuals, homophobes, frutarians, flat earthers, reincarnated scorpions, libertarians and yes, even Austrian School economists.

I'm not a Christian so I don't forgive these people but I tolerate them because I want them to tolerate me.

I think every citizen of the United States of America should be embarrassed. This is the most unbelievably weak move ever made by a president. I am ashamed that I voted for the man and will make sure that I do not repeat the mistake in the next election.
