China is infuriated with the US government, <br />The US did not ban the illegal imports that contained lead base paint, <br />(see Observation Do Tell Mattel) <br />Beijing was upset by Washington welcoming a Buddhist Monk, <br />The Dalai Lama by all means a saint. <br /> <br />Long before there was Mao, long before there was communism, <br />There was belief system that was secure in the Chinese culture, <br />It was Buddhism. <br /> <br />The Dalai Lama expresses autonomy for Tibet, <br />Something that the Communist Party would regret, <br />China in response opted out a meeting to handle Iran that was set, <br />China had supported North Korea and North Viet Nam lest we, as Americans, forget. <br /> <br />The Dalai Lama received the Nobel Peace Prize, <br />Bush is about to present with the Congressional Gold Medal later on Wednesday, October 17,2007, <br />Much to the disappointment and chagrin of Beijing’s officials, with no surprise. <br /> <br />The Communist find it appalling that the USA should a honor a man who expresses: <br />Freedom, spirituality, kindness, non-violence and so on, <br />A complete renegade as far as Beijing is concerned, <br />And so not a blind eye or a deaf ear will be turned. <br /> <br />(10-17-07)<br /><br />Joe Rosochacki<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/made-in-china-5/
