An interesting conversation ....

[cranberry]

This must have been a heck of a conversation:

His Holiness, the XIV Dalai Lama, met at the White House this morning with the President and the National Security Advisor to discuss Tibet.

Betcha W broke the ice by saying, "Hello, Dalai!"

Classic.

Can't wait to hear what nickname Shrub gives him.

 

[Gutter]

Gunga galunga... gunga, gunga-galunga.

 

[cranberry]

Hope nobody makes an issue because his holiness wore flip-flops to the White House.

George appears to be trying to look into his soul.

I like how Bush commended the Lama's commitment to non-violence. ::)

That'd be like him commending Jeffrey Dahmer on his dinner choice.
"Well, I wouldn't have gone that way, but it looks mighty tasty!"

 

[Ben_Hecht]

. . . well, hello, Dalai . . .
It's so nice to have you back where you belong.
You're looking swell, Dalai,
we can tell, Dalai,
you're still instructin' those Chinese
about right . . . and wrong . . .

 

[Fenian_Bastard]

"Hey, who's the guy in the sheets?"

 

[Del_B_Vista]

Big hitter, the Lama.

George appears to be trying to look into his soul.

Because he wants to know what one looks like.

Bush wants the whole world to know that the face of terror is not the true faith of the Hari Krishnas. Most Krishnas are peace-loving, law-abiding citizens. Hari Krishnas make an incredibly valuable contribution to our country.

 

[Ace]

How do Hari Krishnas get by these days? You never see them at airports anymore.

 

[The Big Ragu]

Ace, They are boycotting airports because of suspicions that they are being profiled.

 

[Ace]

Solid stand.

Maybe they work behind the scenes fencing all the little bottles of shampoo and ky jelly that people have to leave behind.

You are, of course, assuming he was going to pronounce "Dalai" correctly...

Where you named after Dolly Parton?

 

[poindexter]

My favorite was when he greeted the man in the wheelchair with, “You look mighty comfortable”.
