Inverted Logic
On Wednesday, George Bush is due to attend a ceremony at the US Capitol where the Dalai Lama will receive a Congressional Gold Medal, a top US civilian award.
Tibet's Communist Party Secretary of Tibet, Zhang Qingli, lambasted the exiled spiritual leader for trying to "split the motherland".
"We are furious," he said. "If the Dalai Lama can receive such an award, there must be no justice or good people in the world."
Loonies...
