| BBC reporter: "we...saw a train carrying about two dozen military vehicles, including trucks and four-wheel drives, on the rail line that leads to Tibet. The words China's People's Armed Police Rapid Reaction Force were written on the side of one of the vehicles, spotted on the Qinghai-Gansu border... Chinese are deploying extra security forces both inside Tibet and in other areas in western China as the tension continues... situation in Hezuo suggests the protests are continuing"... |

| #7 Jimmy was looking for reelection. Had to 'appear' tough given all the 'man of peace' talk. So it was easy to screw a lot of kids out of years and years of preparation at, for most of them, their one shot for glory. |

| #6 So, RD, if jimmuh had the cajones to do it to the Ruskies in '79, why can't Bush do it now? |

| #5 I may be out of step with some folks but I'm for boycotting the Olympics, personally of course but I'd like to see our spineless gubmint do the same. The only reservation and revulsion that I have for the boycott is that Jimmy 'the assclown' Carter did a boycott in the 1979 Olympics in Moscow, USSR. |

| #4 Looks like extremely scenic country there. Too bad the Chicoms can't keep their filthy hands off of it. As for Richard Gere, no matter what you think of him personally, he does piss off the Chicoms and that has to be a good thing. Have any of our vaunted presidential candidates uttered one little peep about Tibet? I hear crickets but not one little peep from any of our vaunted presidential candidates. Is George Bush still planning on attending the Olympic Games opening ceremonies? Yeah? Thought so. |

| #3 Had the same thought DarthVader. They should form the 420th Light-em Infantry Foreign Volunteer group, but they would have to put down the paper mache and lattes. "But that's, like, a long walk man!" I'm sure they will buy a new bumper sticker for their car just as soon as they finish their bowl of weedies. |

| #2 So... why isn't Richard Gear and all of his Kumbia, gonga smoking friends holding vigils and trying to get to Tibet to involve themselves in the protest to help truly free Tibet? Oh ya, it involves personal risk. Hypocritical assclowns... |
