Hu dat? Oh, no worries...just a pro-Tibet political dissenter. I hope ObamaHu had a nice dinner last night.

Oh yeah, I'm sure Obama agrees with "Hu dat?" on something: Gun control works!

I also don't see the point of going to dinner with Hu. They would've just been hungry again an hour later anyway.

Is this picture of a 'pro-Tibet political dissenter'? According to the website you took this picture from, it is a picture of Christians being executed for practicing Christianity - this has nothing to do with political dissent.

Please, even for snide political use, know what you are doing, or at least put some effort into it. It's extremely misleading and unkind to use the persecution and murder of people for one's own political end and to twist their suffering into something it is not.

Thanks for correcting me. The scenario makes it much more palatable to some atheists as well as folks like "Dr." Hansen who prefers the Chinese style of government.

So sowwy. I still hope ObamaHu had a wonderful dinner last evening discussing how well gun control works.

ETA: the website I took it from had the following:

"She was one of nearly a hundred Tibetan teenagers executed for merely talking about Tibetan sovereignty."

Posting in baby-talk doesn't negate your responsibility. It only typifies your attitude that anything that you can use to make snarky comments is acceptable.

Not to mention the other vulgar comments made by others in this thread.
