| Communist party 'just like Buddha' |
| 2007-03-03 |
 China's Communist leader in Buddhist Tibet yesterday labelled the party a "living Buddha" for Tibetans. Zhang Qingli, Tibet's party chief, said: "The Communist Party is like the parent to the Tibetan people and it is always considerate about what the children need." |

| #7 S: Zhang Qingli, Tibet's party chief, said: "The Communist Party is like the parent to the Tibetan people and it is always considerate about what the children need." This is a weird parent indeed, that imprisons, tortures and kills its "children". Most parents would die in their children's place. The Communist Party insists that its children die in its place. |

| #5 yep, fat and jolly It is interesting how the Buddha.. Siddhartha Gautama, an Indian prince, probably a thin ascetic, has morphed into a roly poly Chinese guy with a big belly. |

| #4 well if it has reached the state of "nothingness"... then the party will soon implode into one-ness with the universe and loss of identity. |
