What a weirdly constructed article. The title is totally misleading. The meeting isn't cancelled, it's just postponed. How difficult was it to put that in the headline?

Are you asking him to break the BN rules.It is hard, because that is not sensational enough. If it had stated "postponed" then this thread would never have been started.

"Mr Obama has changed his position on Tibet since his election campaign."
Are we surprised by this?
Hmmm I read the article three times and no where in it says that the meeting in Washington DC has been postponded. It does stated that this is the first sitting President to not meet with the Dalai Lama.
Oh and for the record both Mr. Obama and Mrs. Clinton have change there views allot since Mr. Bush was in office back the they both called on Mr. Bush to not go to China for the Olympic Games. Now they are acting like China's little lap dogs. Hmm talk about being hypecritical.
Mr. Obama Hope and Change you got to love it for you folks who voted for him it now stands for I hope he decide not to change his view again.
The Buddhist monk arrived in Washington on Monday for a week of meetings with Congressional leaders, celebrity supporters and interest groups, but the president will not see him until after he has made his first visit to China next month.
Mr Obama then sent a delegation to the Dalai Lama's home in exile in India last month that confirmed the meeting would be deferred.
Are you asking him to break the BN rules.
Where does it say that he will never meet with the man? :roll:
For whatever it's worth, I think Obama is being a complete idiot. But the headline WAS misleading. I don't like to be mislead. It pisses me off.
Regardless if postponed and not cancelled, this is a pretty good indication of what kind of President we have. And I think this "change-on-the-run"-"work-in-progress" style is more typical of Progressives. The President is not going to stand on ingrained values or ideology. He's going to deal with each issue as they come up. Little consideration to precedence. Right now he knows he needs to appease China. Old friends will have to deal with it. The important thing is making America into a more fair place for all of its citizens, hierarchy excepted.

Barack Obama cancels meeting with Dalai Lama 'to keep China happy' - Telegraph
Has this President of the USA no moral fibre in his being?
I call BS on this, all we are seeing is Mr. Obama saying one thing when Mr. W Bush is in office and when he is he goes changing his views him and his lap dog Hillarey who also called on Mr. W Buch not to go to Chine for the opening Cerms.
You know what the Difference between Mr. Obama and the last three sitting Presidents is at least both Mr. Bush Sr.,Mr. W Bush and Mr. Clinton have integedery when it comes to the Dalai Lama. Oh and here is a nice little fact for all of you Anti-W. Bush crowd guess what Mr. W Bush award the Dalai Lama the Nations Highest Civilian Honor The Medal of Freedom over the objections of Chine.
What does Mr. Obama do snub him and bow to the Red Menece.
So here is another example of his Hope and Change. Lets hope he doesn't change his mind again :doh
I may br singing about the greatness of the letter W anytime soon now but yes President Bush did right with that symbolic yet good task of honoring the torn in the Chinese ass.
