The Irony of the State Dinner

Earlier this evening we gave a state dinner to a dictator/communist and the head of a government that has no idea what human rights mean.  Of course we should be talking with China, but to give this type of treatment to government that presently is jailing the Nobel peace prize winner is not the message we should be sending to the rest of the world. 

He was served lobster, dry aged rib eye (what they couldn't spring for filet mignon?) with buttermilk crisp onions, a pear salad and apple pie. 

At least Michelle wore the appropriate color.  Does anyone else see the irony in the Nobel peace prize thing?  The winner of the 09 peace prize is hosting a dinner for the jailer of the 10 winner? 

I applaud the Republican leadership that turned down the invitations to this mockery.
