His Holiness

by Stacie

I remember hearing George Bush refer to the Dalai Lama as "His Holiness," and I remember wondering if that was just one more offense that Bush's conservative Christian followers were supposed to shut up about. Answer: Yes, indeed.

"Whoever can speak, speaking now to the whole nation, becomes a power, a branch of government, with inalienable weight in law-making, in all acts of authority. It matters not what rank he has, what revenues or garnitures. The requisite thing is, that he have a tongue which others will listen to; this and nothing more is requisite. The nation is governed by all that has tongue in the nation: Democracy is virtually there."
