I agree, John. The Olympics now a day has become nothing but a boon-doggle at taxayer’s expense. Heck, even the U.S. Postal Service spends millions of dollars as a sponsor of the Olympics and spent millions of dollars last year to send their upper management to the Bejing Olympics—–while losing billions of dollars on operating and getting Congress (i.e. U.S. taxpayers) to bail them out.

And Allen, not only are we considered “unpatriotic” if we disagree, we’re also considered “racists”.

Amen, John! I am so with you on the “unpatriotic” comment. I am so damn sick of hearing people being called unpatriotic for disagreeing with whatever government run horse crap is popular this week.
