Utterly ridiculous!
The Olympics have always been about nations coming together for non political reasons to compete their athletes against one another. Bush did the right thing by going and not making the Olympics some dumb political statement.
People have trained their whole lives for this moment in time. And that is what it is about.

Always, as in 1936, 1972, 1980, 1984, and that’s just for starters.

I agree with you.
And only a liberal President would make it political. It was Carter who boycotted the 1980 Moscow Olympics.
You are absolutely correct. Even though I don’t watch it much, I totally agree with you.

Absolutely.
The thread poster may not realize they are espousing jimmah carter think.
Carter boycotted the Russian Olympics - which went on just fine without our wonderful American athletes, many of whom were forever cheated out of the goal they had worked/trained for all their lives.
That's called cutting off your nose to spite our face - or, in this scenario, in true Marxist mode, cutting off everyone ELSES noses ...
