Silly. Like this entire thread.

"You are using the word "olympics" right now. Are you infringing on the copyright. Of course not."

Ummm... I am not using it to advertise. I am not using it for promotion. Get a grip.

Okay, whatever, you are all correct. I'm GLAD the Prez told those commie wimps like Ueberroth to shove it. Just goes to show that the bulge in those jeans ain't no sock. And when GM complains about his ads referring to Cheney as the "Cadillac" of vice-presidents, I hope he reminds them of the military might at his disposal and snaps them back into line.

So, if a CBS newsman says, "stay tuned for some Olympic results, right after this break," he's violated the law? That *could* be viewed as a for-profit use, right?

Bush has lawyers, too. They must think he's on solid ground.

You just made the point for those who are arguing with you. If the ad had referred to W as the Olympic president then your hypothetical allusion to an ad referring to Cheney as "the 'Cadillac' of vice-presidents" would be appropriate. The Bush ad that states that two more nations are competing at this year's Olympic games as free nations would be more akin to saying that thanks to the Bush tax cuts more families can afford to buy a Cadillac instead of a lesser car. For that matter it's probably comparable to Daschle and his buds ridiculing the tax cuts as allowing the wealthy to buy a new Lexus but the middle class can only afford a new muffler.
