"Disappearing into a warehouse, only to re-emerge on a bus half an hour later."
Somehow it's fitting. The Olympic 'flame' arrives in San Francisco--- only to be "in-and-out of the closet"...

San Francisco democrat politicians are so incompetent, they couldn’t properly manage a McDonalds Restaurant for 15 minutes.

Awarding the olympics to China was a grave mistake IMO. This torch thing isn’t the farce. The farce was awarding these games to a nation like China in the first place.

I’m not sure which will be more interesting. What occurs inside the Olympic events or outside.

On the contrary. The city would do very well managing a McDonalds since both are very pro homosexual.

Oh how sweet it is.
In San Fran, no less.
City of gays, gaggles and Gavin.
Back in the early 60's when I first visited San Francisco, on may way to being stationed in Japan, I fell in love with this beautiful city.
Of course, that changed when I returned from Nam in 67 and received a less than "hospitable" welcome.
Hey, Gavin, how do you like them apples now? Tee hee hee!
Couldn't happen to a nicer Moonbat and the Socialist Capital of the U.S.

I was disappointed watching Fox news today and hoping to see the torch relay, but after a half and hour I gave up

The IOC and the UN seem to be run by the same people.

Turnabout is fair play since they will have all their eyes watching visitors.

It does seem like it doesn’t it. I wouldn’t be at all surprised that members have shifted back and forth before either.

Look at this lovely, liberal comment after the article from John in San Fransicko:
"It's funny that so many people are organizing to protest the killings in Tibet while the U.S. government is bombing innocent people in Iraq every day. The U.S. government is building A WALL along our southern borders. And the U.S. government has killed more people in the world than China has ever done. This country needs a revolution."
Barf!
