I think it would be more of an insult to our own athletes. The guys/gals have trained hard for an opportunity that comes only comes around every four years. They may not even make the team next time. Besides, politics are supposed to be pushed aside for the Olympics.

This is a very good point.
I am looking foward to it myself and hope they play our national anthem many times.

Yep, the best stance on this issue is to root for our competitors to take the gold in every event.
