His carrying the flag may even eclipse when he kicks China's butt in the 1500meter.

I was hoping for Dara Torres, but this choice suits me fine.

I can see it now. The open borders types who like to blur the lines between legal and illegal will use this to support an amnesty. I bet Obama and McCain both use it in their campaigns.

Bernard Legat, an immigrant from Kenya, is our best bet for a medal in the 1500.

No need to insult me. I don’t see how the fact that he’s a naturalized citizen detracts from him carrying the flag. My own father is a naturalized citizen and he’s more patriotic than native-born liberals!

Jennie Finch, a native-born American from La Mirada, CA is our best bet to pitch the US to yet another gold medal in women's softball.
Bring the Heat, Jennie!

What the **** does this have to do with Lomong- a LEGAL naturalized citizen?
I guess I'll chalk this up to another political Rorschach test.
