Just saw the final and the thank you to Bush comment on the tube here on the west coast. (I hate these time delays).

Anyway, wonderful, I am glad they did not edit it out for us out here in Granola Head Land.
It has been a wonderful olympics. First Phelps, I absolutely love Shawn Johnson (she is totally America’s sweetheart), and now the beach volleyball team!

Go USA!

“what did Kobe Bryant say?
Summarized: that America is the greatest country ever, and he's always been proud to be an American.”

***********************************

Yes that was cool of Kobe, despite Cris Collinswoth questions digging at Kobe as it were uncool to say “I'm proud to be an American”. If you can find the interview watch it, Cris Collinsworth has lost any respect I may have ever had for him, biggest jerk on NBC. Tell me why would it be uncool to say “The US is the best country and I'm proud to live in it” and who would think that's uncool

I watched it last night live and also saw that. I was wondering how much play it was going to get in the news. I'm not holding my breath. But it was very cool that she was apparently inspired enough that she made a special thanks.

W is a good guy.

Liberals despise competition. Nobody should have to lose because that’s not fair. Good athletes are almost never liberals. For that matter, liberals tend to be humorless; they don’t “get” jokes and their attempts at wit tend to be embarrassing. Their smiles are not genuine expressions of joy; they are insincere vanities.

Kerri Walsh, the happy gold medal winner, is nicknamed, “Six feet of sunshine”. Normal instinct tells you she’s no liberal.
She couldn’t be.

FRegards,
LH

I saw it this morning, very cool!

I too am surprised that the NBC folks didn’t spontaneously combust!

Don't think so...not everyone on that list is/was a conservative. Danny DeVito? Michael Douglas? Please. And notably not on that list is one who always talks against genocide in Darfur - Don Cheadle.

When I saw that photo of the President chillin with the USA volleyball women I thought it was awesome. Notice how winners love “Mr. President”? My ex can’t stand him—pure envy. Take that, MSNBC! Now it will be expunged from the network website.

I absolutely love how these photo moments aggravate liberals customary envy of winners. Winners LOVE President Bush. Ha!

PS: These women are so relaxed and confident in their scanty attire and Mr. Bush is so ‘father-of-the-bride’. Cool.

The one other thing I take from these women is that I can do a lot better. Where are my running shoes?
