Three Cheers for Bob Costas - He is outraged and intends to honor the murdered Israeli athletes with his own on-air moment of silence. That would be worth watching right there, I think. As for the abominable Palestinian threat to the IOC, boos should go out for them when they walk by. They’re the racists, and proud of it!

Really? He's going to do that? Wow!

I have the idea that Costas is a liberal, but of course there are still a few liberals who support Israel (which they all used to do). However I may differ with his political philosophy, Bob Costas' stock just went up in my book. But then, back in the day even old time liberal Howard K. Smith was appalled when the IOC forced the Republic of China Olympic team to not use their name and flag in the games.

I always preferred ABC's Olympic coverage, but the late ABC "newsman" Peter Jennings (who was notoriously pro-PLO) never, to the end of his days, referred to the murderers as "terrorists" but only as "guerrillas." Despicable.

I have decided not to watch the Olympics because of this pro-islam pandering and capitulation — but I did catch the opening ceremony when the teams were marching in just as the Israeli team came by - Costas made good on telling the world about the refusal to have any recognition of the 40th anniversary of the murders. I agree that Costas is a Lib, but not your typical new brand. Also read on Debbie Schlussel’s blog how Romney refused to have any acknowledgment back at the 2002 games in Utah. How is he different from Barry Soetoro again??? Crike.
