Washington Post columnist Sally Jenkins labeled the controversies at the Salt Lake City Games an "anti-American binge," ...

If you use your imagination a little, it is interesting to think what would have been the reaction if there were a terrorist act at the Olympics. Say the kidnapping and murder of the Russian hockey team. I think everyone would agree that the so-called controversies would become forgotten quickly. It shows that the Europeans have lost perspective and are self-centered on their trivial concerns.

An excellent rejoinder BTW.

Excellent point.

Thanks, my friend.

Isn't it amazing that with the USA security, nothing happened at the Olympics, so we're negatively critisized. That is, in itself, the most irrational statement immaginable. Euroweenies is an appropriate label.
