The head of San Francisco's Board of Supervisors (Aarron Teskin (sp?)) is very angry at Newsom, calling this "a PR event organized by the government of China."

nbc 11 in SF has a reporter who is a torch bearer on the Bus with a phone and they say the chinese gov took control of the operation last night and they are going to have the ceremony as the airport.

The scuttlebutt one reporter shared is it looked like the chinese government was allowed to call the shots since last noght and All the agencies involved had to do it their way..
What a mess whoever was in charge.
