When is the USA going to wake up and realize that the rest of the world really does not like us that much? I don't really understand why, though. It seems that we're always the ones who come in and bail everybody else's butts out of the fire.

Sometimes we bail them out, but much more often we impose our will on them, usually for monetary gain.

And that is the biggest reason we're hated all over the world - in large part, we (not you and me, but "our" government) deserve it.

What's shocking is that I see nobody from "our" side telling them to stuff it where the sun doesn't shine. But then again, maybe I'm not shocked. This is a "new day in America", after all.

Hannity and a NY cop are about to discuss this issue. should be interesting.

Time to cut the funding for the IOC, pronto.

And the United Nations.

Not gonna happen. They (the UN) play too big a part in the coming global government that "our" government is in favor of.

Ba$tards!

"Not welcome", huh?
Well, what the hell are they going to do about it?
A triple-lutz upside somebody's head?

Last time I checked, this Olympics is on AMERICAN SOIL.

We should put "Romeo" at the dip for the IOC, toss them out of the country, haul "Romeo" close up, and steam on at full speed.

I guess I was talking about all the times that the UN pulls our butts into their problems. Somalia is a case in point. As is Kosovo.

It's human nature to resent those who help. In my mother's time, very few people would accept charity, it was considered to be shameful.

Hey, Loan. Isn't there now some historical irony in the strong revolutionary French quotations? Help us out with some relly useful French.

Like: "We proud socialists surrender at the first sign of hostilities."

Well, that settles it NO Olympics' merchandise in my business or my home! I will NOT watch them AGAIN this year. I will NOT support advertising that supports the Olymics. Too "American" my rear end! Let's see how much "American money" they can do without. These people have rocks for brains. Don't they, for one minute, think that if this had happened to one of their countries that America would be the first to welcome their flag? Do they hate us enough to diss our flag?

I think I'm going to become another Pat Buchanan if this crap keeps up.

Ah yes, but is it land "owned" by the federal government? Or actual (very rare) land owned by American citizens?

There's the rub.

Yep. And I agree with you - we should NOT be a part of the UN.

But the thing is, "our" government supports the United Nations, even though many of We the People do not. There is going to be a global government, and the Powers That Be are not about to let the US get out of the UN. In actuality, most of those Powers That Be ARE Americans. But they want to rule the world.

Do the patriotic thing:

Boycott the Olympics.

Don't watch, don't give them a U.S. dollar. The IOC is a bunch of pompous, anti-American, money-grubbing, commie ba$+ards.
