Olympics 2008

OK, I want to know how much the Chinese government spent bribing the Olympic officials to have the games held there.

I can't stand the government. WTF was the committee thinking?

I am particularly annoyed that there are censors all over the place and they are trying to control what the foreign media can do and say.

If one thing comes from it, let it be the rest of the world seeing what's really up with the Chinese government. The US media won't stand for it, even if it's reported after they get back to the states. The athletes will have first hand accounts of how bad the "mist" is and how it effected them.

I'm really trying to look at the Olympics as a people-to-people/we're the same/we all bleed red type of unifying event above country politics.
