I would never favor a boycott of any kind. Keep politics out of sports for the sake of all of the athletes that have invested their entire lives on these games. There are many other forums for protesting China's abuses. On another subject, who is Cheryl and why does CNN continue to publish her childish, insane rantings. I have commented a number of times on this site and have never seen my comment published. But Cheryl manages at least a few rants per subject and they all seem to get through. What's up CNN, is she related to somebody at CNN? Does she pen this stuff during her recess time? I am never in favor of bringing politics to the Olympics. I would never favor a boycott of any kind.

So please stop blaming Obama suppoters for things that they have not done. I think boycotting would definitely send a message, although, I'm not sure how effective unless others also boycott.

He needs to stay here until his time is up to leave the White House. He earned a bad name around the world - fair and square. There are many here in the United States who have no respect left for him. Bush is not fit to go anywhere. He needs to stay here until his time is up to leave the White House.

But, we know Bush is just so out of touch, that he doesn't get it. Why don't we just give China the KEY to America and let them do whatever the hell they want, we've already given them everything else. YOU can't go anywhere or buy anything that doesn't have a MADE IN CHINA stamp on it. Geeeez....what ever happened to the MADE IN THE USA worker!!! Kinda like someone else who keeps putting her daughter on the stump and then when she gets asked certain questions all of a sudden everyone is in an uproar stating "how dare they bring this issue up!" ha! ha! What a load of crap!! Bush needs to just stop with his stupid antics. Enough already. If Bush had a brain, which we all know he doesn't he will NOT go to the olympic game.

We are on the Dark Side now. The US government doesn't care about human rights anymore, which is why we are allowed to torture and deny people the right to habeas corpus. Instead of working to get China to join us on the Bright Side, we find it easier and more convenient to move to them. After all, the Chinese model of "free-market" capitalism under a totalitarian government is a very appealing direction for the Bushies. Get with it, Nancy! We are on the Dark Side now.
