Yeah, yeah yeah, I should definitely clarify what I wrote below...
I listen to a lot of talk radio and you hear various pundits bantering
back and forth on this topic. I was mostly regurgitating what I heard
on the radio, not stating my own position. I LOVE the Olympics. I am
one of those who will watch the games (summer and winter) 24/7. The
purity of athletic competition should not be spoiled by politics...but
people are definitely talking boycott..

This evening's news tells me that the Chinese 'government' is
evicting 13,000 families per month between now and August to
accomodate the Olympics?
Yet, I hear no murmurs of boycott...or?
I have heard rumors boycott for weeks, mostly on the Tibet/human rights
issues from Europe, but I wouldn't be a bit surprised if we boycotted
them, too. We are in a financial/moral war with China, and we could get
a shot in by boycotting the Olympics.
