Opening Ceremonies for the Beijing Olympics today......
I almost vomited when they had the gall to play Imagine by John Lennon
Sorry....can't get over the fact that the International Olympic Committee took China's money and allowed the games to take place in Bejing.
China gets to portray themselves as the world's ambassadors, while human rights violations are plentiful just outside the camera's view.....
And for what?...So the IOC members can look the other way and line their pockets with dirty money ...
I feel terrible for the athletes, who are just pawns in this PR money grab
The Olympic Motto is...Faster, Higher, Stronger- Together......
If you are a member of the IOC you might want to add Richer .....
