It is not disturbing. It is predictable.

The Chinese just learned a few things about marketing from us. They wanted to put on the best show, so they had Mini-Milli-Vanilli strut around looking all pretty and lip-synced someone else's voice.

We do that to a lesser degree with almost every show we put on at every major sporting event. You think Janet or Christine actually sing while bouncing attractively around the stage? You think their voice is not mixed, and echoed and reverb'd to the max to make them sound, well, passable to the general public?

I am not saying that this was right, but it is far from shocking. It just goes to show where we are headed with this event. Exactly where we have been.

Now excuse me while I get a McD's "southern chicken" and a commemorative can of Coke.
