I don't see why anyone would want to watch hours of Red Chinese propaganda. This is basically a corrupt organization, the IOC, in bed with one of the most despicable and repressive governments in history.

It is the 1936 Berlin games all over again. A repressive regime on show for the world trying to prove it is all warm and fuzzy, complete with staging by their own Leni Riefenstahl. What makes it even more disgusting is that various world leaders are there legitimizing the whole spectacle. Then again, the Red Chinese government has been in power compared to the Nazis who were only in power for a short period when they had their Olympic legitimization.

An added bonus is NBC's jingoistic Amerigasm style of coverage of the Olympics. Before NBC spent absurd amounts of money for the rights it was covered properly by other networks, mainly ABC. ABC focused on the Olympics as a sporting event and not a vehicle for jingoism. We would be curious to see how NBC's jingoism and the Chicom propaganda mix, but we have unprogrammed all the NBC networks from the TV for the duration. It is just that bad.

About the only people we are rooting for in all this is the Chinese people. We hope they rise up against their oppressors and give the world a chance to see again what kind of government Red China has.

Lest we forget.
