]]> <![CDATA[Look Who Also Probably Fucked Eliot Spitzer, Guys!]]> @3cardkitty: Oh wow. So you pretty much know when there's something they don't want you to see. All I heard here was that they had rehersal footage and switched to that when the protest started. So, dumb question here, what about internet news? How does that work?
Strange that they did report on it later, maybe they figured they couldn't repress it because it was being shown all over the world.
Monday should be very interesting.... probably not in a good way. Cross fingers it doesn't get violent.

]]> <![CDATA[Look Who Also Probably Fucked Eliot Spitzer, Guys!]]> @vegemitekid: Actually, their footage of the Greece ceremony was much worse -- they had dozens of stories about how the security was so great. The international TV coverage is a great example of companies bending over for China. China puts a 10-second delay on live coverage from international networks that broadcast here to a limited audience -- CNN specifically. So if something comes up they don't like, they push a button and the screen goes black. We've been seeing a whole lot of black screens lately. There was nothing pre-recorded seen here, just a black screen. Oddly enough, they did started reporting the protest four days later....
The torch comes to Tiananmen Square on Monday. Should be interesting.

]]> <![CDATA[Look Who Also Probably Fucked Eliot Spitzer, Guys!]]> @ceejeemcbeegee (star deficient): With all due respect, as a former resident of South Africa, the reasons for abolishing Apartheid had nothing to do with the Olympics. The business leaders, particularly the Oppenheimer's of DeBeers, engaged the leaders of the ANC in secret negotiations held in England in the 1980's in which the beginnings of the mostly peaceful transition were initiated. And let us NEVER forget the tremendous contribution of Nelson Mandela and the rest of the peacemakers. MADIBA!!!!!

I agree, it's a rock and a hard place. I've known Olympic athletes, and they work their asses off. But at the same time, you have a world stage where you can really take a stand against injustices. It's just... a pickle.

And mind you , they are only calling for a TV boycott. The athletes would still be able to compete, they just wouldn't get TV exposure.

@goodcheapfun: Yes, the athletes should be boycotting. They're all doing it for themselves anyway, and they know it and we know it. They don't need our TV applause.

@briardahl: And China should not be allowed to particpate, let alone host.

]]> <![CDATA[Look Who Also Probably Fucked Eliot Spitzer, Guys!]]> Why does BK need rebranding? If I can pick up fries at 3 AM, they're doing everything properly. Also in Europe (haven't been to a US BK in years), they play music videos all day, called "BK TV", which once caused me to miss the last subway of the night back to my apartment. True story. So my point is: if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

]]> <![CDATA[Look Who Also Probably Fucked Eliot Spitzer, Guys!]]> @3cardkitty: Or even- boycott anything made in China. That said, there wouldn't be much left to buy, but China has such a huge belief in what it's doing that they will probably only take notice of the rest of the world if we hit 'em where it hurts. If you boycott the olympics, the only ones to suffer will be the athletes. The Tibet protest at the torch ceremony in Greece wasn't even shown on the Chinese news- they cut to prerecorded footage.

Also, witch stoning? I thought the preferred methods were drowning & burning ;) But seriously, these people employed this woman as a witch in the first place, so they knew what she was from the start. Is there a consumer affairs for when you don't get what you pay for from witches?

vegemitekid

]]> <![CDATA[Look Who Also Probably Fucked Eliot Spitzer, Guys!]]> An Olympic boycott isn't going to change China. If anything it will whip people up into more of a nationalistic fervor than they're already in. Just saying. How about boycotting American sponsors of the Olympics -- you know, those companies that have funded the rise of China to the world's fourth largest economy.

Also, "the biggest whore in Washington"? Nice slut-shaming, Moe.

]]> <![CDATA[Look Who Also Probably Fucked Eliot Spitzer, Guys!]]> I'm just glad to see that Alan Keyes is now a member of the constitutional law party and will be around for the general. Having a presidential election without him would be soooo boring.

What was it that Oscar Wilde said...."there is no such thing as good and evil...just charming and tedious"?

The only thing Wonkette ever did that pissed me off is that they helped out Keyes' adopted daughter.

If it was Keyes himself...a more awesome thing couldn't exist...but I thought it was bullshit to out his nonpolitical and evidently noncrazy daughter. But just take note Moe...Ana Marie Cox is an editor at Time now...so being evil has its benefits.

]]> <![CDATA[Look Who Also Probably Fucked Eliot Spitzer, Guys!]]> My crew coach in college qualified for the Olympics twice. Once in '76, he threw his back out while qualifying and was unable to compete in the games. He qualified again in '80, with his brother, and they couldn't go. You can't mention the word "Carter" without hearing more swears than you've heard in your life. It took away something he deserved for basically no reason. The athletes earned and deserve the right to compete.

Also, Obama, just say no to Casey. I don't need no anti-choicer on my ballot, tyvm.

]]> <![CDATA[Look Who Also Probably Fucked Eliot Spitzer, Guys!]]> @nerdsausage is white male privilege: I feel the same way about Pelosi. These days she seems to be dancing around issues instead of being direct. Like this whole super delegates thing. I feel like it's just a veiled backing of Obama, which is fine & totally her perogative, but just say it!

Who knows though, maybe not being a liberal menace allows her to be more effective working with the Repubs. But I just wish the Dems would have more of the hardass, fuck-you attitude that the Repubs do when they're in charge. They just roll all over us when it's their turn & we should be doing the same. I don't care about being above that stuff - I just want our issues/bills pushed through, damn it!

marin79

]]> <![CDATA[Look Who Also Probably Fucked Eliot Spitzer, Guys!]]> Also, good for Mark MacKinnon, although his reason (not wanting to go negative against someone he likes and respects) makes me think that there's something sorta screwed about how our presidential campaigns work now.

nerdsausage is a busysausage

]]> <![CDATA[Look Who Also Probably Fucked Eliot Spitzer, Guys!]]> Pelosi is normally pretty on the ball when it comes to Tibet, and I don't really think a boycott would be effective at much of anything except enraging the Chinese public (who see the Tibet issue very differently from the rest of the world), but that's a weakass way to put it. She's so tepid. If I'm going to have the rest of my family give me crap for having the most liberalest woman in the whole world as my representative, couldn't she be more of an actual liberal menace?

nerdsausage is a busysausage

]]> <![CDATA[Look Who Also Probably Fucked Eliot Spitzer, Guys!]]> @marin79: Yeah, it wasn't a boycott -- South Africa was not allowed to participate in the Olympics. Thing is, they weren't allowed to participate for something like ... 1964 to 1992, maybe? It's not like the three-decade IOC ban just gradually nagged them into a change.

briardahl

]]> <![CDATA[Look Who Also Probably Fucked Eliot Spitzer, Guys!]]> @ceejeemcbeegee (star deficient): First of all, why don't you have a star??? BOOOO!

Second of all, I'm still trying to figure out how I feel about a potential Olympics boycott. One one hand, you have the obviously disgusting violation of human rights, but on the other, doesn't having the Olympics that tons of people watch give NBC and others the opportunity to draw more attention to what is actually going on? I almost feel like that will draw more attention than a boycott that might just anger a lot of Americans. Plus, I do feel for the athletes who have worked so hard. But that said, I don't know what the right answer is here.

Plus, I thought the last time we boycotted was b/c of Americans being held hostage in Iran. (Am I wrong?) If that's the case, how did that end Apartheid?

]]> <![CDATA[Look Who Also Probably Fucked Eliot Spitzer, Guys!]]> Nancy Pelosi has released a statement that boycotting the Olympics in China in protest to their violence against Tibetan protesters and, oh, I dunno, their blatant disregard for human rights and the environment, would be unfair because some athletes worked too hard to be ignored by their countrymen on television?

The last time the Olympics were boycotted, apartheid was dismantled.

Don't worry Nancy, NBC can take the ratings hit.
