Oh, so now the IOC is political

My friend Michael sent me this article about how the International Olympic Committee (IOC) is trying really hard to get North Korea and South Korea to march together in the opening ceremonies as a show of "peace." Michael noted that it kind of sounds downright political of IOC president Jacques Rogge. So, let's review. Try to criticize China on human rights and you're unnecessarily injecting politics into the games. Try to get North Korea and South Korea to march hand in hand in order to give credibility to what is likely the most brutal dictatorship in the world, and then it's okay to be political. So basically, if you're on the side of Communist dictators, the IOC is always there for you. But if you're on the side of regular men and women whose lives are being destroyed by the IOC's thuggish friends, the IOC can't be bothered with you.

And they wonder why people don't watch this crap anymore.
