| Bush to Olympics: Drop dead |
| 2004-08-27 |
| EFL The White House is thumbing its nose at officials with the 2004 Olympic Games, and will continue to run a President Bush re-election commercial which uses the Olympiad as a backdrop. "We are on firm legal ground to mention the Olympics to make a factual point in a political advertisement," campaign spokesman Scott Stanzel told reporters. "The ad reflects the president's optimism that freedom is overcoming terror, and democracy is spreading throughout the world." If laying the smack down were an Olympic event, W's people would get the gold. Bravo. |

| #8 TGA: Do New Yorkers actually want the Olympics? Like a hole in the head. This is just an excuse for the mayor to build a new stadium for the NY Yankees at taxpayer expense. Much as I love the Bronx Bombers, I'm paying a few thousand dollars of additional taxes to subsidize a bunch of overpaid prima donnas. Let them pay for their own stadium. |
