President Obama on Tuesday announced the members of the U.S. official delegation to Sochi, Russia, for next year's Winter Olympics.
The message sent, based on both who is and who isn't going, is as obvious as a Siberian winter.
In a bit of Cold War passive aggressiveness, and one that will add spark to the two nations' sporting rivalry, the United States will send no high-ranking government officials to attend the Games.
The delegation will, however, include two openly gay former athletes in an obvious condemnation of Russia's recently passed legislation that banned "propaganda of nontraditional sexual relations."
That law is seen as part of a far-reaching anti-gay crackdown in Russia that has received considerable international condemnation in the run up to the Olympics

Preezy prestige pushes perversion
You know better than to modify the title
The sports.yahoo.com comments are mostly against Obama.
Obama’s true colors shine through more by the day.
R. Love not included.
Ugh, I can’t read the whole article. Its written in a barf-tacular way, gushing over these clowns draped in the red white and blue. No, its not inspirational, its a stain on the nation.
What message does it send to the Russians? The message that we have become so pathetic, we will send clinically ill people to make a statement. If sodomy is ‘progressive’ as this toolbag writes, then so is child sacrifice. Both were practiced by ancient Pagans.
In fact, I’d go as far as to say I hope Obama’s fairies get smashed in Sochi, just to shut down his narratives and humiliate him. When you reduce what is supposed to be politics free sportsmanship to meaningless jibes and provocations, you deserve to lose.

Right you are. That’s the message most of the comments point out.
Yahoo is a lib site and yahoo commenters have always been independently lean right. Just like lefty sites such as the LA Slimes, their readers are not as insane as their editors.
That’s good to hear. It was pretty obvious from the posts.
I am not up on all the social media. Heck, I don’t even know how to tweet. LOL
It could get interesting, as I understand homosexuality
is not against the law in Russia but disseminating
homosexual propaganda is.
They could go to Russia but if they promote their
sexual agenda they could be arrested.
Another fine mess from Barak Obama.

Bull. The int’l condemnation came from the press and their ilk. The vast majority of earthlings are STRAIGHT and sympathize, if not fully support, Vlad Putin.
Obama is as much a queer as he is a commie. He sucks every which way he can.

And everything he touches turns to crap.
Pun intended.

Hey, me too! XD I’m no “follower”. Only dogs and slaves follow..
Is this part of Hillary’s Reset Button?!
Where are we going? This is my country, I fought for it, prayed for it, and was proud to be part of it.. I can’t say I am proud of what we are becoming..
Thank God I’m old, but what about my beautiful grandchildren, what will they have.. Sad, sad, sad..
Apparently being condemned by about 5 Western European bankruptcy states and the Obongo regime is ‘considerable’
Is Barack Obama Gay?

Agreed-
I could never see what people get out of Facebook, for instance. It’s like a big tell all/gossip place.
Russia should refuse them entry before they even board the plane to go there. This is beyond bizarre and insulting to the entire USA. It’s disgusting and certainly NOT an act of statesmanship. As if....
