I was thinking it was those damned Presbyterians.

Which ones?

The Saudi Women's Swim Team looks like:

Floating garbage bags...

The best moment was when GWB went into the crowd and sat next to one of the athletes. She was on the phone with her mom, so President Bush grabbed the phone and said hi. Classic.

I remember that. No Clinton fraudulence, just GW, real guy. It was a priceless moment!

[Mad_Tom_Rackham]

LOL. I'm trying to visualize what the Women's swim team from a country like Saudi Arabia would look like.

Picture a bunch of waterlogged burlap bags on the bottom of the swimmming pool.

Not WWIII, just Western Civilization against Islam.

They cannot exist together, just like matter against anti-matter.

This is a war for survival, only not everyone knows it yet.

[Mad_Tom_Rackham]

What to do?

Start publicly hanging LOTS of bad guys.

[RedWhiteBlue]

Salt Lake City does not have the facilities to handle the summer olympics -- they've only done the winter games. Maybe Atlanta?

[luckystarmom]

Sasha Cohen the ice skater.

[hellinahandcart]

and don't forget the coffin carrying team, must be done through a crowd.

LOL! The coffin relay! That medal is theirs, the rest of us might as well concede.

[Hillarys Gate Cult]

And don't forget the just added Olympic sport, America Hating. I'm sure our Democrats can give the Palis a run for their money.

[Mad_Tom_Rackham]

The Olympic Committee could offer an event in "jumping up and down like petulant fools frothing at the mouth while screaming Muslim nonsense and waving an AK47 in the air".

[Grig]

"No, Buddhists."

Get real, everyone knows it was the Amish.

[explodingspleen]

England?? Great Britain I think you meant.

Wait, I thought England annexed Great Britain to counter the growing threat of aggression from the United Kingdom? Or maybe that's the Limeys I'm thinking of. Anyway, something about the Anglican Peril and Britain duking it out with the UK, I'm pretty sure, though maybe I'm not quite up on my European history.

Bombs Rock Central Athens Police Station

Tue May 4, 2004 10:44 PM ET

ATHENS (Reuters) - Three timebombs exploded outside a central Athens police station early Wednesday, doing heavy damage to the building but causing no serious casualties, a police official said.

Authorities had cordoned off the area around the station in Kalithea after an anonymous caller warned a newspaper about them, the official said.

"The first two explosions went off in a span of five minutes. The third exploded half an hour later as bomb experts were still looking for it," the police official told Reuters.

"The caller had given police only ten minutes to find the bombs." An ambulance was called for one policeman slightly hurt by the third blast.

The explosions at the back of the police station caused heavy damage to the building and its garage.

Kalithea is near hotels to be used by Olympic officials during the August 13-29 Olympic Games. Fears have been running high that the games could be a target of political violence and security forces have been put on high alert.

"The police are treating this matter very seriously with only three months to go until the games," the official said. "You have three sophisticated time bombs going off outside a police station, that's serious enough for police."

The number of bomb attacks in Greece had decreased after the dismantling of the guerrilla group November 17 in 2002.

BIG HYPE JOB

Well, I guess we've heard from the chronic cynic vote. Maybe there are some left that still think the Olympics are interesting. We'll see.

[Sender]

There was no immediate denial of the Eskimo connection.

[Sender]

Maybe the palestinians are playing this year. They also sponsor the liver throw.

Watch out for the Palestinian curling team. Don't let them give you that old line about using their own stone.

[Kudsman]

Let me guess!....... There is a strong possibility that Muslims are involved?

Come on, next you'll tell me that John Kerry served in Nam. Sheeesh. What kidders.

While they are carring out their security exercises, someone is plotting and planting timebombs. Are you planning on attending the olympics?
