What did Serena say?

If Greece can't guarantee safety, we should not send our athletes.

I thought Greece said it was impossible for terrorists to strike Athens (this if these are foreign terrorists).

Maybe its the November 17 terrorist group causing some trouble in Athens.

"Baptists?"

She said she would not go if she didn't feel it was safe. Sheesh... at first I said what a whimp, but that wasn't fair. If Greece can't get a grip on this, then the Olympics should be postponed or whatever.

The Salt Lake Olympics had decent opening and closing ceremonies and LOTS OF SECURITY. I think Dubya and Laura were there.

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.

Unless I miss something, when did car bombing become an Olympic sport?

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

I agree with her. Didn't Blair say that if Greece can't provide security, England would not send athletes?

It's in the middle of the night. It doesnt smell like Al Qaeda.

Greece have been having trouble with domestic leftist/anarchists groups. My bet is on them.

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

I don't know but if Blair said that, he's right to say that.

Especially if it's police stations.

The scale and method will be more telling, however. Especially if the purpose is to deter people from visiting for the Olympics.
