So fuck every other Olympian that had to train their entire life for this competition. we have to stick it up Chinese just to prove the point that we care about Darfur.
Why didn’t they find some Iraqi guy and teach him how to swim just like that Eric guy from Equatorial Guinea 8 years ago?
Nobody gives a flying fuck about Darfur in the US.. Unless you married to Brad Pitt. Yes, you do care to talk about, but besides that???

I think they will be together forever!!

Nobody gives a flying fuck about Darfur in the US and rest of world :)

Too fuckin' much. :(

they should have let some black guy from Chicago that got the shit kicked out of him by the police carry the flag. They just love to distract us with other countries issues when we should be facing our own. :321GFY

My family is friends with Lopez. My father (marathon runner) has jogged with him. Great guy from what I hear. Dad sends Lopez updates every few days.

great. I am sure he's a great guy and all but Michael Phelps (sp) sure deserves to carry that flag than some guy that was born in Darfur.

What a circus. Yet another attack on diplomacy.

The UN doesn't have an ounce of credibility left, 60 years after its creation. Useless organization. Dismantle it.

When UN soldiers appear in the news, it's to fight rape charges in Haiti, and when it comes to UN bureaucrats, it's the never ending oil-for-food corruption saga.
