I think the IOC is a joke and they are truly making the Olympics a complete farce. I am sure as soon as China produces birth certificates with the corrected birth dates this will all go away – when we all know the Chinese government would never let themselves get caught in this type of scandal and would absolutely 100% fabricate the documents necessary to bury this.

Just add it to the list of human rights, pollution, and other violations China continues to propagate.

Why is everyone so afraid of offending “bad” governments?

Two come to mind:
1) Replacing the little girl who won the singing competition with someone else because she wasn’t pretty enough.
2) Using an underage girl to win the gymnastics…

Geesh…

Can you help me?
