The Olympic torch

Am I the only one who has more to do with my time than worry about the status of the Olympic torch?

Where are all of these protestors coming from? Do these people not have jobs, or what?

Look....I'm just as disappointed about the human rights record of China as anyone, but I don't think I'll voice it by trying to chase down some stupid symbol and put it out with a fire extinguisher. I think I'll refuse to buy anything that says "made in China" on it and hit 'em where it hurts!

If we're so disgusted with China, why did the IOC agree to allow China to hold the Olympics in the first place?

Uhhh....the same reason that we'll keep buying their goods.

Money.
