A Black Eye for Beijing, Cameras Rolling

For once, I'm in complete agreement with the Bush administration including, amazingly, its choice of words: Boycotting the opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympics would be a "cop out." It's not that President Bush shouldn't have better things to do than watch a fireworks show in the world's biggest police state while hundreds of thousands of families are tossed out of homes and jobs back home and tens of thousands continue to lose lives, limbs and loved ones in the various countries he's invaded.
