And in 2010 I doubt Phrost is going to take a hard look at the US team's shenanigans.

As the only Bullshido member (that I know of) currently residing in China, I approve this message. The amount of douchebaggery over here can be astounding at times.
But, in all fairness, Phrost, I feel that Russia is far more deserving of the title "Douchebag of the Month" than China.

The problem is that russia can't decide if it is going for douchebag of the month, or if it is gonna shoot for douchebag of the century by staying in georgia and starting a new cold war.

On the China issue. I hope we all realize that the real reason why China deserves doucghebag of the month for this is that if the IOC does act, the Chinese governments most likely reaction will be to pursue criminal sanctions against the girl. Even if (especially if) the evidence blatantly points to the government.

Recognizing hypocrisy is skirting an issue? Interesting.
I say screw the whole thing and restrict the olympics to track, swimming and combat sports anyway.

Running, jumping, throwing, swimming, fighting & combinations thereof imo.

...and beach volleyball, because damn those girls are hot.

Yeah, let's stick to track because no major Western country has been found to institutionally cheat at that recently.

But, in all fairness, Phrost, I feel that Russia is far more deserving of the title "Douchebag of the Month" than China.

As much as every fiber of my being wants to blame Russia for the whole mess in Georgia, I just can't do it. After reading this (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/08/14/AR2008081401360.html?hpid=artslot) and this (http://www.independent.co.uk/opinion/leading-articles/leading-article-a-war-on-our-blind-side-889635.html), it looks for all the world like Saakashvili thought he could regain control of South Ossetia and Abkhazia by force, then hide behind Western influence (if not NATO proper).

And as much as I don't buy the whole line of bullshit that Kosovo "set a precedent", having lived through the tail end of the Quebec sovereignty movement, I know that the right way to deal with a ethnic/cultural minority enclave is to pamper them until they're convinced of the state's good will towards them, not to try to impose sovereignty by force.

Hahaha know they really don't.

Maybe China just gets called out on their **** more?

And in 2010 I doubt Phrost is going to take a hard look at the US team's shenanigans.

I'll expect to hear about it if there's a doping scandal or an age scandal. I'll also expect the full weight of Bullshido's wrath to come down on the Canadian government if there's unreasonable political suppression surrounding the games (think APEC (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scandals_surrounding_the_RCMP#Excessive_use_of_for ce_at_the_1997_APEC_Summit) meets Ipperwash (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ipperwash)... the Mounties will have to be very careful).

That said, I'm pretty sure that getting shut out in the '76 Olympics didn't ruin Canada's plans for world domination.
WTF? Happeh was right, there is a world domination plot!

Well mostly right. It seems it's Canada and not Israel behind it.

For those who don't know what I'm talking about visit this thread, but be warned: exposure to this level of retardation could reduce your IQ by as much as 50 points.

china is a fucking douchebag.

The IOC are the real douche bags. By not doing anything to condemn this, they encourage it.

My mom was like, "why are the chinese kicking so much ass?"

and i said, "Thats easy, if they don't do well, the government will kill them and their families"

Ok, time to piss a lot of people off. I AGREE with China's tyranical one child only policy. Yes, you heard right. I agree for one reason, China has a population of OVER a billion people. Prior to this policy, China's population was booming out of controll. Had they not imposed this tyranical policy, then they would have eventually had to expand their country by military agression (WAR), and we would be in a global **** storm. China's army is fully 200,000,000 strong, and they have no fear of using it. While our military is greatly more advanced, and could kill them off, what about the disease that the bodies will bring? Rather than plunge the Planet into a 3rd world war, they imposed a one child only policy. It was a hard moral decision, but I don't have to go out and kill millions of Chinese as a result. So thank you China for being considerate enough to clean up your mess, and prevent millions and millions of deaths. Can we get India to follow suit?

This is the dumbest choice for d-bag of the month. Such a stupid reason and such a stupid choice. I'm disappointed.

Despite having a population of a billion, you can see that the majority of the chinese people live along the coast, and have plenty of more space, even though it's mountains.

NO ARMY ON EARTH IS 200,000,000 strong.

Plus, with all the space China has, they could start expanding some more. Plus, we could fit the entire population on Earth on all the small english and scottish Islands.

India, has tried in the past, and it all has failed. Plus, because that in India, we try to have fewer kids, most of the time, abortions are performed when they find it's a girl. Like in China, there's a shortage of females.
Plus, because India's plans failed in the past, unlike the other countries in the world, India is not going to be facing a labor shortage in the future. Due to China's one child policy, China and other countries in the world like U.S will be facing a labor shortage due to the smaller amount of young they're having. Just watch, in about 10-20 years, labor shortage in America and other countries will be a problem, while India won't have to worry about it till a little while longer.
