she's calling for the US to boycott the Beijing Olympics.
she wants to boycott on account of china's support of the Sudanese gov't in the ongoing Darfur crisis. i agree with her on this.
in my opinion, she's usually a kook. more precisely, a lunatic.
i would boycott them as well just to not grant them a platform to propagandize on the world stage. they've completely warped whatever is left of the illusion of the "free market". their social engineering efforts emphasizing the abortion of female babies has created a nightmare scenario.
their CO2 emissions now have eclipsed those of the US, and they have no political or economic reason to change. not to mention the smog...
Pres. Carter caught a lot of grief for boycotting the Moscow Olympics. i STILL support him for this move. SO WHAT if these athletes have been training for YEARS to participate in these olympics? this is politics, pure and simple. we need to put china in it's place.
i know that geopolitically and economically it's not practical, but i still admire Rep. Waters' spunk.
