Way to go China!!

Wow!!! China did a really great job on the Olympic Games. The opening and closing ceremonies were awesome. I think the rest of the world will be hard pressed to match, much less beat the show they put on. I'm not a big China fan, but I have to give credit where credit is due. +rep China.

Um, except for dubbing the extra fireworks, hiding the slums, putting up fake buildings, having some of the worlds worst pollution, and oh yeah, sticking the pretty girl in front of the mic, not too shabby at all!

The "show" was very good. It's the behind the scenes that would prevent me from +repping them.

Why not? In that case, hard to find a country on earth that is exemplary to hold the Olympics. Better stop to have them all togehter, or?
