Perhaps it may seem like splitting hairs, but it seems reasonable to me.
I guess I don't see what the big deal is, unless you already hate Bush.

The Act of Congress stated that the USOC "owns" the rights to any commercial use of anything regarding the Olympics and it is not to be politicized.
That means Bush can't do what he's doing, especially if the USOC is asking him not to. Also, by using the Iraqi team against their wishes, isn't very "democratic" to me.
Regardless of what the Iraqis say as to whether they'd be fighting us, or scared, this is another backfire in Bush's campaign, just by using them and them wanting not to be used.
Just wish the voters would wake up and see what is going on.
Again, I ask if the man is so noble, honest and yada yada yada, why does he have to go to such tricks. If he has the better issues and is, as the right says, a man of character, why doesn't he pull the ads and respect others wishes?
Why does he have to violate an act of Congress to win, and what does that say about his character?
As far as the iraqis saying they'd be fighting the US, I never heard that, but I did hear they were scared to go home for fear of retribution by fellow Iraqis.
