Nothing is more nationalistic, more in your face patriotic then beating the pants off of a foreign power on the international stage!
The only other thing that comes close is all the kissing, butt grabbing and patting on the back! One would think the members of the Westboro Baptist Church (WBC)would be going crazy with all this touchy feely stuff. However they probably don't know what the Olympics are, as I am sure they don't have a TV among them. They are pretty much absorbed in getting ready to picket the Democratic and Republican National Conventions. Also they are too stupid to fill out the VISA Requirements, as one aspect of going to China is having most of your teeth (I meant wits).
Before you get upset over the picture, Ketosis has no problem with some cultures (even those transplanted here) where relatives, and friends kiss each other, even on the lips. It is really common in Eastern Europe. It occurs in Nature, Look at the Bonobo ape (Pygmy Chimpanzee). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bonobo for Example.
So knock it off with the big deal of girls kissing and fathers kissing their daughters in the Gymnastics competition already. I for one am retiring to the bathroom to read the American Beach Volleyball Monthly special Woman's Olympic edition. I will not be disturbed for the next 20 minutes!
