chinese world record swimmer

[excelsior-1]

the chinese teenager who annihilated the world record in the pool the other day is to be congratulated for her efforts -- particularly as she has NOT been helped along by drugd.

as the olympic boss said ' she's clean .. end of story'

so i say to the americans who are getting all jumpy about it -- leave her alone.

you have no moral high ground upon which to stand ---- remember ben Johnson??

Ben Johnson was Canadian

then i stand corrected.
thank you emeritus.

however, part of my point still stands -- they should back off and acknowledge her effort.

doubt it, politics are involved.

At least there's no oil involved. That could develop into something really nasty.
