Why China Deserves The Boot ( and nothing more)

So... the long-anticipated Beijing Olympics have finally begun, receiving the nearly undivided attention of the world's majority, regardless of their country of origin... However, while many continue singing praises at what an awesome job China is doing as the host-country of the 2008 Olympics, a minority have actually realized that there is more at stake at the Beijing 2008 Olympics than just medals...

While many have regarded the Opening Ceremony as an excellent and most spectacular performance, they remain blinded to the fact that there were those who found it to be a very disappointing event... not because it lacked any element in the sense of entertainment, but rather, because their importance was being overlooked... Such is the case of the poor little girl Yang Peiyi..

To cut a long story short, Yang Peiyi is an extremely talented seven year old girl who was selected to perform the song "ode to the motherland" at the aforementioned opening ceremony. However, she was soon replaced by the oh-so-adorable Lin Miaoke ( that unforgettable little girl in the red dress who was SEEN singing at the opening ceremony) because of the simple fact that Lin was prettier than she. Although Yang Peiyi had undeniable talent, she was disallowed from appearing at the ceremony because she just didn't happen to be the prettiest creature on Earth... Instead, the organizers would rather allow Lin Miaoke to LIP-SYNC to the song which was sung by Peiyi, and with that, gain international recognition, admiration and general credit.

The very fact that China would do such a thing, moreover to an innocent child, is not only disheartening, but invokes anger. Think what such actions would do to their already marred reputation. More than that, think what effect this event would have on the poor child... In short.. China has MANY issues which they need to deal with...

Moving on, i would like to comment further on other 'issues' which have been revealed against China at this stage...

In the full spirit of the Olympic Games, China has stated over and over again that they intend to the Champions of Beijing 2008. Well, the truth of this statement is easily demonstrated by the extents which they are willing to go to in order to bring home the Gold... This includes... an entire regime of training, schedules, practices and of course, their secret weapon... CHEATING!! Whoops.. Did i say Cheating?? Yes.. I did... An extremely prominent example of this little tactic of theirs paying off (well, at the moment at least) would be by observing the Womens' Gymnastics competition... in which, as we all know, China bagged the Gold...

Okay.... anyone who watched the event would realize that China was represented by scrawny little children... Olympic rules clearly state that every member of the team needed to be at least sixteen years of age in order for the games to be fair. This is not an unreasonable request at it would seem quite blatant that as gymnasts, age would never be on their side, particularly in terms of weight, flexibility and so on... therefore, having underaged members on the team would prove to be an unfair advantage which should not be given to any of the teams. However, this appeared to be the case in Beijing 2008. What amazes me is that the gymnasts were legitimately backed up by proof of their age which came in the form of passports. Messed up? You tell me... It's nearly impossible for some of those girls to be any older than 14... common sense tells us this... judging by body physique and also their facial features ( such as commented by Fox news, one is probably changing from baby teeth to her adult sets). Also, the very fact that people were able to uncover other documentations of their 'actual ages' elsewhere ( including those which "Magically vanished upon discovery" leads us to raise an eyebrow at the bullshit China is pulling and the fact that they probably take the rest of the world for mere Fools... yes, very well done, China...

So, take a closer look and THEN tell me what an awesome job you think China is doing now... as the saying goes... Looks MOST DEFINITELY are deceiving...
