    So I was unaware that Mitt Romney was the reason we have the Olympics due to his generosity and wealth and Americanism. (just saw a commercial talking about how after 2008 and september 11, Mitt Romeny is the reason we had Olympics after those events)

    It seems like most of the US's gold medals come from swimming (6 from swimming), while china is more varied. China has 3 from diving, 3 from weightlifting, and 3 from swimming.


    In total, china has 7 medals from swimming (counting gold, silver and bronze). The US has 16 in swimming lol

    So ironically, the US is the one that is farming the swimming events.

    Obviously the Chinese are getting their superpowers from the zion aliens that arrived during the opening ceremonies.

    i.e. the only reason she got 4th overall with a huge step ob on floor, multiple checks on beam, etc. is that the competition is trash compared to most recent olympics

    The point is she's still better than p much all the other countries' gymnasts. They should just STRAIGHT UP take the best scores, regardless of country. That way the person who wins really IS the best.
