Watching the luge finals last night I saw a guy waving a DDR flag near the finish line. Ahhh, for the good old days. The Olympics just isn't the same without Commies. Back then it was easy. USA = good. CCCP and DDR = bad. Good guys waved American flags and were on the front of the Wheaties box. Bad guys looked like freakish steroid-ridden charactures of The Hulk. Especially the women. Now I don't even know most of the new "Soviet" countries. Much as we may not like the Chinese, they just don't elicit the same visceral hatred we had for the Russians and East Germans. We never had air raid drills in elementary school because the Chinese were going to blow us all to Kingdom Come.

Maybe if the Taliban fielded an Olympic team we could recapture a bit of the "Us vs. Them" of the good old days.
