Here's an article about it as well:

abcnews.go.com;

What they are saying is don't make yourself into a target. Play it safe.......and for good reason. And you have the cojones to criticize these people for making such statements.

Its Bush who's responsible for the current state of affairs. Its Bush who is responsible for putting every American in danger when they travel overseas. Do you know what normal tourism levels are in summer in Athens? 75,000 per day. Do you know what they are so far in the Olympics? 80,OOO. Do you know what was expected? 125,000.

Why the drop off? Few Americans are attending the games. And why is that? Because they are scared for their safety. And then Bush has the cojones to refuse to sign the Olympic truce. When has an American president not supported peace......even if its symbolic? This is sh*t. Bush has turned our country into the Soviet Union of the 21st century.

And then you and Ten complain that American athletes are encouraged not to make themselves a target. Instead of criticizing everyone else, why don't you lay the blame where it belongs........at the feet of Bush.

Oh wait, that would mean you couldn't vote for him in November and that might spell the end of your tax cuts.

Sorry for being so naive........$$$ speaks even when it comes to American lives.
