'WE'RE THE CHAMPION' QUEEN, DOES NOT DEPICT OLYMPIC SPIRIT

It is simply barbaric to use that music at the games; 'THOSE ARE THE LOSERS' ? common
make peaceful change impossible make violent change inevitable.

"It depends on what the meaning of the word 'is' is. If the--if he--if 'is' means is and never has been, that is not--that is one thing. If it means there is none, that was a completely true statement....Now, if someone had asked me on that day, are you having any kind of sexual relations with Ms. Lewinsky, that is, asked me a question in the present tense, I would have said no. And it would have been completely true."

It's actually "no time for losers", but I guess your point stands.

I enjoyed the use of Coldplay's "Viva La Vida" at one of the women's world cups (can't recall if it was the senior or youth).
