Have been watching the Sochi Olympics sporadically - partly out of my disappointment that my grandson failed to make the US Speed Skating team, for which he's been trying for 8 years, and partly because I DON'T like the whole abuse of the Olympic Spirit epitomized by the "official" attitude towards LGBT people.

Thanks for the JIL newsletter which arrived today and called this post to my attention!Trudiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17866513608442388870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29680163.post-49285955531056376512014-02-11T21:28:40.289-08:002014-02-11T21:28:40.289-08:00A Russian blog wrote a major article based on this...A Russian blog wrote a major article based on this post.
