CTV covers the joy and celebration of the Olympic Spirit...
In Paris, police had drawn up an elaborate plan to try to keep the torch in a safe ''bubble.'' Torchbearers were encircled by several hundred officers, some in riot police vehicles and on motorcycles, others on skates or on foot. Boats patrolled the Seine River that slices through the French capital, and a helicopter flew overhead.
Because nothing says Olympics like protecting the torch from people that don't approve of a violent, repressive regime. The 21st century Olympic ideal, celebrating bloodshed, curtailing freedom and corrupted by greed. Don't forget not to tune in folks.

Just in off the wires, Paris police cancelled the last leg of the relay in the face of protests that forced them to extinguish the torch and put it on a bus four times over the course of the day.
this is just gonna get worse and worse for China -- wait until it hits San Fransisco, to say nothing of the Tibet leg of the relay.

Won't be difficult. That graft-, corruption- and steroid-plagued circus lost its appeal long ago.
Oh my Ghod, the Ape agrees with The Phantom. I may have to shoot myself.

Of course then his buddies bust out the tasers but still it hits like a monty python skit in my head.
