They cut it off right where it says "land of the free". Hmm, it only makes sense that a Communist country omits that line from playing in their country during the most high-profile medal ceremony so far... Poor Phelps, his mom, and even President Bush had to laugh it off, but I'm sure they got a little mad once they thought it over...
I've said it once and I'll say it again... It was a HUGE mistake to have the Olympics in China. Here's a great picture of the pollution there. Look closely and you might be able to see the Bird's Nest in the background. That's the Olympic Stadium.
Regardless, Phelps did an AWESOME job today and he even broke a World Record!
Go USA,

Well My Friend,
If that was a deliberate snub,it simply shows hidden character, and you know the Americans are laughing at thier fear of truths......
Coincedence? (spelling?) Well, You decide...
It was rather startling, but it played fully during the medal ceremony for the women's fencing, so I doubt it was deliberate. And anyway, how many Chinese would know the words to OUR national anthem? I sure couldn't tell you the words of any other country's national anthem.
Ryan was that not the greatest race last night in the 4 x 100 relay ? The French was trash talking us, and we shut them up !!!
Can you believe the 5th place team beat the worl record ? That is unreal !!!!
That was AWESOME!
