ReaganLegend: There are many Americans on this board who strongly support our fellow countrymen and women, and love to hit the Japanese every chance we get. But, in the interest of fairness, adults from any country should give credit where credit is due, and Kosuke Kitajima deserves credit for being…

"pathat; bush has steered the Us through 8 years of economic growth."

You sure about this?

"In Japan the LDP has been in control of a recession lasting almost 2 decades."

Man alive, you tell some whoppers! Japan has been in a recession for almost 20 years? Really? Japan`s economic…

Congratulations to Kosuke Kitajima. You are a true Olympic champion.

Hansen was a huge disappointment.

Congratulations also are in order to the Aussies who won gold and bronze and the American who won silver in the women`s 100m butterfly.

ReaganLegend: Taking the liberty to speak for the majority at JT, we hope that your comments about Bush are a joke.

"The massive national debt will inevitably increase if growth keeps slowing and tax revenues inevitably follow suit. Deficits must therefore expand unless the government is prepared to accept the…

"I think Japan should stop participating in any international competitions of "Judo" including Olympic games."

Too bad, so sad. Japan was responsible for getting judo introduced as an Olympic sport in the 1964 Tokyo Games. If others learn to do something "Japanese" better than the Japanese do, that is just…

"And the long day closed with yet more disappointment, as the Japanese women’s volleyball team lost to the United States 25-20, 20-25, 25-19, 25-21."

I am proud of the Americans for defeating Japanese teams twice in soccer and now in volleyball. Keep up the good work!

We have the Olympics underway, and the Russia/Georgia conflict escalating, yet an affair that washed-up politician John Edwards had is generating tons of responses.

Whatever....

Good bye John Edwards. < :-)

The public said さよなら quite a while ago.

If I remember correctly, the U.S. soccer team is missing one of its star players due to injury, and they still were able to defeat the Japanese.

Tani takes judo bronze for Japan's 1st medal in Beijing

When a Japanese judoka wins at judo, it is due to superior training and technique. When a Japanese judoka loses to a foreigner, if even the slightest wiff of controversy can be injected into the Japanese media explanation circus to…

The U.S. mens and womens soccer teams defeated their Japanese counterparts in Beijing. Congratulations to the U.S.!

Japan only has to wait four years for the London Games to possibly get another chance at an elusive victory over the Americans in Olympic soccer.
