OLYMPICS OR POLITICAL CORRECTNESS SHOW? ATHENS, Greece (AP) — Triple jumper Voula Papachristou was expelled from Greece's Olympic team Wednesday for her comments on Twitter mocking African immigrants and expressing support for a far-right party. The Hellenic Olympic Committee said Wednesday that Papachristou had been excluded from the team "for statements contrary to the values and ideas of the Olympic movement." The political correctness police must be having a field day, again. And, since this olympian has been expelled - when will entire teams be expelled since the governments of the countries they represent are far greater offenders? Oh,,,, I see,,, not the best political move to make. How convenient, how selectively critical, how $^@#@&!!!
