Passing the Torch

Or perhaps passing the buck? Hey Olympic Torch protesters, if you want to send a message to China about their violations of civil liberties and human rights, pollution or currency manipulation, stop shopping at Wal-Mart! You can protest the torch all you want but you are still enabling China to do its thing when you buy products made in China. Protesting the torch procession is a waste of time. Put your money where your mouth is.

I guarantee every single one of those protesters were wearing shoes made in China along with probably another garment or two and their Ipods.

You're making about as much difference as the idiots who put the "Support the Troops" magnets on the back of their gas guzzling SUVs.
