Should Bush Boycott Olympic Ceremonies?

I can't believe that I actually agree with Nancy Pelosi, but she recently said that G.W. Bush should boycott the opening ceremonies to the Olympics in ruthless communist China.

I have to say that the Chinese are actually very smart. Right now they are rounding up and arresting (and probably executing) millions of political dissidents, especially in Tibet. This will minimize the impact that these freedom seekers will have during the Olympics.

Think about it - a dead protester is not as effective as a live one standing in front of a tank that's being shown live around the world.

I'll be interested to see what Bush and the rest of the world leaders do. Do we support the communist government and their actions against their people or do we symbolically stand up for those people by not being there for the ceremonies?
