Arnold carrying the torch in Vancouver WTF???

[Vitamin S]

there is heated debate over this and there should be. why the fukk is he carrying the torch in canada? like he's an admitted steroid user, for fukk sakes bodybuilding isn't even an olympic sport, he's not canadian, he's not even american but austrian.

i love the states and even arnold himself, but the IOC and VANOC did a mistake by this. there are so many other canadians did they fukkin run out of people to run the torch.

when was the last time a canadian ran the torch on american soil. never and never will happen.

us canadians needs to stop being the states little bitches, and more importantly gordon campbell needs to stop riding on arnolds nuts. this is so pathetic, when i read it i couldn't stop laughing.

might as well have jay leno light the damn torch at bc place stadium.

another example of politics and corruption in sports. i'd rather see ben johnson run with the torch.

?? Virtually no one who ran the torch was an athlete or competed in a sport that is also at the olympics.... Most of them were random people you wouldn't know by name anyways. Not saying picking an American is a great choice, but personally I'd rather see Arnold do it then Brian Mulroney's son.

true. We see enough of that ugly ****ing douche

[faller]

??Most of them were random people

Not true. Take a look at the "random" people that were picked. They made damn sure all were politically correct people...ethnic, gender, ect. In my humble little community the runner was straight of the rez. Even though we had national and international athletes here.

BC would like to concider itself the California of Canada as far as liberal thinking and conservation. I think it has more to do with the fact that he's super famous, a politician and hes "going green".. most people dont care that he was ever a body builder. Im glad hes doing it, better than all the other retarded nobodies.

Well i'm thinking the last little bit will be televised and in reality it's all about ratings in order to bring in advertisers. Boils down to $. I know i'd rather watch the terminator run rather than a washed up athlete from 20 years ago.

[CanadianIron]

Or the disproportionate amount of native indians that get to handle the torch... %5 of Canadians are native, 50% of the runner are native.. hmmm

You betcha plus he was a pretty good guy for being so involved with the special olympics...Arnold is da man....Im proud to see him run with it...

[waderow]

if that's all that upsets you about the Olympics and political correctness, you're doing okay

I agree..we have Austrian/American admitted steroid user running the torch in Canada...

Cambell sucks ass..

[Vitamin S]

totally bull shit i mean to end all discussion hes not canadian so why is he running with the torch, might as well grab kayne west or tiger woods to light it too. its coz fukk face campbell is working on some energy deal with arnold and is trying to pump him up.

[kawikaratekid]

Who ever it is it should be a Canadian. Why not one of our great hall of fame Canadian Hockey players? Gretzky or Lemiuex come to mind. What about Steve Nash? Those are just a few people off the top of my head.

I agree..we have Austrian/American admitted steroid user running the torch in Canada...

Cambell sucks ass..

Meanwhile thirty people are banned from competition for performance enhancing substances.

[BAM]

No American should be carrying the torch on our soil. That is bullshit and whoever authorized it should have their Canadian citizenship revoked and should be set afloat on an innertube off the coast of florida.

I am officially ashamed to be a Canadian.

[Vitamin S]

bam u hit the money on this one. fukk its the douche bag preimer gordon who invited him along with VANOC what a fukkin joke. its not arnolds fault i love him and he should accept it and did. but its the idiots that invited him . RATINGSSSSSS yup another proof its all business.

for fukk sakes i bet the us wouldn't even invite our prime minster let alone a damn preimer and then an athelete to run their torch. also why did our torch go to the states and back again into bc?

[pseclint]

I agree........ one of those hot sisters that are going to do playboy should light the torch......

Thousands of people turned out before sunrise in Vancouver for a chance to see California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger carry the Olympic torch along the Stanley Park seawall on the star-studded final day of the cross-Canada relay.
Schwarzenegger began his leg with the flame at 7:03 a.m. PT just as the sun began to come up, surrounded by hundreds of screaming fans.
Security guards cleared the way for the former movie star and bodybuilder as he walked the flame to Lighthouse Point (http://www.bing.com/search?form=NWESCH&q=Lighthouse%20Point&mkt=en-CA&adlt=strict) overlooking Vancouver and handed it off to former British Olympian Sebastian Coe (http://www.bing.com/search?form=NWESCH&q=British%20Olympian%20Sebastian%20Coe&mkt=en-CA&adlt=strict), head of the London 2012 Organizing Committee (http://www.bing.com/search?form=NWESCH&q=Organizing%20Committee&mkt=en-CA&adlt=strict), in an extended photo-op for journalists.

what a ****ing joke..We the people have NO SAY as to what goes on in this country NONE..

fukin "A" I'm wit ya on that, but still coulda found someone Canadian

[hommes]

thats really messed up.

[brownbikerbabe]

Was kind of confused as to why Arnold was chosen to run with the torch on Canadian soil myself? Any reasonal explainations in the media other than he was "invited to"? I could've invited my friends in France to run the torch through my town!

[nitrous]

fukk i'd rather see bubbles from trailer park boyz run with it then him

haha awesome

[Vitamin S]

he was invited coz he is gonna have his weiner suckked by preimer campbell fukkin douche bag is friends with him.

[Vitamin S]

and there is some controversay as to why donvaon baily 96 olympic gold medal sprinter didn't run with the torch at all or was even invited to any VANOC function.
