A local blogger posted a cartoon from a newspaper that effectively calls American’s fat lazy slobs. The comparison was made by showing a Canadian Curler and an American hyper-obese couch potato eating cheese curls. The blogger was probably projecting, but I have been following the medal count and the USA is dominating with the total number of medals.
This also got me thinking, how many medals have been won by the USA across all of the Olympic games? The results my come as shock to America haters, but the USA consistently dominates the Olympic games, by a relatively wide margin, too.
Here is an interactive table of the various medal counts.
Read it ad weep, liberals. America produces the best athletes the world has ever known.

LOL! You’ve no doubt seen pictures of the blogger in question!
America produces the best athletes the world has ever known.
And the reason for this lies not in government-run, top-down programs like the Soviet Union and the German Democratic Republic (East Germany). The competitive spirit that produces the likes of Bode Miller, Lindsey Vonn and Evan Lysacek is grounded in the freedom that gives every American the opportunity to excel in whatever field he or she chooses.
This is why Americans lead the way, not only in athletics, but in every other endeavor. And also why there is no longer a Soviet Union or a German Democratic Republic.
Heaven helps us all if, in the spirit of “social justice,” the achievers are penalized by the “looters” to the benefit of the “moochers.” Atlas will most certainly shrug, and the humankind will lose its last best hope.
