Of course, if you rank the countries by most gold medals won (you know, like the IOC and every other country does) Canada won going away with 14 (an all-time Winter Olympic record) with Germany next and the USA third. Let’s not forget what the Olympics are all about: giving out medals of beautiful gold, so-so silver, and shameful bronze.
Um, as an American who likes to win, I’m going to go ahead and ignore your very logical rationale, and instead drive my Hummer through an endangered wetland while listening to “God Bless the U.S.A.” U.S.A. #1!!!!!!!!!!
