Are the Chinese getting away with cheating?

There have been numerous reports recently about under age gymnasts competing in the Olympics. A Badminton player playing against women but was actually a man? Why does the Olympic committee put up with these blatant lies? There are no records of their divers existing in competition until 2 years ago, they provide nothing more than passports as proof of age. How are they getting away with it?

    Of course, some people suspect, but no way! This time, I believe that China is Qingqing Baibai Di!

    U.S. research institutions in China six months ago predicted that the gold medal in the 48 +, and forecast Liu Xiang will not be defending success, if you look carefully, you can click Baidu!

    China is coupled with the ping-pong, diving, shooting, badminton gold medal of these strengths, foreigners would like to have no way! Cancellation of these events unless the Olympic Games!

    To cheat the track and field, sports organizations in China so far has not received the gold medal, I do not get China later!

    Well how did Marion Jones get away with cheating for years? Many many countries have cheated, some have gotten caught and some haven't, China certainly isn't the first too cheat and will not be the last. The olympic comitee won't do anything though, because it's bad politics to strip away the medals of the host country.

    If there is any cheating going on, countries would protest. If they even had an inkling that any cheating of any kind was going on, a country would protest. Has anybody protested? No.

    Of course usually AFTER the Olympics are over and all the medals are handed out is when the cheating scandals come to light. A la Marion Jones...yep.

    Let the athletes play. Stop complaining.

    ooooooooooooooooooooooo

    myyyyy

    GOD

    i have no idea about the badmiton players and what he/she has done

    but guo jing jing has been an olympic diver for years

    and the gymnasts are NOT underage

    they look underage because they're shorter!

    and i love the US gymnastics team very much,

    but if the olympics were held in the US, and the US had underage girls, wouldn't other people be blaming the US when the girls really weren't underage?

    there are a lot of girls in the world that look younger than they are

    look at me, i'm 14 but i look 12

    The OOC is afraid of any confrontation with the host nation. They could investigate the ages of the Chinese gymnasts but chose not to. It's political.
