World brief: Olympic salute
Huddersfield Daily Examiner (Huddersfield, England), July 22, 2008
USA: George Bush gave US Olympians a rousing White House send-off to the games in Beijing, urging them to "compete swifter, higher and stronger" but also remember they would be "ambassadors of liberty" to the people of China and elsewhere. The US president will be attending the opening ceremonies and the first few days of the August 8-24 games.
