Will President Bush Invite Any/Both US Olympic Swimming Team to the White House?
No announcements made nor stories found regarding invitations nor visits.
Background:
21-23 Olympians joined the President and his wife for two events specially organized to recognize the Olympic Team.
The President also visited with several Olympic Teams during his historic visit to the Beijing Games -- including the US Men's Swimming Team.
Notwithstanding the Presidential visits at the White House and in Beijing, given the historic achievements of the US Olympic Swimming Team, and the surge in national pride -- will either the Men's AND/OR the Women's Olympic Swimming Team(s) be invited to the White House?
To qualify for settlement, a Team invitation must be made. Not all members need to be in attendance. Any team must be invited by September 15, 2008 in order to settle as "Yes".
