Team USA Olympians Misty May-Treanor and Kerri Walsh finished as the winning team of the Women’s Volleyball games making them the first team to win back-to-back gold medals. What makes this Olympic victory sweeter than most is what the two did immediately after the match.

As usual, NBC interviewed team USA right after their win to get their reaction. After thanking the usual suspects like coaches, families, etc. the two women did the unthinkable. They gave an entheuastic shout-out to President Bush thanking him for his inspiration and everything he’s doing for the country.

I can just imagine the NBC producers looking on with horror as these two Olympic champions thanked the man they so loathe, and in front of the entire world no less.

Misty May-Treanor and Kerri Walsh deserve a huge congratulations for their impressive win and another congratulations for being patriots.
