The idea of protesting the Olympics in Russia while we merrily went to China would be hilarious if it wasn't so pathetic.
Many bad things the Russians do, we do right here. If it's a contest for stupid, evil behaviors, we would only come out slightly ahead, certainly not win any race for humanity.
And by the way, Russia has nuclear weapons still pointed at us - thousands of them. Canceling ANY kind of talks is a bad idea, you never know the mentality of someone behind the button.

Wow, talk about a Cold War throwback.
I do know their mentality: very much the same as ours. The Russians weren't "irrational crazies" after WWII, and they aren't now.
Summits between presidents do not exist to begin talks. They exist to ratify talks that lower-level diplomatic staff have already achieved agreement on.
Cancelling a summit merely shows that the diplomatic staff have not achieved agreement on anything big enough for presidents to shake hands on.
