How come any where else in the World where they show the medals won in the Olympics, the order of merit is with the gold medals first.

But Oh no in the good old USA they show the medal tables in order of who have won the most medals - so in the real World, China is top with 39 Golds,14 Silver and 14 Bronze, the USA second with 22 Golds,24 Silver and 24 Bronze.

But in the New York Times, the USA is top with 72 medals, and China second with 67.

Will this Country stop at nothing to rule the World?????
