Well, rumor has it (via Glenn Beck) that it cost the US Taxpayer $1.2 million to fly Obama over there on Air Force One. :(

Talk about a fleecing of America.
Not to mention Mee-Shell going over separately on an Air Force 757 two days ahead of The Annointed One. Her whole three-day "Chicago" thing has to have cost millions.
 
Michelle tried to portray herself as an average Chicagoen.

The IOC members probably got a mental image of her in a Brazilian thong bikini and thousands of others like her being in the background of photos from the Chicago Olympics.

Then they got a mental image of some of those Brazilian hotties sporting those suits.

I VOTE RIO!
 
I see MSNBC is still bent out of shape over it, as they were ranting about how Hannity, Beck, Limbaugh, and others at FOX NEWS were quite happy about Chicago not getting the Olympics.

How about all of us in IL that are happy, huh? I mean, I heard a lot of Obama-people say that "Chicago, nay the citizens of IL, really want it".

No, we don't. And the IOC doesn't either.

See what happens? Saying it doesn't make it so.
 
Taking Miss-hell along was a big mistake . . . for everyone in the world knows that until recently she had nothing to be proud of here in Amerika. Folks remember that comment, all over the world, so she's hardly the one that should be pitching the glories and wonders of the USA.

The only better outcome that could have come from this stooo-pid fiasco would have been if Jimmy Carter could have gone to beg for the Olympics alongside his young protege too.

The Jimmy and Barry Show . . . two of a kind!

As H Richard said, it's a good thing Chicago didn't get it because the Il. taxpayors cannot afford it . We are already in terrible shape thanks to all the corruption that comes out of Chicago.
 
Lost in all this hoopla is the sorry fact that my bid to host the Olympics also went down in flames-I didn't even make the final 4. Had the High school track lined up for the track & field, got the bayou swept of snakes for the swiming , got the gym for the gymnastics and Vermillion bay for the yachting. Hell, I even got the Indians to keep the casino open 24 hours for the crowds. I had two six packs invested in this!Bastards!!!!! :mad:
 
Top Ten reasons Chicago didn't get the 2016 Olympics


10. Dead people can't vote at IOC meetings
9. Obama distracted by 25 min meeting with Gen. McChrystal
8. Who cares if Obama couldn't talk the IOC into Chicago? He'll be able to talk Iran out of nukes.
7. The impediment is Israel still building settlements.
6. Obviously no president would have been able to acomplish it.
5. We've been quite clear and said all along that we didn't want the Olympics.
4. This isn't about the number of Olympics "lost", it's about the number of Olympics "saved" or "created".
3. Clearly not enough wise Latina judges on the committee
2. Because the IOC is racist.
1. It's George Bush's fault.
 
I am as happy as a clam!!! All of the people on my most despised four list are embarrassed/disappointed. Emporer Daley was counting on the Olympics to save the city's economy. The new construction involved would have displaced thousands of low income family's. Part of the game plan.
 
Considering how much I despise Mayor Daley, I'm glad his ignorant efforts crashed and burned.
 
Poor staff work?

It is said that bribery is the key to getting the Olympic Games. Perhaps the Chicago Crowd needed to ask for help from New Jersey?
Seriously, the Rio people were building the celebration site before POTUS left to make his presentation, this blunder (forlorn hope) could have and should have been avoided, clear incompetence on the part of his staff.
