How can you say that when Dear Leader and Dear Leaderess are sacrificing so much to go to Copenhagen.
They are reporting about gang violence in Rio?
What about gang violence in Chicago?
and I understand that many of the Olympic venues in Chicago are going to be on the infamous South Side. They hope these Olympic projects will prompt economic development.
See what happens in tomorrow’s vote. I think Obama hopes to preside over the 2016 Olympics, assuming he is re-elected in 2012. He wants this badly for himself. He wants the symbolism of Chicago hosting the games, and he and his political career starting in Chicago, and the reflected glory.
