World News host Charlie Gibson appeared bewildered on Friday as ABC broke into regular coverage to report the "stunning," crushing" news that Barack Obama had lost his bid to secure the 2016 Olympics for Chicago.

“Defeat; ‘Kick in the Pants’ for Obama.”

This is the first of many one after the other that are going to start to happen to this clown.

Well, it might have been a kick in the pants for Obama, but we’re the ones paying for it. The final tab?

Charlie Gibson... fretted over how this failure was a "kick in the pants for the President."

Why, yes, Charlie, it was a kick in Bambi's pants! The front of his pants... about crotch level, I'd say...

More like a kick in the political stones.

Nice going, Mr. President. You did us proud.

What a supercilious, self-absorbed humorless lout.

Should this result make us a little cynical about having the president negotiate disarmament deals? Should he be the one showing Israel how to negotiate?

I can’t wait until he asks Axlerod his gooey racist question: Did it break Obama’s heart?

Wouldn’t you LOVE to be a bug on the wall of one of those planes returning from Copenhagen?

The arrogance finally did them in.

I am not a cynic whatsoever but a realist. But in that light I have ZER0 confidence in Obozo and this Congress to lead this nation. It is the most incompetent leadership in this nation's history.

GIBSON: He went over there believing that his appearance would sort of seal the deal for Chicago.

Well, Gibson got this right. All that Obama has is his appearance and he thinks that it's enough to solve all the world problems. Is this what he is going to bring to the table when he talks with terrorist leaders?
