"New York Olympic Failure is a Bigger Blow to Hillary."

She was part of the team that presented to the Olympic Committee.

It's good to see the words "Paris" and "blow" in the same headline and know it's not about some slut/brat that's heir to a hotel fortune.

Heh I am surprised they did not try to spin it as a blow to bush. " Bush Down in Dumps after Big Apple bites Olympic Dust" news at 11 :)

Can't think of a nicer bunch of folks to get the olympic nod. Prime Minister Blair served his people well.

Too bad. And "Big Blows" was something that Hitlery was never really good at -- at least that what Bill said to Monica!!!! :-)

"Chirac has been discredited inside and outside France,'' said Sylvain Garel, a Paris city council member from the Green Party in an interview. ``He was not an asset..."

Hey Jacques...enjoy your dinner with the Queen. My best to Tony also.

Heard last night that Chirac really stepped in it when said only Finland has worse food than England.

Two of the Olympic judges are from Finland.

Yep, the Hildabeast brought home the bacon for her electorate in NY State.

Hey, wait a minute. The meeting was in Singapore. That's pretty close to the PRC. I'm thinking the Singapore meeting gives Hitlery a plausible deniability while she meets with her peers in China.

At least they still have the Tour De France. (with an American as the winner once again!)

Britain defeats both Chirac and Hillary. Lovely, utterly lovely.

Is it possible the Chirac is the reincarnation of George
Custer?

Maybe it's all for the best. Chirac would be much happier doing something he's qualified to do--hosting a French version of Hee Haw perhaps--or maybe slingling pommes frites at the Champs Elysee McDonalds. Something like that.

Paris Olympics failure is a blow for Chirac

In other news, former Pres. BJ Clinton is desperately seeking Paris Olympics' phone number.
