And what about the carbon footprint of the travel? Michelle went there separately, so that was two planes we sent to Copenhagen. Did the Obamas buy their carbon credits so at least they can feel good about being carbon neutral?

I thought his statement about “one year ago” people gathered at his election victory to be awkward and very irrelevant to what he was trying to accomplish.
To: Hawes
imagine, if you will..
Houston is vying for the Olympics and Bush went to Copenhagen to personally try and sway the vote. Imagine the outrage from the left about all the problems and here he is, off on a boondoggle.
But since it’s Obamalamadingdong, it’s ok..

Ain’t it though? ...and to think he only met with the General because it has come out he has only spoke to him once in the past 70 days...

Yep, I thought maybe the IOC thought that the Obamas and Oprah Winfrey going there was too much. It’s as if they thought celebrity alone would get the job done.

at least two planes. Remember, they have special limos, plus a gaggle of secret service, etc. etc..

IOC is racist. Who knew? Probably something to do with the tea parties, Joe Wilson, or rumors of Muslim-ness too. If only we listened to Ass Bumstain and banned fishy speech.

Why did he invest so much time, taxpayer money and, perhaps most important, presidential prestige in a losing effort?It was all about how the Chicago Machine was going to rip off as many people as possible.
Kick backs, graft, theft, etc. Typical Chicago gangland business as usual. That's all it was ever about.
