"The message was that . . . a personal appeal from the president would make a huge difference."And it did make a huge difference... Chicago went from the frontrunner close to clinching victory to finishing dead last...

A personal appeal from the president did make a huge difference.
It changed a close vote to a route.

As I recall, one of zer0’s favorite campaign slogans was “it’s all about judgment.”
Great judgment there, buckeroo.

Methinks the IOC didn’t like being “stronarmed” and didn’t like the narcissist either ;-)

The intelligence that we hadI knew they didn't have much 'intelligence' in the white house...didn't know how little they actually had.

As always, someone else’s fault. The media continues to protect and excuse it’s golden idol.

Actually, I see a subtle use of the victimisation card here “we were lied to!”

If I understand this correctly the vote was “very close”, and something must have tipped it away from Chicago.
Hmmmmm, Hmmmmmm, Hmmmmm, ..............

Well there is nothing complicated about the “I I I I I I me me me me me me me I I I I I I I I “ president. He thought trashing America would make everyone love him. So he goes flying over and gives one of his magic teleprompter seacnces, and the teleprompter was all out of magic smoke.
Once you have heard the shuck and jive hat and cane act a few times, it really is silly you say to yourself.
