I guess we must be racist >>>>>>>sigh<<<<<<<<<<
It was just another self-serving lie dished out by the national lapdog media, supposed guardians of truth and intellectual discourse.
I dont know why we were told somehow that Chicago had the inside track or and edge over the competition. I mean, who said so?I think Liz is working up to an answer; a sneak peak: it involves Axelrod and "AKPD Media and Message" company ...
Ah do declah, _Jimmah....you is s-o-o-o-o-----b-a-a-d (waves fan and stamps litte foot).
Tell me suh, am ah not allowed to think one li'l ol' thought without a gentleman such as you buttin' in? (flounces petticoats and departs in a huff).
Their contrived IOC bid reeked with self-centeredness. The I grew up in the neighborhood thingy, as the Euro-audience winced.
Bragging about your Chicago childhood to an audience exposed to horrific Chi/go street fighting, and murder....I mean, please.
You can play a great game and still not win....Ohaha said on the loss....without a shred of introspection.
Ohaha actually justified his stupid bid for "diversity games," Mrs O's ridiculous "sacrifice trip to Denmark".....two planeloads of cronies looking to make a buck, all financed by taxpayers.
One of Ohaha's stupidest remarks to the IOC: "using the Olympics to improve America's image."
.......as if America has something to be ashamed of.
Only an America-hater like Ohaha would think, and actually say, something so heinous.
I think that an ever expanding percentage of Americans have caught on to Zero's systematic destruction plan for our country and root against anything he wants to do.
Before Obama gave his speech he said, “We’re not taking anything for granted. So I’m going to go talk to some voters.”
Apparently to Obama selecting the Olympic site is just like the Iowa caucus.
Were not taking anything for granted. So Im going to go talk to some voters.
The 0ne's solution to everything. Too bad that approach won't work in Afghanistan, just to mention one pressing crisis he has to face.
“You can play a great game and still not win....Ohaha said on the loss....without a shred of introspection. “
Narcissism and introspection are pretty much mutually exclusive. Methinks the IOC resented the “strong arm” tactics, and Obama’s love of self.
“”using the Olympics to improve America’s image.” “
This would merely foster a deeper contempt from the IOC.
Methinks Ms. O Hara doth protest too much ;-)
Um, no. Almost any other city would have been a better candidate.
“It was corporate America all the way,” said the consultant who has worked on numerous Olympics bids but asked not to be named. He said everyone from Chicago 2016 CEO Patrick Ryan to Mayor Richard Daley and even President Obama was stiff and seemingly unaware they weren’t politicking in an American election but rather in the international sports world.
“When the president said, ‘I urge you to vote for America,’ I thought, ‘Oh no.’ How do you have one of the most dynamic speakers say these things? It was unnatural,” he said.

You can also blame the failed bid on the disaster that was the Atlanta 96 games. They saw with Obama it was going to be more of the same, over-commercialized and probably badly run.
Why Obama lost so badly? Overseas he doesn’t have his huge home court advantage. Without the ObamaMedia surrounding and covering him up with their spin he really is the Naked Emperor. Sarkozy saw it a while back, the rest of the world is seeing it now. Take away his dressmakers in the media and it ain’t a pretty sight, unless you are attracted to condescending arrogance and bumbling statesmanship.
One of the stupidest remarks came from Obama: that he hoped to use the Olympics "to improve America's image." .......as if America has something to be ashamed of......
Americans were treated to their President apologizing for the country and downplaying its achievements........
Only the America-haters like Ohaha, and his minions, would think, and actually say, something so heinous.
” .......as if America has something to be ashamed of...... “
America does have something to be ashamed of - Barack Hussein Obama...
