Will Salt Lake City host the 2014 Winter Games? Almost certainly not. But could the Utah capital, logistically, host the 2014 Games?

The answers range from no doubt to no chance.

A grass-roots movement is afoot to boycott the Sochi Winter Olympics or move them to another city after Russian President Vladimir Putin in June signed a law banning "propaganda of nontraditional sexual relations" and giving the government seemingly broad powers to discriminate against gays.

” But last time I checked, it wasn’t Putin who told his homies to read our emails, record our phone calls, monitor our internet use, force us to have Obamacare, queer up the military, let moslem sand fleas into the country, conspire with other members of his Party to deprive me of my gun rights, let an Ambassador and some of our SEALs get murdered in an embassy, etc., etc.”

IRS

Election fraud

Destroying our military....

Putin looks good, by comparison

Of course...those too.

Too many to remember all at once. This pr*ck and his subversive party is hitting us from all sides.

Neither do I. Putin is making Obama look very bad. Most people
outside the US consider Obama a joke, anyway.
