Not surprised that the IOC shot it down. I sense they working to keep the “politics” OUT of the olympics since that bribe scandal that nearly took it down a nunber of years back, though the London games opening ceromony had to bring in the “NHS” .
America is great for being the murder capital of the planet?! Your coke needs redoing, Barack.
Ya, and remember, Obama personally went to Copenhagen to lobby for Chicago to get the Olympics.
I remember Oprah was on that trip, and said that Obama was the captain of their team.
Michelle Obama at the time, said that their strategy in Copenhagen would be “take no prisoners”.
But, alas, it didn’t work out as planned.................
I have first-hand knowledge of an attempt to rig a church council election. Now that’s the Chicago I know!
Love it!!
Obama: ‘Chicago Is an Example of What Makes This Country Great’
**********************
Should be:Obama: ‘Chicago Is an Example of What Will Make This Country A Great Cesspoll Of Corruption’.
He’s off his meds again! What makes me ill is that he has the guts to stand before us and say these things. No conscience, no soul at all. He is totally corrupt.
Mayor Rahm danced into the controversy after Alderman Proco Joe Moreno (1st ward) had publicly announced his opposition to Chick-Fil-A opening in his ward.
Mayor Rham chuckled while doing a plie: "It's easy to do business in Chicago when you know 'the rules.' Chick-Fil-A can open in our town as long as it adopts 'Chicago Values.' "
(1) weekly cash pay off to the alderman;
(2) hire six of the alderman's friends who work only random days of the month,
(3) BIG AL from the Mayor's office picks up all cash in brown paper bags at CFA's back door,
(4) Chick Fil A staff trained to shoot 10-12 customers per month,
(5) Any CFA customers actually killed must be registered to vote as Democrats,
(6) $100,00 campaign contribution to Obama,
(7) free food to Jesse Jackson, Jr, who is now "convalescing," b/c he screwed up buying Obama's Senate seat.

Chicago sucks.
ya ..only the criminals have gun..its great if you can afford armed guards. Community organizing you know.
I’ve met all kinds of transplants here in Colorado telling me how “great” Chicago is, yet, they left.
Boooooooooooooooooo
Mayor Rahm in rehearsal.
High if not the highest gas prices, high if not the highest murder rate, massive political corruption, high if not the highest tax rates, high cost of living, etc. Sure community organizer, can’t beat it. Those things are what makes a Rat and union infested city great.
Couldn't have said it better... myself, Barack!
Indeed. A city of great values if socialistic anarchy is your ideal.
And perhaps even worse than the rampant drug war violence is the fact that Chicago is a city so corrupt that no one in their right mind will ever consider it as a place to locate a business specializing in 21st century technology.
