Is this the olypics Odumbass tried to get to come to the USA by bestowing his grace on the selection committee - only to get the USA dumped in the first round?

Lochte’s revised account


Well, that’s a comfort.

As for me, (too) I will take the word of one of our Olympians (yes, even the flakiest of them all, Ryan Lochte) over an inherently corrupt, 3rd world Banana Republic trying to make their disorganized and crime-ridden sports festival look like the poster-child for American bad behavior.

After reading this analysis, and following the election “coverage” over the past month, and the absence of info on the Soros emails, and the absence of any interest on Hilary’s health or ethical problems, it’s a wonder anybody listens to these hacks about anything.

I gave up on the MSM decades ago, but the stink of incompetence and bias has now hit levels I’ve never even imagined.

Exactly what I thought. Drunk athletes get rousted out of a cab by a man pointing a gun at them and demanding money, and Brazilian police want to quibble about petty details because it embarrasses Brazil?

They take a small time robbery and turn it into a big international incident because they have "Napoleon Syndrome". Brazil wants to think it is significant in the larger scheme of things, but first world countries don't get their panties in a bunch because of a sensitivity regarding what is said about them.

That Brazil went into a Drama Queen super melt-down immediately told me that this wasn't about the facts, this was about pride and embarrassment from a nation that was too sensitive to how it thought it would perceived by others. (usually the sign of a beta male.)

If the four athletes don’t have the guts to stick to the truth, why should I care for such weenies?

Great post..!

As little as I’ve watched, even I have seen MANY different forms of American journalists masochistically relishing the “Ugly Americans” HATED BY THE WHOLE WORLD-theme.

They just didn’t feel right until echoing one of maybe 20 different versions of that.

This post reads credibly to me.

I guess the us media assumed the winners were Trump supporters so trashed them without an investigation...

So disappointed with many here who believed the liberal media. I really thought that this story was overblown and BS. I hope he gets vindication especially from all those companies dropping him.

It was a Brazilian shake down. Just like Mexico!!

The swimmers are lucky they didn't get killed.

Brazil is a nasty place. I had a friend that lived there. Their first month....two local sheriffs were killed.

Al and Doug Adair were friend’s of my Father, when they worked Cleveland TV. Al was a very nice, unassuming guy back then.

“A videographer who visited the actual bathroom in question and analyzed all of the video footage says there is no evidence (on video or in person) that supports the claim that the bathroom was vandalized by the swimmers.”

Interesting.

NBC showed a damaged door frame when reviewing the case. Seemed like it might have been a stock photo, but they didn’t indicate so...

Moral of the story: stay away from Brazil.

For 516 years, from Cabral's discovery to 2016, Brazil had a perfect record. Everyone used indoor facilities...and washed their hands afterwards. Now that some drunken foreigners have shown that it's possible to relieve oneself outdoors, every man in Brazil will think he's entitled to do the same. Irreparable harm to the culture.

How did the Americans manage to vandalize the restroom if they couldn't even find it?
