Actually, the committee met off camera and discussed the City's liability for all the criminal activity that would be perpetrated against Olympic Visitors, deciding against the high premiums demanded by the Insurance Companies.
Then they polled visitor country populations and were suprised to find out that they hate rap music too.
Fuck Chicago, Detroit, New York, Philly, Naptown, DC, eventually all of these minority filled shit holes will collapse under their own weight ...
Nevermind, they already are.
The U.S. Govt is a tyrannical butcher; U.S. taxpayers are accomplices to international murder and mayhem. If you satisfy your fears by bowing to this butcher, you forfeit your humanity and possibly your soul.
One of the great attributes of mankind is to rise above squabbling and pettiness to ensure our future existence.
Of course, this path of eternal existence doesn't lie with the prayer book you believe in. You believe in religion, government and legal extortion about individual rights and freedoms.

I find it odd that anyone would deny their own nation a sense of pride and honor having the Olympic games here in America. I guess while you make fun of Obama, you have forgotten about the rest of America.

Why didn't you want the Olympics to be hosted in the USA?
It's not really important to me where the Olympics are held but it's good that they are finally going to South America, a part of the world that's never hosted them.
But I do find it amusing that American narcissists like yourself are so upset.

Maybe some of us look beyond what benefits us personally and honestly believe that the Chicago not getting the olympics is better for the country in the long run. Oh, I know, you probably think that's racist.

So there is absolutely no self interest in these multi-billion dollar world affairs. What are you a juggler upon the UN floor slap happy and dumb and making everyone "feel good" through some sort of entertainment?

The wingnuts were right on cue and never disappoint.
Instead of the story being about the President failing in bringing the games to the USA, it has turned into 'can you believe this hate america first crowd'.
Watch for the coverage on tomorrow mornings talkinghead shows.
Thanks for posting, btw.
Never swear "allegiance" to anything other than the 'right to change your mind'!

And then there are the more venal and vengeful among us that don't give a rip about the Olympics or where it's held and just see this as an opportunity to gloat over the spectacle of this most personal black eye for the Marxist-in- Chief.
Chicago is bankrupt. They are laying off city workers. They spent 100 million dollars trying to land the games. American taxpayers would have to send them a billion dollars to stage the games. We don't have the money. Chicago should have asked China for the money because we don't have ir.
America First as a derisive term began with the Jews prior to WW II becasue they like war. I see nothing wrong with being anti-war and pro-American. Drudge's headlone summed iot up dor us anti-Obama people: The Ego Has Landed. Obama's ego has been crushed.

Excellent! Anything to show Obama for the buffoon he is is good for the country!
Would it matter? You don't believe in anyone but some lofty world body denying America the capability to renew strength here. All you want is to denigrate what little remains in the USA because you don't like someone. You story is clear, cut the necks off of those that lead while fucking every American under the Sun. You watch too much Hannity and Bill O'Reilley to really understand the political and economic impact of fucking your own family.

So, how would Chicago getting the Olympics benefit someone say, living in Utah. No, the only folks it would benefit would be Obama's cronies in Chicago.

You're a happy drunk aren't you?
Seriously, if Chicago not getting the 2016 games causes you this much agony you should seek some form of counseling. Or perhaps you should try weed instead of booze? It's really not a big deal.
Oh, and I don't watch Hannity or O'Reilley and the Olympics has zero impact on my economic status but thanks for caring.
SoD, this is just par for the course for this man. It goes to show that he was promoted up the chain and didn't win it through dint of years of bareknuckle politics.
Lyndon Johnson he is not. In fact he keeps getting his political "johnson" plucked from him time after time.
He set himself up for a big fall in flying himself and his wife there instead of managing the event from Mount Olympus in DC. (Did I here that she needed her own plane?)
And in going all that way, the answer should have been a foregone conclusion, which means that he either doesn't listen to or have good intelligence.
Uncle Bill couldn't keep it zipped up, but you know he never would have driven headlong into a debacle like this unless it was a wiener problem. Now the late Chimperor . . . well, Mission Accomplished.
The denial about the Olympics had nothing to do with American salesmanship. It had to do with world influence. But, you want to suck-a-lug or perhaps chuck-a-lug in response banging your head while rallying that world forums know better about these sorts of things. Has anyone suggested to you that you are boring, at best? If not, let me be the first.
