Amazing. We have a nuclear-armed fruitcake in Iran, we have American troops being led to the slaughter in Afghanistan, we have Russia arming Chavez — and Obama’s top priority is the pole vault. Great cartoon. Nails the shallowness of our posturing, preening president.

Why do you think he wanted to become president in the first place? To acquire wealth and power and fame. Then, to distribute the almost boundless spoils of victory to his best friends, political enablers, close supporters, and general constituency. And that includes Chicago, big-time.

Getting the Olympics will be another excuse and way to pour fortune after fortune into that satrapy, and it all gets funneled through his friends.

Obama is requesting that “Board Whoopin’” become an Olympic event.

I agree. One of the main reasons the Chicago power structure pushed the Obama presidency was the pot o’ gold Olympics.

He thinks he’s president of the State of Chicago.

Suggested sport for the Olympics, assuming Chicago is successful:

Dead voter relay.

Top that one Freepers; I know you can do it!

Tony Rezko owns much of the land the venues will be built on.

I thought that was the 'Fence Post Relay'?

I have mixed feelings about this.

First reaction— good. Let’s keep him busy with stuff like this so it takes time away from his pushing of bad legislation.

Second reaction — What’s his real agenda and what kind of damage will he do while in Copenhagen?

Well, this won’t top that, but how ‘bout a “Wee Wee Vault”. You know, to see just how wee weed up the competitors can go...

“He thinks he’s president of the State of Chicago.”

Ah, remind me. Is that the 54th state or the 57th?

;-)

“Bus Limbo” as an Olympic event?
