With all due respect to anyone here living in or near Chicago, I would’ve been shocked if it hadn’t been knocked out of the running.

I visited Chicago once, many years ago, and I also visited Madrid. Madrid beats Chicago hands down. Why this news anchor is surprised - that Chicago is out and Madrid is still in - is beyond me. He seems incredulous that anyone would ever say no to this president.

“At a rally in Daley Plaza five months before the election, Obama drummed up enthusiasm for the bid. He said: “In 2016, I’ll be wrapping up my second term as president, so I can’t think of a better way than to be marching into Washington Park alongside Mayor Daley, alongside Rahm Emanuel, alongside Dick Durbin, alongside Valerie Jarrett as President of the United States, and announcing to the world, ‘Let the games begin!’”

NOT!

CNN: “Chicago received the least number of votes in the first round despite a full court press by President Obama and First Lady Michelle to get the Olympics for their hometown.”

English translation: “Chicago received the least number of votes in the first round AS A DIRECT RESULT OF a full court press by President Obama and First Lady Michelle to get the Olympics for their hometown.”

They need to release the vote count. I wouldn’t be surprised if Obama got Zero votes

The Progressively Liberal Mediots (PLM) have delusions that everyone loves Obamadinejad as much as they do.

Which means no one can turn him down except racists.

So it had to be racists who said “No Olympic Soup, Chicago!”

Rush has made a great point: Obama himself has been bashing the US in all of his speeches and travels. Why would the Olympic Committee choose the US when its own president critizes it?

I am so happy that I could scream! Just think of the money that would line the pockets of Obama's friends--taxpayer money--with Chicago and its corruption. He even had an office established in the White House for this project. Valerie Jarrett would run it. Woo-hoo!

Don't those idiots at the IOC know how much the First Wookie "sacrificed" for all the little people by flying to Copenhagen!!!

Furthermore, how dare they eliminate the Messiah's adopted hometown!!!

I can just imagine all of the IOC members being embarrrassed for Obama when he stated he was going to fly in. If Chicago received that few votes they must have known that he was doing so for no reason. They knew they werent’ going to pick Chicago for some time and that there was no chance.

MSNBC said it was like a “punch in the stomach” to Obama. Well, yeah, when was the last time ANYBODY said NO to this man???

Don’t let Keith Olbermann or Chris Matthews near any upper-story windows. On second thought....
