Obama's failed bid for the olympics is easy to explain. It's Bush's fault.

"No-drama Obama"? The president's flight to Copenhagen ...to make a personal pitch for holding the 2016 Olympics in Chicago was an audacious move -- and a dramatic failure. "Second City Absorbs Its Latest Defeat," read the (rather snotty) headline in the New York Times.
But shed no tears for Chicago...With a projected half-billion-dollar deficit next year, the Second City is better off without the Games.
We can't say the same for Obama's reputation after his in-person appeal failed to get his adopted hometown past the first round of voting. What new project can the president undertake to save face?
How about ... reforming college football? In a post-election "60 Minutes" interview last November, Obama called for selecting the national champion via an eight-team playoff: "I'm going to throw my weight around a little bit. I think it's the right thing to do."
Perhaps those of us who oppose national health care and cap and trade shouldn't complain that the president seems so easily distracted. But you have to wonder: Does Obama think there's anything too frivolous to merit the president's attention?
...Obama has forged new frontiers in triviality. He's the president of all things great and small: He calls for "a cure for cancer in our time" while also promising to stand behind the warranty on your new Ford Fusion.
With the two wars he's running and his ceaseless efforts to micromanage the U.S. economy, you'd think he'd have plenty to do. But in his televised speech to America's schoolchildren last month Obama took time out to urge students "to stand up for kids who are being teased" and "wash your hands a lot."
He just can't help himself. Six months into his presidency, the Politico reported, Obama had already "uttered more than half a million words in public."

What’s the opposite of omniscient? That’s what Obama is.
What a pathetic president, even Carter looks good in comparison.
It’s all about him and how he wants to look in the pages of history.
Greek columns...teleprompter dependency, arrogant chin, the loose hand prance towards Air Force 1 and his most angry, unloved looking spouse towering beside him.
And 0bama Ch-Ch-Ch-Chia Pet commericals. (serious)
Painful.
What a pathetic president, even Carter looks good in comparison.

Some have. The rule is: Never admit it.
His so-called czars seem to be failing like fish out of water. Unfortunately he has no clue what the hell they are doing.
It’s Snake Oil Yall

You’re exactly right. They will rarely admit it. It goes with the “’Liberal” “Mind Set”.
Too bad they’ve become that indoctrinated. We will try to get rid of a RINO; they usually make excuses for their “bad apples.
Well, 0bama's got a lot of catching up to do, considering he's already lost 4,000,000 jobs. One eighth of a word doesn't help the bank balance of an unemployed person very much.
A group of people so driven by an agenda should be careful that it doesn’t take them over a cliff.
The fool is waking up the sheeple.

It’s not that Obama will succeed in changing America into Nazi Germany, it’s that he is succeeding in changing America into what immediately preceded Nazi Germany.

Even those fools are waking up to the extent that many of them have taken the 0bama bumper stickers off their cars.
I see fewer and fewer 0bama bumper stickers. Before, there were more 0bama/Biden stickers than McCain/Palin stickers. Now there are more of the latter.
“What a pathetic president, even Carter looks good in comparison.”
Sir, I will not have it. Certainly not.
I should horse whip you on the steps of your club for that remark.

I’m not so sure about that right now. There is a huge under current against this evil bastard.
Ummm...Ford didn't accept any bailout money so the government isn't going to stand behind the warranty of the Fusion or any other Ford product.
More like a four-year infomercial
