Then she could have gone for a walk on a Long Island beach and discovered a set of rings and fashioned them in the shape of the Olympic rings as she bit her lip and shed a tear in memory of her Mother, Hera Rodham, who's dying words were, "The Olympics belong in New York City."
Yup London won. That was another plus this morning London winning over Paris!
Anyone want to buy a shirt? :)

to be honest - Sheldon Silver killed the NYC olympic bid when he killed the west side stadium.
9/11 was a totally 100% political event.
I'm also glad she wasn't able to claim credit for this.
LOL
SHHHHHH! Don't ruin my anti-Hillary moment! LOL
Shhhh! I'm having a "Hillary failed" moment! Which is more fun - the truth or a "Hillary failed" moment. ;-)
Bush Endorses New York's Olympics Bid
WASHINGTON (AP) - President Bush is endorsing New York City's bid to host the 2012 Summer Olympics. The president taped a minute-long video message last week boosting the bid, White House spokeswoman Dana Perino said Wednesday. An International Olympic Committee group evaluating five bids for the games is visiting New York this week.

When did H*****y ever live in New York City? I wonder how many languages are spoken by the residents of Chappaquiddick (not counting those spoken by the servant classes, of course)?
She looks like a tour guide ... on a TOUR OF HELL! (Just kidding, I just wanted to sound like Triumph the insult dog).
the real guy who get duped was Bloomberg - he really put his heart into this bid, pushing for the stadium, etc. Then at the end, he has to endure Hillary going to Singapore to grandstand, making it appear she had been involved.
The ones east of the bloody Hudson at any rate...Well, at least the rest of us won't be stuck with the tab.
Chappaquah, not Chappaquiddick. Sorry!
Bloomberg should have known that NYers don't want the Olympics here. Bloomberg just doesn't get it.
LOL! Congratulations on bringing the Olympics to London!
Didn't get it, didn't care.

"Tireless lobbying, a superb bid and a massive charm offensive from British Prime Minister Tony Blair lifted London to a remarkable Olympic victory over Paris in the race to win the 2012 Games on Wednesday."
LOL, a charm offensive. Well, Hillary's offensive, she's just not charming!
