FOX-TV CHICAGO ORDERED NOT TO RUN ANTI-OLYMPICS STORY
As we predicted, Chicago/Daley will get the royal messiah push. After all, nothing else is going on .. only a couple of vital wars, the support of our troops in great need, and millions of angry citizens at this administration's heavy handedness.... /S!
Michelle, Oprah and Valerie, etc. etc. weren’t enough to apply the needed ‘persuasion’ ............. PING!
Is this for the Special Olympics?
I don’t want this crap.
Waste of money and there is a city that doesn’t deserve a damn thing nevermind the 2016 Olympic Games. It is a toilet.
PRIORITIES...
U.S. Commander of Afghanistan only talked to Obama once
By Amanda Carpenter on Sept. 28, 2009
The military general credited for capturing Saddam Hussein and killing the leader of al-Qaeda in Iraq says he has only spoken to President Obama once since taking command of Afghanistan.
“I’ve talked to the president, since I’ve been here, once on a VTC [video teleconferece],” General Stanley McChrystal told CBS reporter David Martin in a television interview that aired Sunday.
Oprah’s going with Barry and there is no way they’d be going if Chicago wasn’t getting the Olympics. “Nobody puts Barry in the corner”.

Friday morning at 10:30 a.m. Colorado Springs time, there will be a big audience of our town’s residents glued to a television set or the internet with a sense of anticipation and emotion not unlike watching the Power Ball results with a pot of millions……….that’s the time for the International Olympic Committee’s decision among Chicago, Rio, Madrid and Tokyo for the distinction of staging the 2016 Olympic Games…….the suspense is intense, and the coverage this week will be staggering…..already in Chicago, both newspapers are tasking their columnists for something special from every angle –sports, society, business, gossip and punditry, with one theme about who will be on the Chicago 2016 charter plane and who sits where………its Mayor jetted off for Copenhagen with reporters shouting at him about costs, inside deals for cronies and all the usual stuff you get with Chicago politics, and Hizzonor ripping the media for damaging the bid by writing about it………
Send in the clowns.....
I am sure he will bring along just enough promised kickbacks to sway the judges to hold the games in Chicago.Like you said, it’s amazing that he can find time for this..yet our soldiers wait for directions, forgotten in Afghanistan! This man is beyond contemptible.
The country’s economy is in shambles and this Joker is flying to Copenhagen for a brief vacation.
How much money will Chi-town want from the Federal government to pay for the olympics?
Giant waste of taxpayer money. Air Force 1 and all the security involved.
What a waste. I thought ‘chelle was going to do this. Most likely Ostinko couldn’t stand her getting the stage for a day. He wants the credit.
POS that he is
Anything to not have to sit in the Oval Office and do some actual work and anything to have an opportunity to fly on that wonderful toy Air Force One.
What a waste of OUR taxpayers money for this long legged mack daddy to travel for this while our country falls apart in bankruptcy and corruption. A conference call would suffice.
Brack needs a win wherever he can get it. It seems like its wired to Chicago, but what if the Olympics goes to Rio? It could just happen to thumb the American eye one more time.
They can not share a trans atlantic flight that will cost a ton of money?
Seperate bedrooms I could understand but two Aircraft?
Since when is it the President’s job to sell the venue for the Olympics?
Wouldn't want to have someone go ballistic over the Olympics.
This is Obama’s first initiative to create jobs in America.
If the Olympics come to Chicago imagine all the jobs he will create for labor union busy work, pickpockets, credit card scammers, bookies, drug pushers and prostitutes.
Not to mention the graft and money Chicago politicians and union management will be able to steal from the massive construction projects the federal governnment will finance.
