As she sat in AF1 sipping Krystaal and cavorting with Oprah whilst snorking down Iranian caviar, Russian Lobster (from their side of the straights near Alaska). This is just such a stuggle to be down for the count (for Chicago).

“We can’t drive our SUVs and eat as much as we want and keep our homes on 72 degrees at all times … and then just expect that other countries are going to say OK”....but that is not to say that we can't have the Olympics in Chicago in 2016 because the world likes American venues.

residence Her guest house. "Rydhave", the residence of the United States' Ambassador to Denmark, stands out among the grand villas in the neighborhood of Skovshoved, a few miles north of Copenhagen along the scenic coastal road, Strandvejen. Perched on a high hill, overlooking the narrow strait Øresund, separating Denmark from Sweden, its stately white walls and steep slate roofs create a striking ensemble, further enhanced by the extensive grounds that frame the mansion. Inside the house guests are greeted by a series of large, elegant reception rooms, comfortably furnished and adorned with numerous examples of American artwork -- creating the perfect environment in which to consider the New World point of view. Over the years, each Ambassador has brought his or her own life style, notions of comfort and privacy to the residence. In this they have reflected the tastes and appearances of the last five decades of Danish-American friendship" http://denmark.usembassy.gov/ambassador/residence.html

Obama should have stayed in the U.S. He’s not the mayor of Chicago or the Governor of Illinoise.

He can’t even perform the job he was elected for the sap.

"let people know that we understand that sports saves lives, that it makes dreams come true, that it creates visions in kids’ heads to make them think they can be the next David Robinson, the next Barack Obama, the next Nadia Comaneci, the next Oprah Winfrey," Mrs. Obama said.

Because Oprah first became famous due to her pole vaulting skills.

The truth is, I believe this is a job for the First Lady, going as an Ambassador for America to win the Olympics. This is NOT the job for the POTUS.

“As much of a sacrifice as people say this is for me or Oprah or the president to come for these few days,” the first lady told a crowd of people involved in the Chicago project, “so many of you in this room have been working for years to bring this bid home.”

Who is saying that they are “sacrificing???”
Is it you??

This Chicago Olympic pitch is turning out to be just as phony as the Chinese Olympics spectacle.

"Funds dry up so it becomes harder for kids to engage in sports, to learn how to swim, to even ride a bike,"

It's hard to learn to ride a bike in a city where parents are afraid to send their kids outside for fear they will be murdered by gangs. And, when did we begin to fund bicycle riding lessons, anyway? Was it after welfare made the dad obsolete?

Free more-than-first-class travel, five-star hotels people waiting on you hand and foot.

I’ll suck it up and volunteer to sacrifice like that. I think it would be better than the last time I traveled overseas to sacrifice for my country. I got a free stay at the beach then, but I never got to see the ocean.
