These people are so self centered they make Billy Jeff look selfless.

Question about the shooting venue - heeheehee. “Why, yes, our shooting venue will be the biggest in Olympic history!”

This is an important question, as apparently the equestrian
competition would move into Wisconsin .. far from the other athletes and some competitions also out of Chicago and into Indiana.

I don’t think there would be so much publicity and fanfare about the trip to Copenhagen if the fix wasn’t in. The IOC is an EXTREMELY political organization. There is no advantage to them to give it to Rio when ostammer and his thugs can cough up so much more and promise/guarantee everything the IOC’s heart desires.

I don’t like the IOC in the first place. I hope they give it to Chicago and end up with egg on their faces for having done so. And I couldn’t care less if the people of Chicago don’t want it. They’re the sorry SOBs who keep electing people like Daley, Blago and ostammer and/or stand by while massive voter fraud goes on. To hell with them.

Okay, regardless of the dubious merits of the criterion, I see how Chicago is more diverse than Tokyo or Madrid in a racial sense, but Rio?

And ha-ha, the cyclists get stuck up in Wisconsin.

She looks beastly no matter how hard they work on her - because she IS a beast.

Yes !!

And the issues some Olympic cycling athletes have expressed
is that they do NOT want to be separated from their fellow athletes by being in another state ! Sounds reasonable enough.

Well, apparently they watch his show. They must just seethe over him every day. I’m sure they do things during that time period deliberately. Fox should run coverage of the events but delay the broadcast of them. I’d LMAO.

That’s one of the earmarks of a true dictator - ALWAYS in front of the camera. ostammer has never been about anything except his own image.
