Next up he is somehow going to try and spin this to where he helped out another country get the bid... or some such horse hockey...

OBAMA is epic failure

The Olympics became too much of a political football. The IOC doesn’t like its games being a political liability.

Wonder if those videos of people being beaten in the street had anything to do with it?

Maybe Chicago should clean it’s house before inviting the world over for supper.

I can’t find anything at that link which states that Chicago has been eliminated from consideration.

Did I miss something?

I knew it wasn't in the bag. Obama assumed his appearance would sway the committee. Narcissism and arrogance on a monumental scale!

Agreed. No one could believe that Obama was so stupid as to set himself up for this kind of fall. The so-called brilliant one believes his own phony press.

I feel sort of odd rooting against my country, but I am so relieved that the Olympics will not be coming to Chicago.
