Those five rings stand for the continents. Only three have held the Olympics.

You're wrong about the rings, and forgotten the Melbourne games.

Memo to Secret Service - secure all ashtrays and lamps, you know Aunt Esther is going to be winging a few...

Hoo boy, can we get a temper display on camera? I hope a foreign press corp picks up a shot or two....shame on me for thinking such thoughts.

A Waterloo moment..

He is cool. He is smart. He is charming. He is not a busty chorus line in nothing but feathers.

The spin is starting....

The NY Daily News guy on MSNBC is saying that the very fact that the Olympic committee wanted Obama to go shows “how popular he is”. “South America (whole continent) has never hosted an Olympics”, yada, yada, yada.

Axelrod, now saying “no regrets”, “not a waste of time”, “well worth the effort”. Axelrod looks extremely uncomfortable.

CNN saying Mayor Daley must be shocked.

Maybe they will use the chair in the big house?

LOL..That’s gonna leave a mark. I guess they didn’t like the new Chicago Olypmic ‘sport events’ that Chicago had in mind...’Railroad Tie Bludgeoning’ and ‘Graft/Greed Gripping’.

Didn’t the heads of the other 3 attend too?
They probably didn’t make it the production obama and manchelle did.

I may be sorry for the people of Chicago but Damn I love seeing odumbo and manchelle get slapped.
For that I think the IOC
