May just be that Obama’s arrogance caused the loss.

I still not sorry I stake prestige of presidency on bringing games to Chicagostan where we have many hobbies: disco dancing, archery, rape, and table tennis, Wa wa wee wa.

The Olympic Committee just said “don’t let the door hit you on the butt on the way out”.
In Michelle’s case, I don’t see how the door could miss.

Yeah, I was thinking also if that awful video had any effect on the judges. In any event, Michelle was right after all-—it was a sacrifice for her to go!!

One more Onada negative. It’s so sweet. I thought The Marxist rat was loved by the whole world.
I’m beginning to really wonder about the man’s basic intelligence. Why would the leader of any nation put his/her prestige on the line for the Olympics. It’s one thing to do it privately, but the hoopla associated with The One’s boondoggle put his you know what out there to be chopped off—and it was.

When I heard “The One” was going I was so sure the fix was in. This is too good to be true.

Looks like the IOC just told The One to “talk to the hand.”
Of the three remaining, I’m pulling hard for Rio. Tokyo’s already had one Olympics, and they were in Barcelona not too long ago. An Olympics in Rio would be one hell of a party, don’t you think?

Poetic Justice! Would love to be on that plane as it dragges Chewbaca and Okra’s fat a$$es across the atlantic! Another catastrophic blow to the power of the One! For the first time in my life I am proud to be a citizen of the world (/sarc)!

my new FB status:
obama’s pitch for olympics was probably too much like his first-pitch in the all-star game. awkward and fell short.
