I love the smell of schadenfreude in the morning. It smells like victory!

>> I think I overestimate the guy.

Don’t be too hard on yourself — he’s really easy to overestimate.

I believe he was disqualified from the competition after they ran a DNA test and determined he wasn’t really a man.

Well, THAT was an exercise in futility.

Shouldn’t have sent Michelle m’belle in first, she sort of spooked the Olympic Committee.

None of this following the women into the room, the reactionary types on the Olympic Committee do not like it when the women come along to argue the merits of their pitch.

The biggest shock in Olympic history was when the US men’s hockey team beat the Russians in Lake Placid.

Give me a small business owner on any American Main Street that meets a payroll and knows the Accounting Equation and I would feel more comfortable calling him or her: Mr or Madam President than this clown...

An expert called it the "biggest shock in IOC history."

Why? No offense, but out of the cities listed, would Chicago be your first pick?
