Top 10 Reasons Chicago Didn't Get the Olympics

10. Dead people can't vote at IOC meetings

9. Obama distracted by 25 min meeting with Gen. McChrystal

8. Who cares if Obama couldn't talk the IOC into Chicago? He'll be able to talk Iran out of nukes.

7. The impediment is Israel still building settlements.

5. We've been quite clear and said all along that we didn't want the Olympics.

4. This isn't about the number of Olympics "lost", it's about the number of Olympics "saved" or "created".

3. Clearly not enough wise Latina judges on the committee

2. Because the IOC is racist.

1. It's George Bush's fault.

DUmmie FUnnies 10-03-09 ("Obama (That Bumblin' Clown)" Loses Olympics for Chicago)


OBAMA (THAT BUMBLIN' CLOWN)
Tune: "Chicago (That Toddlin' Town)"

Obama, Obama, that bumblin' clown
Obama, Obama, he will fumble around--and flub it
Bet your teleprompter he'll lose the games for Chicago, Chicago
So bad that Oprah Winfrey will have to frown

Olympics are slim picks, when Barry's your shill
You do things like lose out to Brazil
He had the task, Chicago to sell
I had to laugh, he came with Michelle
O Chicago, Obama let you down!

Obama, Obama, that bumblin' clown
Obama, Obama, he'll fumble around--and flub it
Bet your teleprompter he'll lose the games for Chicago, Chicago
So bad that Oprah Winfrey will have to frown

Olympics are slim picks, when Barry's your shill
You do things like losing out to Brazil--still
He had the task, Chicago to sell
I had to laugh when he came with Michelle
O Chicago, Obama--Obama sure let you down!

Unfortunately, that’s the way it’s being spun.

“4. This isn’t about the number of Olympics “lost”, it’s about the number of Olympics “saved” or “created”.”

Very funny..

Love it, also love how the talking heads on MSNBC, etc. all said it was a great thing for BO to go and now that he lost the bid it wasn’t really important!

From Newsbusters:

Top Ten Things About Letterman's Trysts With Staffers

10. Learned everything he knows about interns from Bill Clinton.

9. Was jealous of A-Rod, if you know what I mean.

8. Well on the way to becoming the next ex-governor of New York.

7. Makes Mark Sanford look like a rank amateur.

6. Because he’s a liberal, endorsement from NOW was never in jeopardy.

5. Didn’t care about the book, but wanted the movie rights to ‘The Scarlet Letterman.’

4. Is so glad he didn’t have a ‘morals’ clause in his contract.

3. Has great story for his support group, ‘Philanderer’s Anonymous.’

2. If he had to do it over again, he’d collect cars like Jay Leno.

1. Gives company name “Worldwide Pants” a whole new meaning.
