This administration is turning more and more into a joke. The attorney general is now our globe trotting chief World Cup lobbyist?

So with major law enforcement considerations sucha Wikileaksand NYC terro trials, Holder is sent on a sports lobbying effort. Good grief. Don’t we have a freak’in sports czar among the 40 or so on the payroll?

They’re having another world Cup in 2022? Didn’t we just finish the last one? I was hoping they were just once a century.

The only explanation I can think of is that this is a cover for Holder's true reason for going to Switzerland.

It does sound like a joke. Why would the Attorney General be flying overseas to lobby for sporting events. Eric Holder has a hard time accomplishing anything, but now he’s taking time away from his responsibilities to go outside of his job description. It’s clear that after declaring the U.S. public a “nation of cowards” that he has absolutely no diplomatic skills so this news is just bizarre. I imagine that he will only succeed in alienating foreign leaders.

F*** FIFA!

If they're too stupid to have returned the tournament to the US since the great success in 1994, let they keep it. Let them force fans to travel to third world countries with inadequate infrastructure and accommodations. Germany, Italy, France? Okay. South Africa? Yeah. Really easy to get to, and nice. Brazil? They're already trying to round up the dissident elements for 2014; and none of the major players will have an advantage in Brazil. Nah.

At first I thought this was a John Semmens Satire.

I’m a huge football (soccer) fan and would love to see the World Cup come back here, but this is absolutely and utterly ridiculous.

Is it avalanche time in Switzerland? Perhaps this is one way Obie will try to get rid of Holder.

Yodelayewho!

Free trips. Free board. Gettin' back at the Man.

This administration is pathetic. They are damaging black people for the next three generation with their childish behavior.

Holder is the one who pardoned Marc Rich before Clinton left office in 2000. Rich lives just outside Zuerich in Zug. Maybe they can get together to talk about old times.

The other frightening thought is that Holder is going over there to help set up the New World Order — ie.,figure out how to push international law into the US Constitution or circumvent it.

What makes Obama think he’ll even be around in 2022? With his smo0king and drinking and eating fatty foods and a family history of heart disease?

I think Valerie Jarret is trying to corner the US vuvuzela market.
