The greenbacks she (and they) waste of ours is staggering and simply reprehensible in this economy. Remember how he said we had to cut back, blah blah blah ??

Is she still working on bringing the 2016 Oly Impics to Chicago to bring business for the criminals and thugs that run the area so they can mug tourists?
