The list, ping
Dear God
deliver us from these people.
Do they never read or think about what they are going to say before they say it?
RIO 2016!
The Kenyan doesn’t need diplomacy. I think he just speaks and things Are.
This is the big payoff for daley/chicago, and since the bid for chicago isn’t certain he is going in person, so that if it fails, he will have been seen as doing everything possible to win it.
Hard to even imagine the scale of bribes being offered in DK this week.
And if you pull on that one little strand, like a cheap sweater, the rest of it just falls apart. Kinda like what we’re seeing now.
The fix is already in. They would not have stuck their necks out unless Chicago was already a sure thing. Hope I’m wrong though...
If you thought the LORAL business was bad, see what BO will sacrifice to foreign interests in order to pay off Daley.
Communist Wonder Woman Valerie Jarrett can do everything, including suck up Olympics related funds to finance reconstruction of some of Chicago’s housing project slums.
This is like Atlanta.
All the construction contracts were issued on the basis of political corruption rather than merit.
This is about chicago construction contracts.
How about we apply 1/10 the scrutiny to these idiots as we did to Bush?
Valerie Jarrett is Obama’s handler and her past is darker than Obama’s.
Obama will turn the Olympics into a Five-Ring Circus.
American soldiers dying as they trot across the ocean for some freakin’ political payback....priorities. God help me, I hate these people.
The logic I would apply to this is - you wouldn’t go unless it was a done deal, since going and then failing to get the award would be an epic embarrassment. So, a lot has been given away already, in order to secure the selection.
Still, it would be sweet to have him there awaiting the award, only to hear Rio de Janiero be announced. It would be a Kodak moment.
‘White House Office of Olympic, Paralympic and Youth Sport’
This office probably has a gigantic budget itself. They probably spent more money on just their official logo than I’ll ever earn in my lifetime.

All I ask for a a true and honest (if that is not redundant!) of this "excercise" to the American Public. I'd be interested to also know who has personal vested interests in the possible favorable outcome for this adventure, specifically relating to the possible sale of real estate and other servicees should the Chicago Olympic Committee - 2016 be successful.
That's all I ask. Starting to think of the length of time a snow flake or many snow flakes can survive in Hell while I await the answer to the forgoing questions.
When will someone in the "main stream" news business address any of these questions and share the results with us.
Other than kicking back cash to the Daley machine, how, exactly, does this help America in its diplomatic goals?
“(Valerie) Jarrett, who was given personal responsibility by Obama of the first ever White House Office of Olympic, Paralympic and Youth Sport ...”
A new czarina?
Michelle O:It's a sacrifice to travel to Europe to pitch the Olympics-we're doing it for the kids.
