Well, the IOC and the Daley Chicago Political Machine DO HAVE similarities. LOL. Dear Leader knows that kind of environment...

Must be a slam dunk. I lived in Chicago a few decades ago. I can't imagine the Olympics being held there. Obama wouldn't risk any more personal capital if he wasn't sure he would win. He CAN'T STAND losing and this loss would be an International one. 2016 must be going to Chicago.

Welcome to the Olympics!....Right on!

Please don’t change the article by presenting your commentary as the original article. This is deceptive and misleading.

Sean Hannity has been stating that all week - that “the fix is in”, or he wouldn’t risk going over there to begin with!

There is no way, judging by the recent videos, that anyone is safer in Chicago than they are in Brazil. No Way.

Yep, your tax stimulus dollars at work, so that a few people can enrich themselves.

Your commenmtary belongs in the first post after the article, not as part of the article. This was very misleading. You made it appear as if the BBC were asking your question. Coming from the BBC that would be very interesting, coming from you, not so much.

I still say we should all write the olympics committee and tell them what a bad choice Chicago would be; how it would displace 1,000's of poor people whose homes would have to be razed to make room for venues, and so that slumlord obama suck-up valerie-what's-her-name could make a fortune.
We need to tell them that we can't afford an Olympics, that our economy is in the tank, and people can't afford to attend it either.
Mention Chicago's crime rate and graft and corruption; mention that the U.S. is not safe for the olympics, remember there was a bombing at the Atlanta olympics.
The world needs to see we don't like our president going off to secure gaming while our troops are dying in Afghanistan because of his sophmorish penchant for attention and to help his campaign contributors.
It would also show Daly and his ilk that teaming up with zero for your favorite project is the kiss of death for the project...no public support.

I suppose they are right about the decision already being made. However, I have to wonder if the Europeans, whom the Obambi crowd adore as being so enlightened, really will be blown away and bow down to the crowd of ‘black folks from Chicago’ trying to impress them.
Also, wouldn’t the committee have some concerns about Chicago being a prime target for terrorists? But perhaps that is the case with any location, as the Olympics are such a symbol.

YES, the fix is in! The JOKER and Oprah WOULD not have risked it if they didn't know he was awarded the Olympics in GANGLAND! SO be prepared to hear the mediaPUKES go 24/7 with nothing but the JOKER! OBTW, simple give away, LOOK AT THE SMILE he gave the reporters at the top of the steps as he enters Air Force One...DEAD GIVE AWAY...it's in the bag!!
To: Poopyhead
I hope the fix isn’t in, and I hope the Olympics don’t come to Chicago.
I think he had to go. Other heads of state/government were there. If he goes and Chicago gets it, then he gets some of the credit. If he doesn’t go and Chicago gets it, he gets no credit. If he goes and Chicago doesn’t get it, he can say he did his best. If he doesn’t go and Chicago doesn’t get it, he gets blamed for not trying hard enough.

I think he thought it was in the bag. I now have my doubts due to several reasons.
- that horrible video of the kid being beaten to death outside his school
- news dribbling out of Chicago that many locals are against this (despite attempts to suppress)
- the unfolding ACORN scandal and high likelihood that some Friends of Barry will profit from shady Olympic deals in Chicago (IOC has gotta wonder do we want to be holding the bag when the next shoe drops?)
- His speech was nothing more than another self-serving, arrogant campaign screed. I can’t imagine it impressed anybody.
- South America has never had the games and Brazil has gone much further to placate the global Green crowd
