First this:
Given that Mr. Obama flew overnight and made his presentation about 3 a.m. Washington time, Robert Gibbs, the White House press secretary, said it consumed few regular work hours that would have gone to other priorities.
Then this:
Mr. Obama, Michelle Obama, Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. and Ms. Jarrett worked the phones in recent weeks without coming away with a sense of how behind Chicago really was.
The whole damn bunch were playing Dialing for Dullards.
That's your Chicago-style First Lady.
Can you imgine Laura Bush, or for that matter, any other First Lady, speaking that way ~ "the gloves are off" ?
Bwaaa haahaa !
Things that make you go hmmmm....
As another famous Democrat said, "all politics is local".
"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find only things evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." - Manuel II Palelogus
THis is the only way the NYT is going to detach itself from Obama-—over small issues, one at a time,piecemeal.
Did he really say that last line?
What has this goofball ever accomplished on his own?
He got elected to the US Senate by getting his competitor disqualified. His college was paid for by someone else. His media got him elected. He can’t convince the US taxpayer to go along with any of his plans, so he has to include force. He is using unelected and unaccountable czars to get his way, again with the force. He is using the force of the US government to rule, not to govern because he is incapable of actually selling anything. Empty suit big time.
Gee, he was out of leauge with a bunch of olympic organizers. How will he handle himself with a real adversary? I already know the answer to that.
“the trip probably cost taxpayers upwards of 20 mil. “
Does anyone really know what this waste of taxpayers’ money cost? I haven’t seen any estimates. Gotta’ be a lot . . . a lot more than when he and his muslim cronies went on that “scare” flight over Manhattan.
It’s simple. His ego is such and his sycophants fawning enough to convince him that his almighty presence in Copenhagen would seal the deal. But I think he rolled the dice because he figured a win, which of course would surely happen once he blessed Danish soil with his footfall, would help him get his death care reform program (”Hail Obama, He is the One we’ve been waiting for! He brought home the Gold! Let us follow Him in all things! Hail!”) and maybe even more mileage for other stuff he wants, and would cap off the end of the second term he’s probably sure is in the bag, too (just like the Olympics, lol).
Good gawd. Ostammer’s windbaggery alone would be enough to lose the gig for whatever city he was hustling for.
Michelle looks like her usual bitter, snarling, victimized, angry, insulting self in that photo. Yeesh, what a foul kisser she’s got.
Ostammer looks like he’s asleep. Maybe he’s got a mirror hidden down in his jacket cuff and he’s looking at himself.
Well, he basically bragged about what a great effort they gave it, “Sometimes you lose no matter how well you play the game”. Uh, okay. Right. Sure. Great job. Or maybe dissing the U.S. and bragging about me me me me I I I I I isn’t always the sure thing you think it is.
I think if ostammer had just loaded up those styrofoam Greek columns onto Air Force One and then placed them in the chamber where the meeting took place and stood in front of them as he spoke, that would have cinched it for them.
Wonder if the FBI tipped the IOC off to some impending arrests in Chicago...IIRC there have been over forty under Daley's command all ready this year.

I hope so. Chicago is a cesspool of crime and corruption. There is no amount of money that could pay me to live there. I spent a month there one winter, saw the sun maybe twice, most depressing month of my life. My car was filthy all the time from the pollution. I’m glad they didn’t get the Olympics. Thrilled they didn’t! They don’t deserve it and it was a way for their thug in chief in the WH to funnel billions of our tax dollars into the coffers of the thugs.
Everyone already knew and were dancing in the streets everywhere but Chicago. One reaps what one sows!
