Chitown out of the running

counting carbon! counting carbon!

 

[Theorist]

how big can the obama ego grow?

 

[Fatality]

the world hates us because of obama

 

[theDoctorisIn]

why would any city want the olympics...normally it just brings a shit load of debt...and look at all the olympic villages now..what is being done with them...why would anyone want to visit a city as violent as chicago?

Chicago is not a dangerous city.

 

[Midnight Marauder]

What a setback... The IOC rebuffs Barack, Michelle and Oprah totally. Chicago comes out LAST in the running for the summer Olympics. Billions of dollars of potential revenue lost.

What a shame.

 

[Terry]

LOL Obama got bitch slapped.

 

[theDoctorisIn]

So what exactly does this have to do with ACORN?

Better thread title for barry would have been:

Good

You mean even after our President himself shamelessly pimped his hometown? I just can't imagine such disrespect.

At least he went with an exit strategy!

I hear that he lost because some low-level staffer forgot to pack the teleprompter for his pitch.

 

[eagleseven]

And this man is going to create a nuclear-free world?

This is just...sad.

Actually, you might want to re-think that asinine statement.

Seriously, living with ones head firmly shoved up ones ass, lends one zero fucking credibilty!

 

[txlonghorn]

You right wing pea brains are proving that you are not for America or Americans...

whatever. You're proving your ignorance with name calling and false claims. You know as well as everyone else here knows that it wasn't EVER about America. It was about Chicago and ALL the people BO owes there.

Don't even try that Anti-American bullshit.

And the right wing pea brains cheering because GM sales down are about Detroit and ALL the people BO owes there.

Just think how happy you pea brains would be if al Qaeda detonated a nuclear bomb in an American city...

You're a chump...show me where ANYONE is cheering about GM sales being down. Unless you mean the numbers SINCE GM became GOVERNMENT MOTORS. The LAST thing I want is a great American made car and the hard workers who make it putting dollars in Obama's coffers.

I wont even address the other stupidity you wrote about nukes landing inside the US. You're just too gone to even try to save. Logic doesn't come anywhere close to you. You're lost in the wilderness of headupyourass.

people think that the olympics brings in cash...it doesnt has nothing to do with ring wing or left wing...has do to with the bottom line...

Former Host City Has Olympics Hangover - ABC News

Major defeat for the Obamatrons, the boiking was laughed at by the world and shown to have zero influence.

I bet the rock star was surpised he couldn't close the deal. I also bet it was a blow to his ego.

Two things. I am thinking that South America will get this. There has NEVER been one there. So, a First for the Olympics , a First for South America.


As for us, the US, I think that our rep in the world and our influence is all about bush, cheney, rumsfeld, right wing asshole fundy nutjob loonies, torturing people, going everywhere and starting wars, offending everyone, being the biggest racists on the planet, being the biggest bigots on the planet, being the biggest polluters on the planet, being the biggest thieves on the planet, and being the biggest liars on the planet, and that all is something that it will take the Obamas time to repair, but hey, what the hell, white folks have had to have Black folks clean up their messes for a long time now, lol.....

Nope, this is not about Obama, and what has happened here is all about what we have been doing for a long long time, shitting on the rest of the world. This has been a problem long before the Obamas came on the scene, and their egos can handle it. They know what they own and what they don't.

Besides, there is this:

Summer Olympic Games Sites

Yup, that pretty much sums it up!

Good

Why is this good?

Read the thread

Can't you back up your own assertion?

 

[Navy1960]

Just a thought here, I wonder how well this one is going to play in the green circles considering the fuel consumption of your Average 747-200, and of course there is the C-17, and of course there is the 757 that took the First Lady to this fiasco as well. One would think at least they could have justified this massive carbon footprint had they at least came in second.
