Hey righties -where does the Constitution say anything about the olympics?

[Katzndogz]

Congress can grant a sum of money, in this case the rather paltry 342 million, as part of its discretionary spending. The US government does not fund the olympics. We are one of only three countries that does not.

As the Salt Lake City Olympics was held in the United States, the one time grant was appropriate because when the Olympics are held in a country it advances that country's standing and prestige. The Los Angeles Olympics probably cost even more.

"Troubled for so long, Salt Lake's Olympic preparations were finally rounding into good shape when the events of 9/11 injected fear into the picture."

So, yeah, I guess to secure out nation...yup, that's in the constitution somewhere.
You find it

Please tell me which of the enumerated powers allows it. thanks

Sure if by "does not fund the Olympics" you mean "funded the Olympics to the tune of 342 million"

And again, which of the 18 enumerated powers allows it?

 

[OohPooPahDoo]

he didn't

congress did

you're not too bright, are you?

Sorry, but under which enumerated power can Congress spend money on the olympics?

Congress can spend money on the security of our country.

Which enumerated power allows Congress to spend money on the Olympics? Please quote it directly from Article I Section 8 for me, I can't find it.

Find it for yourself. Use your common sense.
I already pointed you in the correct direction.

Neither can you. Is it because it isn't there or because you can't read?

Thanks for answering a question I didn't ask.

Now please tell me by what Constitutional authority Romney was able to spend my money on the Olympics?

Thanks!

congress did

you're not too bright, are you?

Sorry, but under which enumerated power can Congress spend money on the olympics?

you'll have to ask one of the right wing fuckwits that

i'm busy right now

laughing at you

[Steelplate]

He assumes...he's been trained wrong.

Sorry, I thought you guys would be voting for someone that reflects your values.

Neither candidate truly reflects my values one just does so a little more than the other. For the record if I have to see tax dollars spent on something I would just as well it be the Olympics than something like Solyndra.

of course you would... because renewable energy is baaaaah'd....oil, coal and other fossil fuels is gooooood.

Hey righties -where does the Constitution say anything about the olympics?

Romney, who is now visiting the opening of the London Olympics, subsequently registered as a lobbyist for the Salt Lake Organizing Committee and secured $342 million in direct funding from the federal government and another $1.1 billion in indirect financing from Washington.

The Constitution doesn't say a thing about the Olympics.

Well?

This is one funny thread, oops poops can't seem to get anything figured out. Some people such as oops poops are not logical or reasonable, so it might be best to not to waste time trying to educate the hopeless.

It's best to leave OOPS to his own devices. He's an idiot that can't figure it out no matter how many attempts to eduacte him.

He needs to go back to his masters and tell them that he is a failure.

Maybe. Too many have tried to educate him. HE has refused and comes back more idiotic than before.
