At least some people made some money...I noticed all the Chicago 2106 t-shirts...maybe some nice shirts to give to the homeless, at least some good deed will be done!
Sure. I know your kind. If it was a different city, you'd be all over it. Why do I suspect because it was the city that Obama is from, that is where the resistance comes from?
Failure? No, not really. They went to bid & unfortunately it didn't work out. Interesting that you guys salivate w/glee over something like this. You guys really are the true unpatriots of this country, you've proven it over & over again on this forum. Too bad.
Any negative news about US is a victory to certain people.
Did you complain every time Bush flew to Texas to work on his ranch? I don't think so but if our current President does anything, the RW'ers find a way to make it sound negative. For all of you who are happy that the Olympics weren't awarded to Chicago, you should be ashamed of yourselves. It's not a loss for Obama, it's a loss for the country and especially the Midwest region in economic gains. Of course, you'd rather be vindictive and selfish, rather than think of the people it could have possibly helped. Disgusting!
Helluva lot of difference between flying to Texas and Copenhagen. I wonder if the party is still on for the obamas and oprah? I say the obamas should get their butts home, take care of business HERE. Oprah can stay, however.

I don't think that's accurate for most people. The Olympics would just be a boondoggle for any city and cost tax payers a hell of alot of money at a time when we're already broke.
My theory is that the rest of the world loves Obama and the administration, but they don't like how divisive we are as a whole when it comes to him. Half of the country doesn't even support him, and the rest of the world sees that. They know what a dictatorship is like, and for people to even compare is like an insult.

So if I'm reading this correctly, you're blaming the failed Olympic bid on those Americans who DO NOT support Obama?

That's what I got out of it too.
