  • Hey Obama, while you were out pitching for your "hometown" with your golden cow Oprah,... some poor kid was beaten to dEATH on those "hometown" streets of yours. And... not ONE peep from you about it!  Obama, c'mon now, you know you are full of shit,... just admit it. the world sees it - go rio!

  • Get mugs, shirts, posters, and postcards on Obama's Olympic failure and ACORN corruption. See my profile for link, then click Obama on left side.

  • I was honestly elated to hear that the new Commander in Thief was shown the door. His attempt to repay the crooked people and organizations he associates with have fallen short. I hope the trend continues and his liberal socialist agendas continue to fail.

  • Where's ACORN when you need them!

  • Unfortunately, Obama did not bring ACORN with him - Buses are not good enough to cross the ocean!

  • Yes, and they all didn't line up for pix with Pres. and First Lady of any other nations except ours. No one else's leaders went over with impassioned pleas of how much it would mean to their families, etc. No one else needed to be slapped, in the opinion of the IOC.

    They were "slapped" because it seemed, at least the media reported that it seemed like Chicago had it in the bag. Then to be dissed so bad, man oh man, that smack must hurt!

  • coolmom I believe you and your friends on the right are projecting your own desires onto the IOC. They don't think about "smacking" presidents and prime ministers. Were the leaders of Japan and other countries who didn't make the bid also "smacked" or dissed?
