Default World Gives Obama A Big F U
Not even putting Chicago in the final 2 when they were a prohibitive favorite to win should give Obama a sense of world view of America at this minute. Maybe he should've stayed in America this past week instead of hobnobbing with this bribe taking group.

I think this is far more a loss for the mayor than Obama who i don't think gives a crap about Chicago or Daley. This was Da Mayor's baby. Locally the people were just showing up for the victory party only to be told go home.

Dell, to not even be in the final 2 is a world wide slap at Obama. If he had simply lost to Rio, different story....The fact is I really think Obama is arrogant enough to go over there and think it will fall in his lap. I'm, tired of the news conferences and late night TV shows.

Exactly...Their final 45 minute presentation was a snooze fest and no one trusted that Daley could pull it off without bankrupting the city.

Randall..he had to go man...He didn't want to but was in a no win situation. If he didn't go and they lost it would have been unpatriotic, etc.

I heard more than once Daley wants to add another star to the city flag and this was his chance

Nonsense, you think Bush goes? He didn't have to do anything. Trotting out Oprah and reading from the prompter should be enough....The problems are here. We simply don't need the Olympics here. I'm happy for Rio. Now create some jobs and pull the troops out.

They wouldn't have asked Bush because he was an idiot. But that's a different subject. It's not like he was the first World Leader to go to this

SO he was underexposed? If there is a country in worse shape economically than the US it is Britain. And I'm not sure the Olympics is a net gain to an economy at all....GB has by far a worse debt problem than the US. They'll implode before we do.....but we won't be far behind.

Or maybe he didn't bribe enough people. Talk about corrupt. Who gives a **** about the Olympics. No one.

I was thinking the same thing...someone/something is going to pay for this. Maybe closing the International Terminal at O'Hare?
