Chicago loses Olympics bid .....

[dissent]

... now whatever will the talking heads bloviate about ?????


I wonder if there are any jobs available to pack away all of the confetti and victory banners for the big parade ... that won't be happening.

I don't think Chicago ever had a chance, besides, we've had the Olympics in the U.S. many times. I was betting Rio and sure enough, I heard they just got it.

The Judges are racist!

Lol…yea Chicago got the least votes.

Well, Rio wins the right to go broke.

Which is usually what the Olympics is these days, I hear. I don't think even China made money on it because they overdid it so much.

Errr not directly. China operates in a strange way.

You know, those millions of dollars to ship Obama and his wife (on seperate jets, too) in and out for that occasion ... could have helped find a few jobs, among other things.

I think it was a waste of time for Obama to hop into that, especially with the riot trouble Chicago is currently struggling with ... IMHO, Obama had better things he should have been doing instead.




OK, so he met with the military leader of our Afghanistan forces ... but it's pretty obvious that one of the main reasons for him to do that was to give a non-olympic purpose for his part of the trip.
