Obama drums up support for Chicago Olympic bid

Obama, Michelle tout Chicago 2016 Olympics bid at the White House. Transcript

Hold on to your damn wallet around this clown.

Our nation, from the local to the national level, is committed to the success of these Games. The Chicago City Council unanimously supports this bid. Both Houses of the United States Congress support this bid. I support this bid. And on behalf of the nearly 20,000 volunteers, the more than 1 million who've already signed up in support, and all who've already taken up this cause and made it their own -- first as the cause of the city, and now the cause of a nation -- the United States supports this bid.

The IL taxpayers, as usually, were not consulted.
 
E mail the Olympic Committee and tell them it is a bad idea to have it here, with the upcoming revolt and all.
 
The IL taxpayers, as usually, were not consulted.

:confused:

Of course they were, in the sense that they are represented in the IL legislature.

Is the IL legislature in any way against the Chicago Olympic bid? Or committed to spending no state revenues on the bid or the games? Either would be a very strange and astonishing development.
 
And this is a suprise how? every country that hosts the games has to make the money from somewhere, it just doesnt appear out of thin air you know..:rolleyes:

Yet another lame attempt to have a dig at Obama..

That's, sort of, the way it has always worked. There is more than enough to pick on Obama for without making shit up.
 
FOX-TV CHICAGO ORDERED NOT TO RUN ANTI-OLYMPICS STORY
Sun Sep 27 2009 21:56:11 ET

A local TV station that reported on Chicagoans NOT wanting the Olympics has been told NOT to run the report again, insiders tell the DRUDGE REPORT!

The Chicago Olympic Committee told FOX Chicago that its broadcast "would harm Chicago's chances" to be awarded the games.

The station's news director ordered staff to hold fire after the report aired once last Thursday morning, claims a source.

Chicago, Madrid, Tokyo and Rio are mounting strong bids for the honor to host in 2016.

The International Olympic Committee makes its decision on Friday. First Lady Michelle Obama will lead the in-person push.
