So Much For The Olympics

After all the talk and hype about brining the Olympics to Chicago (which would've been a bad idea) Chicago was eliminated in the first round of bids for the host of the 2016 summer Olympic games.

The economic blog 'Cafe Hayek' put it nicely "Condolences to President Obama. Congrats to the people of Chicago."

So much for Obama's chance to look good. "Oh look i brought back the Olympics everyone look at me now!" Yeah i don't if you realize president Obama, but we have two wars going on and a recession, and you're talking about the Olympics. Which i might add would bring economic woes to Chicago. Hence why the polls showed that only 50% of the people in Chicago wanted the Olympics there.

I wish he was as persistent on stopping Iran's nuclear program as he was on the Olympics.
