Today, the International Olympic Committee voted against the city of Chicago to host the Summer Olympics for 2016. So, I'm just here waiting to see which liberal is going to be the first one to do one of two things. That is either to say that since that it was President Obama, First Lady Michelle, and her Highness Queen Oprah the First that made the final pitch for the Windy City; and they were flatly turned down; (Chicago received the fewest votes), that the International Olympic Committee must be a bunch of racists. Or, the old liberal stand-by, that all this must somehow be the fault of George W. Bush.
I have my own two reasons. First that I believe that the world is tiring of the 24/7/365 "Barack Obama Show". That his novelty has quickly worn thin and that he is beginning to bore the rest of the world. All talk and no action. All charisma and no substance. I believe that the Europeans, the Asians, South Americans and Africans are noticing that he is no different than the inept milquetoasts that are in charge of the governments of their own homelands, and that the change for a "new type of government for America" is in reality the old ways that the citizens of these countries have lived under for centuries.
Second, is that the International Olympic Committee is not as stupid as all of the starry eyed and drooling followers of Oprah and the Obama's. Everyone there knows that the Chicago/Cook County political machine is the most corrupt in America. That Al Capone and Bugs Moran my be long dead, but the "Machine" is alive and well. The IOC knows that the money generated from any Olympic games will benefit only those of The Machine, and not any of the citizenry. That's why I'm glad we did not get the games and Rio de Jinaro has. Rio is getting the WORLD CUP and THE OLYMPICS in a two year period and the cash flow there has been needed for far too long.
If I were the mayor of Chicago, here is what I would have done to generate cash flow for the city. Recently, Mayor Daley spent millions of dollars to have Soldier Field, the home of my beloved CHICAGO BEARS, renovated and modernized. However I would have gone a huge step further. I would have spent a few million more to have Soldier field domed. Yes, with a retractable dome. This way, Chicago would be the only northern city that would have been put in contention and placed in the rotation to host the Super Bowl. We have the venues, the hotels, the restaurants and the transportation needed for such events. Yes, I know that would have been a great idea, but we have the liberal machine running Chicago.
Liberals think with emotion and conservatives think with logic.
One Super Bowl generates more cash flow than one Olympics Games.
