Obama going to Denmark to pitch Chicago Olympics

How does Communism relate to wanting to get your country prestige and money by doing what is working for other nations? Didn't realize Communism has a monopoly on diplomatic efficiency and practicality.

But hey, I'm just glad we could find a way to turn matters of common sense into hyper-partisan issues.

I figured I would beat the hyper partisans to the hyperbolic punch, I thought I took it far enough over the top for it to be evident it was done jokingly, apparently this just underscores that it is impossible to outdo how far fetched some of the hyperbole is.. even in parody.

It doesn't help that I didn't read most of the posts up until this last page.

I wish I could find one of those OVERPOWERED posters with Obama on it and an Olympics symbol in the background. The quote beneath it would read:

"When a $100,000,000 isn't enough..."

But how much did the other nations spend before I decide if that's what's really going on? A $100,000,000 isn't that much for an Olympic gamble considering the immense sum of capital one makes from hosting the games. While it is possible the United States has invested more, having the president there to protect your investment isn't a bad idea if a smaller spending but still reputable country which hasn't had a turn in awhile makes a strong case.

It was an observation after seeing the two threads of ZOMG troops are dying obama doesn't care, he cares more about the olympics than the troops. That's the way it came off

No, you have absolutely no right to make that accusation. You have no idea the kind of bond that we form amongst ourselves. To suggest that the Rev would exploit his fallen brethren is absurd and insulting. I would recommend you apologize but that would require a measure of class that I’m not sure you possess.
 
Why shouldn't the Leader of the Free World go to negotiate for the world's greatest games. To be in the olympics is a great honor why shouldn't the president negotiate for the games on behalf of our great country? There's nothing risky about it. America has negotiated and lost the games before. I think you're overthinking this one

Because no president of this country has ever stooped to this level of irrelevance. Groveling to the IOC is beneath the office. Then again, so is this moron who'd doing it.

By the way, this would result in constructing massive venues for these events that would be basically useless afterward. Just what low-income housing will they demolish to accomplish this? There's not a square inch of Chicago available unless they start knocking stuff down.

By the way, who here doesn't believe that the fix is in, and this has already been awarded to Chicago in a shroud of darkness.

I mean, if Obama can't even deliver this............

I sense some face-saving going on here. It distracts from the other abject failures.

And doesn't Chicago have a long list of issues that are more pressing than conducting the Olympics right now? That is one troubled city right there.

Pisco sours are the official drink of peru they contain brandy

Ahh, I didn't know that Pisco Sours are the only cocktail in the world that can not be made in a non-alcoholic version. :roll:
 
That is incorrect. He is more concerned with Leno and the olympics than the troops on the Ground in Afghanistan.

Prove to me with his actions that I am wrong and I will concede. Until then stop "bitching" and having a "hissy fit" because I critisized your god king.

You're on, Rev. Now shut your piehole.

Obama meets face to face with McChrystal

AFGHANISTAN: Just before leaving Copenhagen, President Obama met with Gen. Stanley McChrystal, the top U.S. commander in Afghanistan, on the tarmac in Air Force One for about 25 minutes. While the meeting was news to the world, the White House had learned on Wednesday that McChrystal would be in London, and the meeting in Denmark was then set up.

Given these facts, it's entirely possible that Obama decided to go to Denmark just so he could meet with McChrystal face to face while also promoting his country on a world stage.

Gee. He's doing two important things at once. Will wonders never cease?

:doh

or he got caught being the troop neglegting buffoon that he is and is doing damage control.


You make so many excuses for the one. The emporers new clothes are lovely aren't they. :roll:
 
Drop it, Rev. Obama and I have proved you wrong.
 
You're on, Rev. Now shut your piehole.



Given these facts, it's entirely within the realm of possibility that Obama decided to go to Denmark to enable him to meet with McChrystal face to face.

:doh

Wow, he allowed McChrystal to stand on the tarmac with him for a whole 25 minutes. I'm sure Obama decided to go to Denmark only the day before he left, and on the day Michelle left to go there.

I'm impressed. :roll:

I'm sure they resolved the new strategy for Afghanistan with all that time to talk. Victory will soon be ours !!
 
Drop it, Gill. Your pitiful mewling about Obama caring more about the Olympics than issues in Afghanistan has been silenced by his actions.

I didn't even read it. so Obama is willing to fly and spend all sorts of time with the olympics, but the General commanding afghanistan is allotted 25 mins on the tarmac?


again, what ****ed up priorities. :shock:

25 mins on the tarmac, Wow, I guess Afghanistan is solved. :doh

I see you're not a man of your word, then. Big surprise, there. :roll:

Nice exaggeration. 25 minutes might have been quite enough to ask the questions Obama had for him. Considering he just sent his request in, it's not like Obama has been lacking in information from him. How substantive or effective the talk, neither you nor I know, but you once again assume the worst.

Actually I am. you lie cause your god king is a buffoon. FAIL :lol:



(whats with all you libs getting so nasty the past few days? :lamo:)

I assume the worst cause his actions or inactions speak louder than words.
 
Please shut up about it, Rev. You lost this one. Be a man.
 
Drop it, Gill. Your pitiful mewling about Obama caring more about the Olympics than issues in Afghanistan has been silenced by his actions.

Yeah, you must be right. He did spend 4 hours on the Olympics and a whole 25 minutes on Afghanistan. :doh

You're right. Actions do speak louder than words.
 
Drop it, Gill. No amount of manufactured outrage will change the fact that you're wrong on this one. Accept it and move on.
