The World Hates America...NOT Obama!!!!!

When Chicago was picked as a finalist for the 2016 Olympics, the city and America as a whole wanted to make the best impression possible and the best case to bring the summer games there in 2016. They pulled out all of the stops, and even played their two BIGGEST cards that they had...the BIG O's.

President Obama and Oprah Winfrey; with these two in your corner, who could you LOSE??? Apparently, very easily. Chicago was the 1st city to be eliminated in the finalist judging, even after President Obama and 1st Lady Michelle Obama flew all the way to Copenhagen, Denmark to support the bid.

Of course, the Obama haters made a BIG deal about his high enthusiasm and involvement in the Olympic bid, and criticized that he has more important things going on in his own country than to be "globetrotting" on the behalf of one city.

While this is true, with the wavering support for healthcare reform and the ecomony in ruins, I do not think that Chicago was not going to win the bid in the 1st place. With its reputation for violence, only made stronger by the death of 16-year-old Derrion Albert in the middle of a Chicago street, and its location in one of the coldest parts of the country, the Olympic committee probably looked at ALL of the pros and cons for each city, and the bad must have outweighed the good.

Not to mention the world's current mindset that America is the enemy! It is no secret that the entire world hates the United States, for their own various reason. Whether it is war and the economy, the world thinks that America has a superiority complex and think that they are better than them. In every category, America is a gluttonous and greedy super-bully in the eyes on the rest of the world. They take more than they need and that is why we are the fattest and greediest countries in the world.

I'm not mad @ the Olympic committee for picking Rio de Janeiro for the 2016 games. White sandy beaches & clear blue water would have made my decision easier too. The Olympic Village is probably gonna be on the beach somewhere, & I can't be mad at that, especially since the games are in the summer time...that is a major WIN!!!!!
