over, saving and running the 1992 Salt Lake City Olympics? But when President Obama tried to get the Olympics for Chicago in 2016 people booed? Like Pres. Obama said and I remember like it was yesterday when he said "I mean who boos the Olympics..come on" and shrugged his shoulders looking puzzled. Then when the Olympic committee awarded the 2016 Summer Olympics to Rio de Janeiro they showed scenes of people at a CPAC event or some type of Conservative event or Convention I'm not quite sure. They were were so giddy, some in tears actually as I recall, High Fiving each other, remember that everyone? Reporters and people need to bring up that "sad little tid bit" from not that long ago.

(2,307 posts)Romney is a white Republican guy running for president.
Obama is the black Democrat President.
Anything which could possibly help Obama win a 2nd term is bad.
#1 Goal: Make Obama a 1 term President.
Sad that such is the case, but I can only agree.
Their number 1 priority is to make Obama a one term president. They have no other formed agenda other than that one.
