I don't wish failure upon or celebrate the failures of Obama any more than donks wished failure upon and gleefully celebrated the failures of President Bush.

Treasonous bastards.
I think this could be correctly be stated this way. Republicans want OBAMA TO FAIL as they feel HE IS A TREASONOUS BASTARD.
Obama is not a U.S. citizen, so it isn't treason. :roll:

I do not want Obama to fail, but I do think he already is a failure. Maybe treasonous, too.

On top of that, both Michelle and Obama made speeches. Obama put his reputation on the line by making his speech overly personal. I know you Donks are trying to brush this off as no big deal, but when you go to this much trouble and at that expense, Obama had A LOT riding on that Olympic bid.
I didn't vote for Obama, and he certainly isn't my guy, but I think it's pathetic that some conks are celebrating his failure - if indeed it is his failure. It was wrong when donks celebrated Bushs' supposed failures and it just as wrong now.

It would have been cool if Chicago had gotten the Olympics. All Americans lost today. Sometimes we need to Americans first and put the petty party bullshit aside.
I am not celebrating Obama's failure and agree that it would have been cool for Chicago to host the Olympics.

But Obama's risky decision to invest so much of his personal reputation to support the Olympic bid does call into question his judgement and the abilities of his political team. How the hell can they justify not supporting the Democratic candidate for NYC mayor because he can't win and then stick their necks out on the Olympic bid?

There is always a risk when Presidents elect to put their personal prestige on the line. Obama's high profile failure compares unfavorably to Tony Blair's successful pitch to woo the Olympics to London.

Mitt Romney, for one Republican, has priased the President's decision to support Chicago's bid.

Unfortunatley for Obama, this just invites another strikingly unfavorable comparison between Romney's successful high profile turnaround of the Salt Lake City Olympics and Obama's administrative ineptitude. Not just Obama's Olympic failure compared to Romney's success. Instead of turning around the economy, Obama has deepened the recession.

Okay, I think that calling Obama a treasonous bastard is completely over the top, and represents perfectly the right wing's inability to rationally criticize the darkie who stole their office from them. :coffee:
