(Hmmm... Does O. play the violin?)

Sep 28, 2009

I'm sure that the promote-Chicago team is paying for this travel? I bet the taxpayers wouldn't be too happy about picking up the tab on this one.

Sep 28, 2009

Does acorn get to scalp tickets?

Sep 28, 2009

And how much does all this cost? Is the white house going to sell World tour T-shirt's

Sep 28, 2009

So he's taking off again for Crawford for some lolly-gagging while the economy is in the dumps..............errr forgot that there was an election.

Sep 28, 2009

Self-promotioinal speech opportunity. Can't miss that, especially as there's Chicago payback involved. Issues in Afghanistan? No self-promotional speech opportunity. Ignore. Yer presdint at wurk.

Sep 28, 2009

Wow. Good to know the left's Golden God is on top of things. Whew. I feel safer already. I'm sure our troops and their families are thrilled the president is working hard to put the Olympic committee on notice as to what he wants them to do. He truly is the smartest, most strongest, bestest president EVER!

Sep 28, 2009

Don't forget, guys. This guy has LOADS of folks back in Chi Town to pay back for this election. And since the fundage pipeline to ACORN is rapidly being plugged, he's got to find other ways to take care of the situation. Folks who don't pay for services rendered in Chicagoland can wind up in really bad situations, don't ya know...

Sep 28, 2009

Another adventure for the guess-what-I-did-at-summer-camp presidency.

Sep 28, 2009

"President Obama will also meet with Prime Minister Lars Lokke Rasmussen."

Hoping to improve his poll numbers, no doubt. ;)

Sep 28, 2009

He's a hopeless poser. Unfortunately, he's taking us along for the ride.

Sep 28, 2009

Obama is too busy playing president to act presidential.

Sep 28, 2009

Obama has spent more time talking to David Letterman than the top general in Afghanistan. Now he is going before the utterly corrupt Olympic Committee to sell the utterly corrupt Chicago to host the 2016 Olympics.

Sep 28, 2009

WOW, a chance to hear himself talk again , pay off his buds (or is that homies??) in Chi-town, once more impress the Europeeens with his wit and panache -- aren't we glad that we have the Obummer in office to keep us safe?

Sep 28, 2009

Don't pick on the guy, he's just going to try to get community organizing approved as a regular event. If that fails, some feel he'll may ask for the "hurling racist charges" as an event.

Sep 28, 2009

Gee, I hope Iran doesn't decide to get frisky while President Me is sipping tea and eating cheese in Denmark.

Sep 28, 2009

How many times will he squeeze the pronouns "I", "my" and "me" into this speech?

No time for McChrystal and the troops in harm's way, but time for another self-serving speech in Copenhagen?

Hey people! Next time someone says experience counts, listen to them!!!

Sep 28, 2009

I wish this president would make a "pitch" for the United States.

But we must remember that he owes a lot to the Chicago Thugs, and that is who will make million from this Olympic circus.
And the taxpayers will pick up the tab for years and years and years.
Corruption is so deep it's amazing that we even exist at all.

In the next election, please turn off CNN, MSNBC, and the rest of the Lame Stream Media, and make your decisions based on separating the "Pretenders from the Contenders"

Sep 28, 2009

Can you plant enough trees to offset the carbon footprint from this trip?

Sep 28, 2009

Know this: Obama's gaot a great big dog in this hunt. His cohorts,( Axelrod, Jarrett, Daley,) are going to make personal billions for the development of the Olympic site if Chicago is "awarded" the site. Don't think for a minute it has anything to do with "Pride of Country" or national interest.

Sep 28, 2009

A completely dysfunctional President.
This is completely beyond the pale. He is acting like a small village playground director. God help us!

Sep 28, 2009

Obama is going there to apologize for all the medals that America has won at past Olympics.

Sep 28, 2009

Obama serves most ably in his absence.

Sep 28, 2009

Terrific, showcase U.S. corruption at its finest. With the problems the IOC has been having with their own corruption and questionable shenanigans, it will be interesting to see if they want to associate with the Obama/Blago corruption and crime festering in Illinois.

Sep 28, 2009

Maybe he should fly to Afghanistan instead so that he can spend some time with the commander and soldiers fighting and dying in a war

Sep 28, 2009

Isn't Jarrett a well known slum lord in Chicago? Will her properties benefit, if Chicago is chosen?

Sep 28, 2009

"I am not really a president, but I play one on T.V."..... Obama

Sep 28, 2009

Is this our dear leader meddling in international affair's? I thought he wasn't a meddler. He's been meddling when he should be fiddling and fiddling when he should be meddling!

Sep 28, 2009

coalitionoftheswilling.net --

Yes, he is a poser, a usurper, however, the only way he is able to take us along for the ride is because we are allowing it.

There were somewhere between 1.5 to 2 million in DC for the 9-12 March -- which was fantastic.

With a population of more than 330 million there should have been at least 10 million in attendance.
If we want to stop him, WE the PEOPLE are the key.

Sep 28, 2009

There goes our chances.

The winner.....

Sep 28, 2009

I need help in purchasing a new big screen TV. Since it appears that Obama has nothing else going on, maybe he can fly here to Denver and make a pitch to the seller to give me a great deal.

Sep 28, 2009

"There goes our chances": Nope, he wouldn't go unless it was a done deal. Nobody'd set the one up to possibly fail.

Sep 28, 2009

do you have any idea how much fed money will be spent on Chicago to prepare for the Olympics? hundreds of millions? maybe billions? all that money will go to Obama cronies and political allies.

Sep 28, 2009

Daley needs to land the Olympics in order to remain Mayor of Chicago -- the city is bankrupt and he needs to be able to funnel a continuous supply of money to his backers. The Olympics is just the ticket.

Sep 28, 2009

I would like to know if Air Force One is taking Michelle over and then returning to pick up Obama and taking him there?
I would also like to know if there is a log of all the trips Obama has made during his presidency?Seems he is out of Washington more than in it. But perhaps that is a good thing!

Sep 28, 2009

On October 1, a meeting of far-reaching global consequence will be held in Geneva between Iran and the P5 1. And Obama is going to Copenhagen that day to have one-on-one meetings with "targetted members" from Africa and the Islamic world on behalf of Mayor Daley? Even the makers of "Wag the dog" couldn't have come up with this.

Sep 28, 2009

The 2016 Olympic Poster was just released. What no Obama face on it?

Sep 28, 2009

Wow! And what kind of carbon footprint will this travel-palooza leave? So much for environmental concerns when it's about the Big O. Fortunately for BO, he and MO will be back living in Chi-town by the time the Olympics would come around, and he and his cronies could skim a bunch off the top for themselves. Please, choose Rio!!

Sep 28, 2009

The Olympics are one of the most corrupt enterprises on earth, and IOC meetings are off the Richter scale in self importance. No wonder Obama wants to go.
http://oceanaris.wordpress.com

Sep 28, 2009

This is payback for Axelrod, Valerie Jarrett all with deep financial ties to Chicago and who would profit handsomely if Chitown wins. Corruption, that force is strong around team Obama.

Sep 28, 2009

What should happen is that Congress needs to defund the White House travel account.

Does this guy ever work or is he just available for display?

What city in it's right mind would ever want the Olympics? It is a monetary burden the taxpayers should not have to cover.

Sep 28, 2009

hmmm. Let's see, when did Chicago submit their bid for 2016? Seems the fix was in a while back, and Obama and his minions have ridden the trojan horse right into the middle of things. I imagine O figures he'll get reelected and preside over the opening ceremonies and all that trap. I feel for the poor folk in southern Illinois. Forget about any largesse from the Windy city crowd. Pretty clear to me what's up. Crooked politics as usual with or without Blago!! Unbelievable.

Sep 28, 2009

He would rather skip town again than face the problems. Every time he speaks
out it's either to praise himself or
blame someone else. I'ts a con game,
shame on us!!!

Sep 28, 2009

Why would Obama want the Olympics to be hosted in a country he so despises?

Sep 28, 2009

Pot s legal there.

Sep 28, 2009

Irac, Iran, Isreal,Aphganistan, crappy health care bills, economy, unemployment, and obama's most important issues are expanding the school year and bringing the olympics to America. Wow what a president he is. I pray the nation can survive until the next election.

Sep 28, 2009

What the White House doesn't want anyone to know is that there is a sizeable number of people in Chicago and Illinois that don't want eh Olympics because we're afraid we'll be stuck with the cost--but I'm sure the media won't be reporting that.

Sep 28, 2009

Shame, shame!... Don't all of you realize you are racist for criticizing our beloved BO's effort to payback his conies?

Sep 28, 2009

How soon until they change the name from Chicago to Chicagobama?

Sep 28, 2009

And the Olympics will be known as the O-lympics, because I'm sure his face would be plastered all about the Olympic village and game sites.

Sep 28, 2009

Instead of "Hail to the Chief" the band should play "I must be going" from "Coconuts" .

Sep 28, 2009

Can you say "Carbon footprint!"

Sep 28, 2009

Your hatred makes me laugh. And what on earth will you do when Obama gets reelected? there is no one, not one candidate on your side that can beat this president. Well maybe these:
Palin/Bachmann
Huckabee/Chuck Norris
Romney/McCain
Glenn Beck/Ann Coulter
Good luck! and enjoy the olympics in Chicago in six years because you all must surely know that Barry Hussein would never fly to Denmark for 10 hours not knowing in advance that he was going to get it! Happy stewing to you all now.

Sep 28, 2009

YOU KNOW that Chicago ha sit in the bag, or Mr. Obama would not be making the trip. But this is strange, strange, strange.

Sep 28, 2009

Well if Obambi is persuasive enough to convince the Olympic Committee to give Chicago the Olympics I say that we should boycott the event. That's right, empty seats, empty venues, low ticket sales, will send a strong message to Obambi that we don't like him, his politics, his vision for the country.

Sep 28, 2009

I'm not the leader of the free world, but I play one, on TV. When I have my trusty TelePrompter.

Sep 28, 2009

This president is clearly unqualified to hold the most powerful office in the world. he's making it one of the once-powerful positions and countries in the world. Obama is putting our troops more in harms way. He is irresponsible and an embarassment to our country.

DO WE MISS GW BUSH YET?

Sep 28, 2009

I understand that thisis going to be the sales pitch

Chicago Stealing elections for socialists for 50 years

Sep 28, 2009

Obama's failed Presidency is a perfect opportunity to discredit three interlocking groups for the next 30 years.

1. The leftist wing of the Democrat party.
2. The Media
3. Blacks, for their blind 96% support of Democrats no matter what. A group that votes for one side in a manner comparable to Saddam Hussein's mock elections deserves a leader along those lines.

But I doubt the GOP strategists are smart enough to tie Obama's failure to these 3 groups, to discredit them for a generation.

Sep 28, 2009

I does serve the additional purpose of being a thank you visit to a small but extremely loyal ally that fights alongside the US in Helmand province. Denmark has lost more soldiers in comparison to its size than any other country in Afghanistan. These things matter!

Sep 28, 2009

I thought Michelle and Opera were supposed to be closing this deal... Step aside Ladies, this it too important and calls for a man's touch.
Could you girls run out and find us some danish? (Get it, danish in Denmark? I crack myself up sometimes.

Sep 28, 2009

t@g.com has it right! The repubs will be too stupid to use this to campaign. Just as they ignored the racist wright in the last campaign. We need some smart conservative leaders for a change.

Sep 28, 2009

if it werent for the mess that our former president created running after imaginary weapons of mass destruction, there would be no war or economy for our current president to clean up. hes just trying to improve the world's opinion of us as a nation

Sep 28, 2009

Smoke rises from the
Hindu Kush
The hour grows late
and Obama the Chosen
rides to Denmark
selling Chicago.

And you though the Lord of the Rings was just a movie! Hee.

Sep 28, 2009

I am assuming that the Chicago and or the Illinois Olympic cmte is paying for this obvious political "boondogle". Ha! Ha! When will we realize that everything Barry does is for his own sense of importance and to get reelected and do something about it.

Sep 28, 2009

I guess Afghanistan and our troops take a back seat to promoting Mr.Obama's home town for 2016.why do the have to wait.SUPPORT THE TROOPS FIRST! they cannot wait.

Sep 28, 2009

Something is "going to be" rotten in Denmark.
Let's hope that Shakespere's tradegty bears fruit with our King.

Sep 28, 2009

Is he going to meet the Afghanistan commander in Copenhagen?

Sep 28, 2009

Why are people sending in sarcastic & joke-type comments? We are in serious trouble here. Pres. Obama is not making a decision about sending more troops to Afghanistan & the world-wide terrorists are plotting every day to attack us here again in the US! Everything in this Obama admin. has NO final decision!

Sep 28, 2009

"Amused",OUR hatred?No matter what you acquire or profit from during this occupation-it will never be enough to change you into me on a bad day.

Sep 28, 2009

more evidence of misplaced priorities.

Sep 28, 2009

The Olympics-promoting gambit is merely a cover. Watch Obama huddle with the Danish government tax experts. They've addressed unemployment there by taxing at levels that make it impractical to work in Denmark. So all the potentially unemployed head out to live in other countries. Ingenious strategy, coming soon to your own USA neighborhood.

Sep 28, 2009

This is perfect! Former Chicago community organizer is going to lobby a totally corrupt organization (the Int'l Olympic Committee) to situate their games in a totally corrupt city (Chicago). And people have a problem with that?

Sep 28, 2009

Can someone tell me how much this little "celebrity trip" is going to cost us taxpayers? IMPEACH NOW!

Sep 28, 2009

Obongo's goal is to reach each and every TV camera in the world in 4 years. This empty suit will blunder into WW3 and we are all gonna be dead. Elections have consequences.

Sep 28, 2009

At least he does not hole up in crawford on vacation like gw did. I am sure you all were critical of his numerous vacations

Sep 28, 2009

After scanning these comments I now realize the South does not have a monopoly on absurdity. there is a reason Blacks voted 96% Democratic care to venture a guess? They are not voting "blindly"
the 09/12 march the attendance is only mistated by a number > 1,000,000 must get your news from fox

Sep 28, 2009

How many carbon credits is this trip using? What is the environmental impact? How many tons of fuel to get him over there and hobnob with the IOC while the economy, Iraq, Iran, N Korea, Venezuela, Gitmo, Healthcare, and record unemployment sit on the back burner?
What if President Bush had done this for Dallas or Palin for Anchorage under similar circumstances? What would the media be saying?

Sep 28, 2009

Is anyone keeping track of how much Obama's travel-binge has cost U.S. taxpayers thus far? He really likes to get around, doesn't he? The Denmark trip isn't just airfare, lodging, and food. What about the secret service, Air Force One, and more. Chicago politics, anyone?

Sep 29, 2009

I feel so much better to know Biden and Pelosi are looking after the store...aahhhhhhhhh...Can they keep him and mrs in Denmark forever along with all the other people baggage...good post "Krnykt"...

Sep 29, 2009

LOL...These a GREAT, but my fave is this one by: "megapotamus, Sep 28, 2009
Obama serves most ably in his absence." It's true, it's true...

Sep 29, 2009

Since our elected officals will not stand up for America I think we should have more Town Hall Meetings. We should all unite in the 2010 elections and have a huge turn out and fire some of these people who think they are above us. A house divided will not stand and the foundation is cracked.

Sep 29, 2009

There are two grammatical mistakes in the press release:
1. A comma should follow "Denmark" at " ... Copenhagen, Denmark[,] to support ... ."
2. A comma should not follow "Games" at " ... 2016 Summer Games[,] and how ... ."
I wonder if the teleprompter is usually chock-full of mistakes as well.

Sep 29, 2009

Barry is too full of himself to refrain from bathing in any kind of limelight. I figure that "Primping" is his reason for his lack of punctuality while everyone has to wait for his grand entrances. And Denmark will probably find a way to rip the Olympics from Rio De Janeiro since South America has never had one. Besides I am pretty sure Denmark doesn't want to see Barry cry, to hell with the rest of our country.

Sep 29, 2009

Hey Obama, be sure to show the video of a good Chicago student getting beat to death by gang members... Olympic tourists love that kind of thing and it shows how well you have organized your communit in Chicago!

Sep 29, 2009

When will the real president show up?

Obama is in way over his head and he needs to resign. He is not doing the actual job of governing and making decisions.

In any business, Obama would have been fired or forced to resign by now.

Sep 29, 2009

...and if he didn't go to Copenhagen and Chicago didn't get to host the 2016 Olympics he'd be blamed too.

Sep 29, 2009

Chicago got the bid already.... this is just theater to dress O up in pretty prose ..... The O folks would not risk a rejection after all this coverage.

The MSM news cycle, busy with stories of Denmark, will , of course, gloss over heath care, AfPak, Iran.. This Dark Marxist dictatorship and their marionette Obama have only one goal in news coverage ---KTSA - KEEP THE SHEEP ASLEEP!

Sep 29, 2009

Hey Barak; How many soldiers died on your way to Copenhagen, while you hide from your duty as Commander in Chief?
Dubyah made it look easy; The Great ones always do!

New events at 2016 Chicago Olympics (tentative): FISA File Folding .. Ted Kennedy Memorial SCUBA Diving .. Bill Ayers Whack-A-Copper .. Smoking Newports .. 100-yard Dash From Dead Honors Student .. Cwazy Cwazy Vetting

Sep 29, 2009

They both need to stay in the country and take care of things that are going on and leave the olympics to the committee. He needs to concentrate on the fighting and our men that are over there needing help. I guess he ignoring the plea for help.

Sep 29, 2009

THEY ARE BOTH JOKES!!!

Sep 29, 2009

they are both jokes.

Sep 29, 2009

Whats the carbon foot print on this little trip?

Sep 29, 2009

What a joke!

Sep 29, 2009

Every time Obama leaves the country on Air Force One with security and military he goes with up to 1,500 people with him. That's every time, Air Force One with military escort 4 C130's plus his advance security team and press. His dinner date in New York with his wife costs upwards of $500,000 to the tax payers. More time for that idiot Letterman than his own Generals in Afghanistan. Where the change?

Sep 29, 2009

Chicago is broke, schools in shambles, crime is everywhere, Police kill knife wielder in downtown loop at noon. 32 kids killed in Chicago in last year. Senator Dick Durban hiding under his desk from the people on Healthcare. Senator Roland Burris running from the press on Acorn, No Comment, Business fleeing Chicago and money moving to the suburb's. Does anybody know that Tickets for some of the Olympic events will cost upwards of $1,875.00. Mayer Daley added a $300.00 carnival tax to every ticket. Huge tax hikes for Illinois that won't go away in this one party entitlement city. But I suppose Obama has to pay off his gang in Chicago somehow. Obama, Chicago politics on a national scale.

Sep 29, 2009

Think about it. This is a loose – loose situation for Mr. Obama and the USA. Is this the first time a head of state has come to plead his case to the IOC for the Olympics? If not, I am sure it is the first time a sitting US President has done it. Typically the host city spends a ton of money without re-cooping its costs. If he gets the Olympics in Chicago, who will pay the bills? Everyone (US and world citizens) will wonder what deals he made behind closed doors. It will appear that the big bad USA came in and threw its weight around. The country’s that loose the Olympics will blame Obama, which will do no good for US relations. If Chicago does not get the Olympics, it will be a huge slap in the face of the President, Michelle Obama, and the United States. The world will be laughing at our ineptness. I have to wonder if the city were Phoenix instead of Chicago, would the president of the US go to sell his wares to the IOC. Nothing good will come of this.

Sep 29, 2009

This president will do anything to avoid a difficult decision. It means more to promote the ill-fated Olympics than to support our troops.

Sep 29, 2009

Another boondoggle for Obama and his flunkies, while real problems in the world go unattended. That will be his legacy.

Sep 29, 2009

What if he goes, and Chicago doesn't get the Olympics?

Will this mean IOC is a bunch of racists?

Sep 29, 2009

The Imam and Chief will do anything to avoid killing brother muslims.

Sep 29, 2009

Nice to see the adults are back in charge.

Sep 30, 2009

Absolutely not. Let's put a better foot forward than the Chicago corruption and violence by selecting say California and letting that revenue do some good rather than feed more corruption.

Sep 30, 2009

Responding to Patrick Carroll
Sep 29, 2009.

I'm almost sure it does!

Sep 30, 2009

It's time to think/talk IMPEACHMENT!

Sep 30, 2009

Mr Obama is doing the right thing. Why shouldn't a president lobby to bring the games to the US?

What are you people RANTING about? The Olympic games are a good thing in themselves and it is an honor to have them take place in a US city.

Oct 1, 2009

I bet alot of people wish we had President Bush back. Obama is scarey!

Oct 1, 2009

If I could draw, I'd use this for a potent political cartoon:
Split picture:
One side - flag drapped coffin arriving @ Dover AFB.
Alternate ide - Obamma @ IOC mtg in Denmark w/Chicago Olympics 2016 sign.

Oct 1, 2009

This just confirms what we already know. Barack and honey-Barack are away playing and spending our money while the congress is "playing" and "spending out money". Great!

Oct 2, 2009

I COULD OF USED SOME OF THE MONEY THAT THEY SPENT FOR THIER TRIP TO GET BY ON. OSAMA WANTS TO SPEND HIS WAY TO GOOD FORTUNE AND BESIDES IT IS NOT HIS MONEY. JUST LIKE BIDEN GOING TO IRAQ HIS SON IS HOME SO THAT WILL BE HIS LAST TRIP TO IRAQ TO SEE THE TROOPS SINCE HIS SON IS HOME.
