Bullspit a place to spit your bull!

With American or should I say, Chicago politician arrogance at its finest, President Barack Obama with wife Michelle visited Copenhagen to pitch their bid for the 2016 Summer Olympic games to be held in Chicago.

Many say the President should not have left amidst discussions on the most controversial bill facing American citizens sense the 1930's. But he did anyways, and Chicago lost in a shocking defeat! Chicago wound up with the fewest votes of the four cities in the first round, partly it seems due to a late sympathy surge for Tokyo, which had widely been expected to drop out first. Considering the Brazilian city's strong and passionate case for taking the Olympics to South America for the first time, they deserve it!

This irrational decision by the US President underscores critics skepticism of Obama's in-ability to make sound priority decisions.

IOC Australian member, Kevin Gosper stated "I can only believe that it was an accident or a mishap of group voting. I honestly don't think there was a group that would deliberately seek to insult the U.S. president and first lady in the first round."

Really Kevin? Obama's been bouncing around as the savior of the free world for better than 8 months as President, and didn't begin there, remember the trips during his campaign? Stick to America and our interests Mr President, we now more than ever need sound leadership decisions rather than the 2016 games. Granted, they would have been nice, and economically helpful for the city of Chicago, still not exactly that "pressing" matter we'd expect our President to address. How about Afghanistan?
