The thrill of victory and the agony of defeat for Barry

An oldie but a goodie for the lurking DUmmies.
Obama makes a fool out of himself.

Obamas Fail in Personal Pitch to Bring 2016 Olympics to Chicago
Quote
But Obama's stumble may cost him more than the $1.2 million of taxpayer money to make the overnight dash from Washington to Copenhagen.
Didn't cost us much when compared to Barry's other screw ups but still worth pointing out.
Quote
Obama and first lady Michelle Obama risked their political capital and the prestige of the presidency on an enormous Olympic campaign that resulted in an early exit for Chicago and the top prize going to Rio de Janeiro.
Quote
"It demeans the office," said GOP consultant Brad Blakeman, a former Bush administration official. "For the president to be reduced to the effect of the Billy Mays pitchman for the United States to get the Olympics for his home city of Chicago is just not something that presidents do."

The least damaging screwup of his continuing stupidity. If only it had ended there.

For those who didn't listen to people like Hannity, and Beck about the chosen one, it was a milestone of a harbinger.

There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.

Beck was very prescient about all this, not too hard given all the relevant information was available for voter research before this sad tumble to Bananaville, but then he went off the deep end.

Too bad.  I was a big fan.

Liberal thinking is a two-legged stool and magical thinking is one of the legs, the other is a combination of self-loating and misanthropy.  To understand it, you would have to be able to sit on that stool while juggling two elephants, an anvil and a fragmentation grenade, sans pin.

He recently said he wished he had it to do over again.  Even though he was over the top, he certainly woke a lot of people up.
I've always wondered what his accuracy rate is.  I bet it's pretty high, and for that we should be glad he was on, even if only for a little while.

If you like your Olympics, you can keep your Olympics.

When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.
