MSNBC moron: Republicans not supporting the Olympics is like Jane Fonda supporting the Vietcong
posted at 8:27 pm on October 2, 2009 by Allahpundit
An almost poignant moment here as one of the many leftists who spent the past six years wrestling with his schadenfreude over setbacks in Iraq finally gets an outlet to project his guilt onto conservatives. Truly, celebrating the fact that the Daley machine will have to find another trough of taxpayer money from which to feed is precisely the same as Hanoi Jane sitting on a VC cannon and mimicking shooting down American aircraft. Thanks for confirming every last horrible conservative stereotype about MSNBC, Ed. If they ever move the modern-day Murrow out of the anchor spot, you’re a shoo in.
Stick with the clip to the bitter end or else you’ll miss Jan “Trojan Horse” Schakowsky blaming the entire debacle on Bush. Click the image to watch.

Obama tried to turn the Olympics pick into another Obama commercial for his never-ending campaign. The media were all-in.
It blew up in their faces. Hilarious.
Moesart on October 2, 2009 at 9:02 PM
Well of course it’s the Republicans fault in liberal land.
Just like health care not getting passed because of Republicans even though the democrats have filibuster proof majorities in the House,Senate,and have the White House.
Just like it’s conservatives that are “crazy,racist,extremist” at the town halls even though it is the democrats that are beating black people down in the streets while yelling racial slurs and biting people’s fingers off.
Well of course there will be many stories of faux outrage against conservatives by the liberals.
This is all they have.This is all they did for 8 years while Bush was President.
“It’s Bush’s fault”.
There policies and ideas are absolute failures so all liberals have is to use their friends in the press to demonize their opponents.
Please liberals, go with the strategy of “we got our butts handed to us with only 18 votes and it’s Bush’s fault”.
Absolute genius strategy there.
Please don’t look at the obvious fact that the economy is getting worse and the President has played golf almost 10 times more than he has met with “his” own general in charge of the Afghanistan war.
It’s not like we should dare question the Presidents priorities, no…no…no….that’s racist.
Obama’s health care plan has now plummeted to 33% approval…guess that’s Bush’s fault to.
Great strategy libs….see you in 2010.

I don’t think most people think of the Olympics in that way at all. They are OK with not winning, but I think they’ll be surprised that even THIS wasn’t supported by the far right.
It really doesn’t add up to most people. It just looks like what the left has been saying: Pure hate, regardless of the issue.
Anyway, I think the real answer is that’s the truth. That’s why people clapped. I’m rather glad I never felt that way about Bush, and I don’t feel that way about this administration.
Man, that kind of attitude will give you people strokes!

Obama wasn’t handed anything today. He got a swift kick to the rump or perhaps a football to the groin. Whatever, the way he skulked back into DC with some sort of lame comment congratulating RIO was a good thing.
Let’s remember, Chicago did not just lose the bid to host the Olympics they came in dead last. Not even the bronze medal. No source of revenue for Obama cronies. Nothing but an arrogant narcissist brought down a few pegs.
highhopes on October 2, 2009 at 9:04 PM
What makes you think it was conservatives? The idea of an Olympics coming to Chicago was stupid on its face. A city that is filled with corruption (by their OWN admission), with a ridiculous crime rate, not nearly enough infrastructure and huge confiscatory taxes already, should not be placing a further burden on its constituents by holding these games.
Political doesn’t enter into it until Duh Won gets involved.
john1schn on October 2, 2009 at 9:04 PM
My definition of “stupid” has changed. So have my definitions of “irrelevant,” “idiodic,” and “non sequitur”. “Asshole” too. “Dipshit,” “Dumbass” “Asswipe,” “Nimrod,” “Meathead,” “Fuckwad” . . . .
. . . wait a second. My keyboard just caught on fire.
The Reasonable Man on October 2, 2009 at 9:04 PM
anyone remember how bush was raked over the coals when Dallas didnt get the 2012 Olympics? Or Houston?
Of course not cause Bush didnt plop himself in the middle of ticky tack crap like that! He didnt try to make everything about him! Obama deserves every bit of crap he gets for this. If he had just stayed home it wouldve been no big deal. Now he has shown what a empty suit he is to the whole world, which makes the country weaker when dealing w/ China, Russia, Iran, North Korea, etc, etc.
Hillary was right about one thing, its not a position that lends itself to OJT. FU McCain.

You must have cracked that wine box at 10am in anticipation of good news.
You are so full of it to suggest that not supporting this bid makes one anti-Anmerican. I’m glad the filthy lying coward came off looking petty and irrelevant. That’s just because anything that hurts Obama is good for America.
I’m more glad that South America is finally hosting an Olympiad. What you really can’t get around is the fact that the IOC made the right choice. It isn’t convient for you lefties who still adore the filthy liar but the fact of the matter is that Rio should have been given this opportunity.

hawksruleva on October 2, 2009 at 9:16 PM
The truth of the matter of the selection is, though, that even what is probably the most corrupt city in the US was not corrupt enough to deal successfully with the IOC. It took Rio-level corruption to bring home the bacon. Daley’s dead father must be so ashamed right now.
It is going to take a good decade of Obama’s Third World domestic policies before we can hope to catch up to Brazil or Venezuela.
(You know, like Rio’s cops clearing the streets of “unwanted” kids — this round should begin about 2015 in earnest — but at least Brazil has signed the United Nations Universal Declaration on the Rights of the Child. Guess I know where I want to be a child…. )
notropis on October 2, 2009 at 9:16 PM
LOL WUT?! Forced meme fail.
Supporting the Troops =/= Supporting the OLYMPICS. What kind of equivalence is that!?
The thing is, NO ONE HERE (in Chi) wanted the games. No one. Anyone who did was like “Yay! Olympics! ^_^” without thinking of the costs.
The city just sold (ok, LEASED for 75 years) all the parking meters to a private firm — and the meters were ONE source of government-run revenue in this town — and the rates shot up like crazy! Why? So the city could take in a cool $75mil to boost the Olympic Dream coffers.
All parking is now even more expensive, and the rate is flat throughout the city, except downtown where it is MORE expensive. Hours are extended. Sundays are no longer free.
No one wanted these games. Transit, road congestion, property taxes, rental rates — all would go sky high as the city would tax tax tax to fund the games. Some kool-aid drinkers were all “It’ll help the south side! ^_^” but it would not have, and the gentrified north side neighborhoods would have been bled dry.
I love how this has become such an unnecessary nation-wide POLITICAL issue in the past week or so, linking it to parties and Obama and whatever else. Whatever. Chicago did not want the games. No one I knew, Dem or Repub, wanted the games. SUBURBANITES sure wanted them, but they aren’t footin’ the bill!
Besides. We already HAD the “Olympics” in the form of the GAY GAMES (the Gay Olympics — an international event). Did Obama attend that, being the paragon of gay rights liberalism that he is? Did the DailyKos and DU trolls go on and on about those? Hell no. So the hypocritical, screaming left can shove it in their pie holes.

venividivici on October 2, 2009 at 9:17 PM
Chicago is a neat city as is New Orleans. Neither is the right choice to hold an Olympiad. The cost overruns from corruption alone would bankrupt the entire project before one brick was put in place.
highhopes on October 2, 2009 at 9:17 PM
Oh Ann, grow up. You sound like a liberal. Think with your brain instead of participating in some cheerleading fantasy gone astray.
Surely you understand the utter corruption of Chicago. No Olympics should ever take place there.

Better they take place in Rio, where, you know, there’s no corruption.
(I know, I know. This way it’s someone else’s corruption, and someone else’s money being skimmed. I agree with you on that one. But let’s not leave the impression that Chicago got passed over because it was too corrupt for the IOC….)

Knucklehead on October 2, 2009 at 9:23 PM
There are 3 reasons conservatives were happy about the IOC decision. In what I think is the correct order:
1) It showed that the world isn’t totally in the tank for the Apologist-in-Chief. It’s now clear that Obama didn’t magically make the world love us by his mere presence.
2) Chicago is filled with corrupt politicians and dirty businessmen, many of whom have close ties to Obama and his staff. The loss of the Olympics deprives crooks of money.
3) The Olympics generally costs the host city millions of dollars. Chicago can’t afford that, nor can Illinois, nor can the United States. Sure, what’s another few billion dollars for us? But somewhere the lavish spending has to stop.
hawksruleva on October 2, 2009 at 9:24 PM
The filthy liar in the White House made it a political issue when he abruptly announced he would be going to Copenhagen. By doing so he had to deliver. He should have stuck with he original script that unfortunately he was too busy doing the work of the American people to go personally. If they needed a representative for the Administration (other than Michelle Obama), Biden could have gone.
The problem here is the filthy liar’s tendency to meddle in areas where Presidents should be above the fray. Going to Copenhagen and playing Amway salesman on behalf of Chicago is one such example as is opining on the actions of the Cambridge Police during a nationally televised press conference. He cheapens the office he holds when he pulls this crap.

These two pieces point out how dangerously naive our amateur and chief is on the international stage and at home:
Obama’s French Lesson
Sarkozy could not conceal his astonishment at Obama’s naïveté.
http://article.nationalreview.com/print/?q=ZWI5ZTE1NzA4NmYzOTg0ODAxNzNiM2JlMTM3NGU2MjY=
By Charles Krauthammer
“President Obama, I support the Americans’ outstretched hand. But what did the international community gain from these offers of dialogue? Nothing.” — French president Nicolas Sarkozy, September 24
The world is seeing what conservatives saw in Obama before he was elected.
An amateur who makes decisions based on what’s good for Obama, not America or the world.
This is probably a good reason why the economic mess has gotten worse:
(via powerline blog)
Paul Rahe: Obama’s wrecking crew
http://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2009/09/024617.php?format=print
So basically we have Jennifer and Rahm running the country.
This explains how Obama continues to tell America that the stimulus is working when all indicators show that it is not.
This explains why Obama continues to lie about the healthcare bill by saying it will not increase the deficit or reduce the quality of care even though his own CBO says so,Medicare quality will not be reduced even though they are cutting 500 billion out of it with 30 million baby boomers coming in….so on….and…so on…and…so on.
We will get the same corrupt ignorance on Afghanistan as Obama tries to convince America that going against what the Generals need for victory and allowing Afghanistan to go back to al-qaeda/taliban rule is the right thing to do.
It’s all Bush’s fault.

Do you really want to go there sport? After eight years of Bush/Cheney hatred? Seriously? Let’s talk about hate. I would call hate an actual movie depicting the assassination of a sitting president. Hatred is hoping that our troops fail in Iraq for pure political advancement. Hatred is wishing death on anyone with a dissenting opinion (Tony Snow, Laura Ingraham, Rush Limbaugh, etal). Bush was routinely portrayed as Hitler on leftist websites. That might be hate. Booing a sitting president during the State of the Union Address- pure hate. I could literally fill up an entire library of books illustrating the hatred churned out by the left on a daily basis for everything conservative.
More recent examples of pure hate from the left: republicans just want you to die quickly,angry swastika carrying mobs, knuckle-dragging neanderthals, etc., etc., ad nauseum.
Go peddle your BS somewhere else because the victim card doesn’t wear well coming from a bunch of haters.

The main message here is that when you’re on top you have no friends. Ever since this totally incompetent tyro took office he has been apologizing for the United States. Worse, he has been dissing the former president in front of often hostile strangers, many of whom, would gladly WMD the US if they ever got the opportunity.
Small wonder then that when a groveling, obsequious, whiner sucks up to them, that the response, instead of gratitude, is contempt added to a pre-existing loathing. Obama’s embarrassingly obvious attempts to say “I’m one of you and not affiliated with the former bastard” makes them avert their eyes as if a small boy had just soiled his pants in a public place.
The shame of America is not that the IOC firmly rejected Obama’s bid for Chicago but that a reckless, spoiled, undisciplined, arrogant fledging has again led with his chin and has been been knocked on his ear by a smirking European gentry.He may act like them but he has not been accepted into their club.
MaiDee on October 2, 2009 at 9:53 PM
Come on, it’s obviously conservatives’ fault that 45 % of Chicagoans opposed this bid. We all know how powerful conservatives are in Chicago. It’s not like a conservative has less of a chance of winning in Chicago than Jackie Mason does of becoming president of Iran or anything./
VanPalin on October 2, 2009 at 9:53 PM
Thank you,
Hard to get your head around liberals still blaming their failures on Bush and Republicans when they have no power what-so-ever on the Hill.
Liberals can blame and demonize conservatives all they want, but nothing will hide the domestic and international failures Obama is instituting.
They are all his.
democrats have total power.
They spent years telling everybody how much smarter they are.
It is going to take more than their friends in the press to cover this train wreck Obama is constructing.

Baxter, you are right on the money. Charlie Gaspario makes mention of the fact that the President appears to turn to Valerie as an economic advisor, among other things.
Really a must read article: Burned By ObamaLink

Are you kidding? Half of Chicago was cheering the news. They know what the garbage was about, and that they don’t need the Olympics to sell their city. It certainly wouldn’t clean it up.

As BarryNapoleon was trying to deceive the neighbors in Chicago he was also tricking his own sheeple. The scapegoat was again SnowBush. Whenever anything went wrong it became usual to attribute it to SnowBush. In fact many of the claims begin to sound ridiculous to the objective mind. This time it was even said that BrerJordan was his accomplice. Of course, Squealer AxleGreasy’s mission is to keep everything clouded in the minds of the sheeple.

No one ever said you had to be intelligent to work at MSNBC.
Hell, just look at Chrissy and Keefums.

Once again, another idiotic Lib is putting the cart UNDER the horse.
In the case of the Obamalympics, its not a problem with the Olympics that conservatives have – ‘though goodness knows, like the U.N., there are things to have problems with.
In the case of the Gangstaland (aka Chicago) application to foist itself upon the world in 2016, the problem is having that criminal conspiracy known as the Windy City be representative of this country. I sure don’t care for that. It’s quite the slice of bizarre humor to have put that foot forward on behalf of the U.S. Wasn’t there any other city available that was better representative of what makes America great then that sleazy slice?
No – we don’t hate the Olympics. We just don’t want it, and this country, to serve as just so much more criminal payback and graft for the Chicagos and Obamas of the world.
