He's still president zero.

well technically, that equation means either Oprah or Michelle is ZERO...

if Obama was a value other than zero, it would not make it equal zero....

Was it obvious from the start? Rio was going to spend more than the other 3 competing cities put together!

I guess technically someone could be a negative.

i was hoping they'd get snubbed, just because Oprah was involved.

know your place, fat talk show host. and know your role. interview your guests and STFU.

Rio has a habit of making BIG promises for events like these then falling way short on delivery.

Why was cash for clunkers such a success?




It got rid of 250k Obama stickers.

Actually this joke is better for that picture:

What's the difference between God and obama? God doesn't think he's obama.

It also means Obama would have to be 0 as well.

If Obama=1 and Michelle OR Oprah=0, then 1+0x4=1. For that equation to always be 0, then Obama and either Michelle or Oprah would need to be 0.

I guess Obama lost some of his luster. was it a waste of a trip for obama?

I'm glad Chicago did not get it, let the other cities lose money.

I think it was a vote against america. Even Tokyo recieved more votes.

I was thinking the same thing about Obama... isnt the world supposed to LOVE Obama? And he was campaining as president for his hometown? How did he blow it?

im torn on this. on one had chicago was going to majorly screw the tax payers of IL. But i wanted to get tickets to go see. bummer.

Fox is going to say something like "Obama loses popularity! world does not care!" and MSNBC,CNN etc will have "world is racist! votes against Obama!"

clearly the IOC is just racist. how can they turn down the first black president of the world?

i think the problem was that Obama said all the circles in the olymics logo had to have his face in them.

Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand,
Just like that river twisting through the dusty land
And when she shines she really shows you all she can
Oh Rio, Rio dance across the Rio Grande.

Top 10 Reasons Chicago Didn't Get the Olympics

10. Dead people can't vote at IOC meetings
9. Obama distracted by 25 min meeting with Gen. McChrystal
8. Who cares if Obama couldn't talk the IOC into Chicago? He'll be able to talk Iran out of nukes.
7. The impediment is Israel still building settlements.
6. Obviously no president would have been able to accomplish it.
5. We've been quite clear and said all along that we didn't want the Olympics.
4. This isn't about the number of Olympics "lost", it's about the number of Olympics "saved" or "created".
3. Clearly not enough wise Latina judges on the committee
2. Because the IOC is racist.
1. It's George Bush's fault

LOL michelle obama pulls a hillary

Here is video of Michelle Obama's pitch to the International Olympic Committee in Copenhagen, where she said at around the 1:10 mark of the video, that some of her best memories are of "sitting on her Dad's lap," watching the Olympics, and "rooting for Olga, Nadia, Carl Lewis and others for their brilliance and perfection."

Uh, Carl Lewis was born in 1961, and Michelle Obama was born in 1964. Lewis first participated in the Olympics in 1984 - when Michelle was 20 years old! In her rush to be overly dramatic, she forgot to check some of the facts.

WHo cares if Michelle is a zero that has no bearing on it, unless she and Barak are zeros.

I can't believe the people in chicago will even be surprise that they didn't win. you go against a beautiful city in a fast developing country on south america which has never hosted a olympic, i don't think any city will be the contender against rio de janerio this year.
