Re: Olympics "the ego has landed"

Hahahaha ...

BHO, Michelle Obama, Oprah Winfrey, and the Mayor of Chicago couldn't win the votes!

Michelle Obama even used her best Oprah moment and tried to use her fathers disability to win sympathy votes ... didn't work.

To put this in perspective ...

Prime Minister Tony Blair personally appealed - and won London's vote for 2012
Russian President/PM Vladmir Putin also personally appealed - and won Sochi's vote for 2014

They got it done ... BHO couldn't.

I love it!

Not true at all. The Olympics are in 2016. Most construction will transpire 1-2 years before the opening ceremony. The criminals in Chicago would be posturing for buying and selling their land in the next few years.

http://www.som.com/content.cfm/chica...ic_master_plan

SOM has a rough masterplan. They built the Sears tower. I spoke with the project manager that built the tower. He built it in a year. No new Jobs there. They are building a Tower in Dubai which tops off in 2011 and people transfer to other work before they would have don Olympic work. I can name 5-10 american firms that will have a part of engineering, design and build in RIO. Most physical jobs will be demoliition in the next few years starting a couple years from now.

The Deodoro sports complex is in use and was in use for the 2007 Pan american Games in Rio. I have with other members hosted a sailing venue and olympic trials in our yacht cub in the past. This is a planning stage and fund raising starts soon. I am familiar with the Pan am games.

They say ignorance is bliss!
Rio is one of the most dangerous places in the Americas. When we visited the Alvears in Brazil they told is not to go any where in Rio. We had a 5 hr lay over in Rio and because of the danger we stayed in the airport.

Like Chicago and Detroit. Brazil says abortion is illegal. (exeption criminal rape)

Do you want to delete abortion stats as a measure of danger?

The reason it flopped is they wanted rio. Obama is a bad salesman. He told the IOC why we wanted it and forgot to tell the IOC reasons it would benefit the IOC. Obama violated 3 rules of selling.
