Can you imagine the cronies that were licking their chops thinking of the money they were going to line their pockets with in Chicago?

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!
Sick!!!!! Hundreds of unemployed people will not have a good paying job and you love it. Work would have started immediately if AMERICA had won. AMERICA is not whats important to right wing wackos.Anything to stop Obama is your goal no matter if it will help AMERICA or not. SICK!!!

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.
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.
