MICHELLE OBAMA TO CAMPAIGN FOR CHICAGO AS 2016 OLYMPIC SITE

obama-special-olympics

The White House announced today (September 11) that First Lady Michelle Obama will make her way to Copenhagen, Denmark, in support of Chicago’s bid for the 2016 Olympic and Paralympic Games. The President is apparently too busy dealing with this little thing called health care so his senior advisor Valerie Jarrett will join Mrs. O. on the trip.

Michelle will attend the 121st International Olympic Committee Session at the Bella Center in Copenhagen on October 2. That’s where the host of the 2016 Summer Olympics will be selected from the remaining four candidate cities: Chicago, Madrid, Rio de Janeiro and Tokyo.

Meanwhile, today, the President and First Lady rolled up their sleeves and helped out a little as they toured a Habitat for Humanity project site in Washington to highlight community service on the eighth anniversary of the September 11 attacks.

The pair worked on painting a wall of one of the homes under construction. When asked how he was doing on his paint job, the President said: “I don’t think you’re going to have to re-do it. After we’re gone you’ll be saying ‘that wall is really messed up’.”

    She’s helping bring the Special Olympics to America. I am sure Republicans will somehow find a reason to bash her for this too. Or at least call her or her husband a liar.

    Her husband is a liar and a thug, cheat,puke and a socialst - and thats just the top
    They wont go to thug city for the Olympics - anyone with half a brain cell and works for a living knows this.
    She should honestly have someone pick her clothes out - she has no style at all.
    No need to bash her - she bashes herself - should I post the links on how stupid she is?

    Why would Republicans bash on the Special Olympics? If I remember correctly Barack is the one who like to crack wise on the Special Olympics. Lol.

    Ugh. Nice chucks. Too bad she’s not wearing one of those tacky plastic belts….

    You’d better sit down, folks.

    Article 31 of the Iraqi Constitution, drafted by your right-wing Bushies in 2005 and ratified by the Iraqi people, includes state-guaranteed (single payer) healthcare for life for every Iraqi citizen.

    The GOP rhetoric is full of this “quasi- truths” built in the most simplistic understanding of events, leaving half of what matters behind.

    But they are so IGNORANT it is likely they don’t even understand this.

    Leaving FACTS behind is easy to make cases.
    You are bringing an example that is not the case in point: the president addressing the congress vs the president being booed by a big crow on the street.

    Bush’s abuses of power and fraud with the Iraq war were beyond belief therefore the discontent. (let’s not even talk about the type of “leader” he was).

    The case against Obama is based on half truths, whole lies and a rhetoric that advocates for all types of fearful doubt when in fact the only true thing that matters for the republicans with money, is to appeal ignorance while they abuse corporate power.

    None of the self proclaimed “truths” are even facts!

    Again, the whole “look, a bird” while they sac the country! the mighty DOUBLE SPEAK mastered by the NeoCons.

    Do you know this FACT:
    The article 31 of the Iraqi Constitution, drafted by your right-wing Bushies in 2005 and ratified by the Iraqi people, includes state-guaranteed (single payer) healthcare for life for every Iraqi citizen.?!
