Does anyone else find this offensive?

Considering he is ignoring the most important part of our government...the MILITARY! Also with unemployment down at an all time high in 80 years....1.5 MILLION JOBS LOST and over a quarter of a million last month ALONE...he goes to copenhagen with Oprah and others to get what? OLYMPICS that we have to PAY to build up and then tear down when it is done. WHAT IS THAT ? That is not growth and where are we getting the money! ANY JOBS will be temporary and that is not recovery. As for the money gained...it will be spent out and nothing really gained. But then the world might come here to see if they can see the village idiot and that might make money!

I am glad to know though that he thinks other things other than health care is more important...I agree on that one!

You do notice how he goes in and out of things ...and when the heat gets to be too much he finds another "Pet" project to occupy his time with. It isn't that he DOES IT...he just has to be on TV to BRAG about how he has so many balls in the air...and none on HIM!

The man is a village idiot and a bully and a global whiney sissy! I am sick of him. THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH RACE. THE MAN DOES WHAT HE WANTS and DOES NOT LISTEN TO AMERICA AND DOES NOT LIKE IT! HE has said so..and he certainly shows it in actions!

The man is despicable as a commander in chief who is ignoring our military. Not just ignoring them but tells them he will deal with them when he gets back from copenhagen while he talks about OLYMPICS! Our military is in bad shape and needs a commanding leader to TAKE CHARGE and SUPPORT THEM..not put them on the back burner after health care and OLYMPICS and LENDING GORE almost 600 million dollars to start a green car company (where is the government supposed to do THAT?).....!

NEVER IN HISTORY has there ever been a commanding leader that IGNORED HIS ARMY DURING TIME OF WAR!

HELL EVEN SADDAM HUSSIEN GAVE HIS MILITARY WHAT THEY NEEDED! THIS IDIOT IS WORSE THAN HIM

All of this grovelling while only talking to the General in charge of the War on Terror in Afghanistan just once in four months!! I guess it shows where his priorities are (wrongly) placed.

By the way, after hosting the olympics, Sydney, Australia was more than $2.2 BILLION in debt! Given the infrastructure that would need to be built (and the crime that would have to be covered up [unreported]), how much would the Olympics have to gross for Chicago to break even?

Wow, if you think a plane trip, albeit expensive, would be more than the Olympics would pull in you may actually retarded... Not that im supporting Obama or the Olympics being held in Chicago but this is a matter of your absolute stupiduty...

I wonder if the committee watched that video of the high shool kid being beat to death... Im sure people from around the world can't wait to get to Chicago now....

it incredibly is sickening that this guy or woman reveals this entire bloodbath relaxing. He needless to say has subjects with women and reveals horrendous violence and bloodbath suitable up his alley. This guy or woman ought to have sociopathic inclinations to impersonate a guy jailed for this way of undesirable crime. they don't have fun the two like he says they seem at it as an afternoon to mirror on violence against women around the globe and to commemorate the deaths of those harmless victims. it incredibly is like asserting human beings have fun Veteran's Day what a nut case he must be.

Presidents are always represented in these meetings, regardless of the Pres's hometown. You would have the same arguement if the city were in Hawaii (the president's birthplace) or in New York (he graduated from Columbia University) or Massachusetts (he went to Harvard Law).

The President represents us as a nation, not an individual state.

Yeah, thousands of Olympic jobs and millions of dollars for Chicago and the surrounding area is a bummer.

Soooo your saying that if you were a president of the U.S.A you wouldn't push your own hometown to host the Olympics?

Simple fact is no matter where he will pitch the location of the Olympics there will always be heated issues.

I know, but presidential duties are not as fun as globetrotting for photo ops and back door dealings, don't ya know?

Oprah is the president

It's even worse, Chicago didn't pay for his trip...the taxpaying public at large did.

Many people don't pay taxes, mostly dems, that's why they don't care what O does.
