We Was Robbed!

Chicago (my home city) was just voted out first in the Olympic host city bid. I'm not surprised we lost because I've always thought Rio had an inside bid (as of this writing nobody knows who is going to win). But I AM surprised that we lost out in the first round, especially since President Obama went and made a direct pitch! There's a message being sent here and I'm going to have to sit back and think about what this means for world politics and for the USA.
