Sean Hannity, on his radio show Friday, said that the reason Chicago didn't get the Olympics is because Obama "has been going around the world and trashing America."
Um, say what? That short statement contains so much bullshit it might take several paragraphs to unpack it.
So we're supposed to think that Obama's "trashing of America" (really, apologizing for the undoubtedly terrible stuff Bush did) has turned world opinion against America, to the point where they want to punish us by not giving us the Olympics. But Obama is therefore persuasive enough to convince the world of America's perfidy, but not enough to convince them that an American city should have the Olympics?
