I am 100% against the potential for the Olympics here in Chicago. It will be nothing but a mess, will cost taxpayers a tremendous amount of money, and they're looking at it as if it's just some simple thing to throw together. They're going to displace thousands of minority citizens on the south side to build event locations, not to mention they will completely destroy perhaps the largest green space on the south side, Washington Park for the main stadium and other buildings.
I don't know if I care that much about Obama going, not sure if it bothers me too much, but I can't wait to see the turmoil here in Chicago if we don't get it. It's going to be a year's worth of entertainment watching the excuses pile up.
