Racism in the International Olympic Committee
Apparently Jimmy Carter's fellow southerners have not sewn up the market on racism. Carter can now add the International Olympic Committee to his small list of racist.

I, for one, will boycott the Rio Olympics due to the horrible racism exhibited by the OC.
Oh the humanity!
LOL. It was weird rooting against the U.S. to get the Olympics, but can you imagine the corruption and waste if Chicago had won? And gee, wouldn't it hurt our image around the world to act like we deserved them again so soon?
That is exactly what I think.
How dare they keep d'lympics out of Chi-town?
I KNEW that was the reason!
You know, I was having the same thoughts and was going to post about the "racism" of the IOC. Good job beating me to it!

Larry

Neil
"hurt our image around the world?" Nothing an Obama apology couldn't handle.
Timothy
"O" dear, I was not aware; that explains all!
Steve
d'lympics? Did we remove the "O" in protest? :)
Mary Lee
Give me back my shovel!
Joe
Given the only tactic employed by the left as of late-or possibly available-it was a very natural thought process.
Nancy
Indeed it would have, but as I pointed out to Neil, this is no problem for the wonder working power of an Obama apology.
Ha! This is great. I love your political satire; keep up the good work!
