Chicago just recently lost it’s bid to host the 2016 Olympic games. There were no shortage of supporters for their cause, ranging from celebrities like Oprah, to politicians like President Obama, to local city merchants and plain old sports fans. And as you can see from this NY Times photo, the disappointment when the announcement was made was palpable.
Sadly there were also no shortage of detractors, ranging from Glenn Beck & Fox News, to Rush Limbaugh and the Drudge Report. These people felt it was more important to damage the reputation of one of America’s great cities, so that it might in some insignificant way tarnish the reputation of our President. Wow. How patriotic can you not be, while simultaneously wrapping yourself in the flag?
These are the same people who wouldn’t brook any slight to President Bush during wartime, calling the Dixie Chicks traitors for example. Yet now some like Sarah Palin are doing the exact same thing the Chicks did, insulting the President on foreign soil during wartime. Where is the outrage from the right wing pundits now? I’ll tell you where, nowhere. It’s non-existant.
Sadly this double standard from the far right is just too common to be newsworthy.
This gang of ideologues has damaged the reputation of America, and all patriotic Americans should be offended by their behavior.
