OK, I support this move because it may help to bring the Olympics to the USA in 2016. Tell me that in 2002 or 1996 when they were in ATL or Salt Lake you didn't think it was great to have that occurring on US soil!

I see zero reason why it is a negative for him to do that. While Jimmy is right there are a lot of big irons in the fire, a day of USA promotion is not a big deal! I highly doubt they shut the cell phones off on Air Force 1!!!

it's about time....especially since he spent nearly the last two years telling everyone that would listen that America sucks....no wonder they didn't want to send the Olympics here, probably heard that our health care system is in crisis and that our infant mortality, life expectancy and overall satisfaction rate is PATHETIC and other countries were probably worried that their athletes might die in our crappy hospitals...

craps on America when it benefits him...

praises(sort of) America when it benefits him...

it's all about him...

it's fun to hear the suck up media in abject disbelief and misery over the failure of their master...

Amazing how people would criticize Obama for trying to bring the Olympics back to American soil.
