Over at the orange place they actually have a piece up about this being "anti-Americanism" and another about Obama not being socialist enough for the IOC. Hell the last on is probably true, he ain't socialist enough for me, either.

Strikes me as pretty ridiculous to pretend that I'm saying this is the only thing being talked about at all. But I do think the fuss is amazing, maybe you don't. Seems like you have a little burr under your saddle, which would be odd for you, but whatever. Just don't say you went and looked and what I said was there, wasn't there. If you'd really gone and looked you would have seen the diaries since they were still in the queue when I went back and linked them. "I said, 'Wait a minute, Chester, You know I'm a peaceful man...'"

Blatant anti-Americanism, except that Rio is in America, isn't it. south America. Heh, the fuss over here is amazing. don't you guys get it, we are ready to lead you again. we are ready and have a shiny new president who really is smart this time.
...which, taken with the comment on dKos, suggested to me that you're were portraying that as the general theme of the reaction.
If not, then okay, I misread you. I did go and look, and I didn't see it. I didn't say it wasn't there. How you took that to mean me saying, "ZOMGLIAR," I don't know.
I assure you I'm not the one with the burr under my saddle. Conservatives want live babies so they can raise them to be dead soldiers. - George Carlin
Remember what Sarge said "Let's be careful out there" keep to the Fen Causeway
Anyway, like I said above I thought it was unlike you to get your panties in a bunch and start parsing words but.... "I said, 'Wait a minute, Chester, You know I'm a peaceful man...'" Robbie Robertson
"So when did wingnuts start cheering against America? Their unbridled joy at losing out to Brazil is a bit unseemly, isn't it? "America, fuck yeah!" has become "Fuck America, Yeah!"
While Chicago likely lost mostly because the country has hosted plenty of Olympics and South America never has, and because of lingering anti-American sentiment, this certainly didn't help:" "I said, 'Wait a minute, Chester, You know I'm a peaceful man...'" Robbie Robertson
The second, yeah, I'm mostly with you on. Conservatives want live babies so they can raise them to be dead soldiers. - George Carlin
