Well it was probably the "pretty ridiculous" part coupled with the statement that you went and looked and it wasn't there.  If you read the first paragraph it was more of a general comment than just dkos, all the people around where I worked were making comments.

And it still seems to be going on.  From Orange, himself:

"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:"

The second, yeah, I'm mostly with you on.

For the wingers its "Any thing Our Black President is for, I'm against."

As the Dutch said while fighting the Spanish: "It is not necessary to have hope in order to persevere."
