Yep, they say we were leading before he showed up. Many on the committee were upset he jetted in there and jetted out in less than 5 hours. So the score is Tony Blair 1, Vladimir Putin 1, and Obama a big fat zero.
Another thing of note that pisses me off, is Obama spent more time talking to the Olympic committee during that 5 hours, than he has speaking to his top general, Stanley McChrystal, since he appointed him to take charge of Afghanistan. He needs to get his priorities straight.

Olympic committee=five hours worth of his time
Our troops in Afganistan=twenty-five minutes of his time
Priceless interlude on a liberal scale |
