Buzz,
I am happy that Rio got the Olympics but not because it is any kind of slap to our president. I was in Seattle when they had the Worlds Fair and the crowds and expense of putting on an Olympic or World Fair event are enormous. And Chicago is areal pain of a city in my opinion. To cold and windy much of the time as it is close to the lakes. Also has a history of crime that makes most other places seem relatively safe. I wouldn't want to live in any city that staged either of these events as the taxpayers are paying for them for years after they are over.
Now Rio is a place that I wold love to go to watch. Also to just see the sights there as I have never been.
