Rival cities bidding for 2016 Olympics should use a little Dear Dope style politics

Reuters is reporting that:

Chicago's rivals to stage the 2016 Summer Olympics showed no sign on Tuesday of being fazed by the announcement that President Barack Obama would fly to Copenhagen on Friday to support the U.S. city's bid.

And why should anyone worry about former Chicago thug and current Dear Dope pushing the city with broad shoulders’ bid for the Summer Olympics? Just show this video of a Chicago teen’s death in streets while other Chicagoans go about their business beating each other in a street melee as if not much new is going on.

Just after the Dear Dope shows up, every other city in contention for the games ought to have about 10,000 DVDs of that clip and just start handing them out to everyone and anyone in Copenhagen. Let the Dear Dope try to umm and uhhh his way around that video.

How would other cities passing out DVDs of this incident be any different than the Dear Dope’s own political operatives clearing the political field twice for their own know nothing, do nothing, be nothing candidate?

CNN offered this insight into Dear Dope’s sense of fair play:

In his first race for office, seeking a state Senate seat on Chicago's gritty South Side in 1996, Obama effectively used election rules to eliminate his Democratic competition.


As a community organizer, he had helped register thousands of voters. But when it came time to run for office, he employed Chicago rules to invalidate the voting petition signatures of three of his challengers.


The move denied each of them, including incumbent Alice Palmer, a longtime Chicago activist, a place on the ballot. It cleared the way for Obama to run unopposed on the Democratic ticket in a heavily Democrat district.

And if dirty politics – is there any such thing any more? – got this buffoon over once, maybe it would work again. During his run for the US Senate, the Dear Dope pried open the sealed divorce records of his Republican opponent Jack Ryan. Then he sat quietly while his creepy henchmen smeared Ryan as mercilessly as those Chicago thugs beat that boy. Ryan withdrew, once again clearing the political field for the Dope.

Now, the Dear Dope’s buddies are trying to clear the political field of all opponents to Dear-Dope’s-a-care by calling us racists. Ahh, but this time the political opponent is 56% of the American people. So what’s a Dope to do?
