Hey I am in Chicago
& use public transit all the time
but it needs improvement
& that would cost less that what we pay Halliburton

7.7 Billion? That's a couple of weeks in Iraq! We couldn't afford it.
The Olympics wants to take our cars away!!!!
Wow. Martin Bashir at ABC said some seriously vile things about Obama.
We are anti-Olymics in Chicago, but if they come through our condo is for rent . . .

Damn, I read that as anti-DeLay sheets.
When is Hot Tub Tom's jury trial gonna start already?

"Federal dollars" seem to only follow corporate interests now.
Richard Daley later visited Tianamen Square, where he said "If my dad had had tanks we would have squished those fuckers in 1968."
The 2016 Olympics should go to Rio anyway...South America and Africa both need to host the Olympics soon.
Not true, Atrios - the only viable Supertrain technology runs on gold medals.
Daley could probably improve CTA in one stroke, by telling them to stop trying to kill the transit manufacturing companies with which they contract.

Havana would be a cool choice.
Can one of you smart people settle a bet?
I haven't watched the winter games since "Bolero" was the shizzle. Is snowboarding an olympic sport yet?
It's a shame that many cities see hosting the Olympics as their big chance to score federal dollars for infrastructure projects.
Why you wanna suck all the joy outta the Olympics propaganda extravaganzapalooza?
Curious locals, including a few of the 100,000 volunteers blanketing the city, followed the mayor and photographed him with their cell phones.
No photo opportunity was too small.

Google going crazy with Olympics artwork, and they link to shorts about Beijing.
My favorite was a tour of the underground city built during cold war times.
If the 2016 Summer Olympics went to Rio, would they hold them during the Southern Hemisphere summer or winter? It could be very confusing. Heads would explode one side of the equator or the other.
Last night (well, here, anyways) during the opening ceremonies broadcast, either Costas (who can't prounouce Cape Verde) or that shitstain Lauer mentioned that the Chinese are going to land a Han on the Moon by 2024.
We should fucking have a colony there right now, but we've been too busy enriching the MIC to do so over the last 40 years.
Yes, snowboarding is a big sport at the Winter Olympics; snow half-pipe was awesome.

Yes. Winter Olympics.

Shouldn't be a problem.

One of the more fun to watch events, and the athletes are like "Dude, this is so awesome to win this gold medal"
"Re hee wit Lichad Dayree"
Racist much?
And where exactly would the Olympics go in Chicago? On barges in the lake? Or out in the horrid suburbs? I don't think that location would help the El.
We should fix our infrastructure and power grid before we mess up the Moon.
why is jayuff sayshuns advertising on eschaton? he's even more stupid than i thought.
Waterbording when Jenna or not- Jenna get appointed President & US next hosts games.

Those things are deteriorating for the same reason we don't have a base on the moon: we're wasting trillions on war and preparations for war to enrich a tiny group of parasites.
Daley has a bunch of sites neat the lakefront, using parks & razing a closed hospital complex. & Suburbs for horsie stuff

The cost of properly swirling toilet basins should also be included in any southern hemisphere Olympic bid.
Snow snorting was an Olympic event back in the 80s. The 10 cm dash was the most exciting, one had to stay on his own line or face disqualification. The Bolivian judge gave me a 9.9 for sticking the dismount.
When I was in the ring, mostly in Warren, Akron and Cleveland, I showed mercy. When the other corner wouldn't throw in the towel I stopped pounding anyway. I was over to me and I did not want to maybe hurt him bad.
I don't know what made me remember those times.
chicago is ready to host an olympics. more public transportation would be great (how 'bout more lines to the south side, mr. mayor?) but it could happen without them and folks would still be able to get around fine. i wonder where they want to put the athlete's village? there isn't really room downtown, unless they get to use some of the school and university spaces, which i suppose they could.
It's ok atrios some countries are seeing the olympics as their big chance to quell revolts and start wars while the eye of the news is on beijing
I don't know what made me remember those times.

i see someone answered my question, thank you for reading my mind.
the moon would be a great place to be 'developing,' but until we fix the mess here i have to regretfully agree with plants. and that's saying something for me, i've always been a scifi dreamer.
See boosh at the opening ceremonies, looking bored shitless? At least laura plastered a smile on
Has any motive been given for that attack on the two Americans in Beijing?

NPR reported on some "America go home" sentiment among Chinese who were deeply offended by American tourists wearing filter masks in the smog. Some apparently saw it as a slap against their hospitality.
That was the first thing I thought of when I read about the stabbing.

El Fucktardo Maximo, not so much. Probably pissed one of his handlers took away his Gameboy.
tomdurk, i wouldn't worry about filling those condos. now, the prices may have to come down in order to get them sold, but the developers have plenty of taxloops and absorb loss and turn it into profit, i'm sure. but all those folks out in the exurbs are going to need a place to live, once they realize they can't afford mcmansions, suvs in the face of the coming energy inflaction. it's just not going to be worth it, all that distance just so they can be away from the brown and black people. integration, bitches! like it or not, it's coming.

I was in Chicago a few months ago and was gobsmacked by all "luxury residential" high rises going up on the north side. Who the fuck is going to buy all those? I guess they cross teh point of no return in financing, etc, long before they break ground. I don't think there are enough foreigners willing to buy up cheap US real estate, a lot of people are going to lose a lot of money, I think.
Special mention to the one being built by Loyola U named "The Clares". I'm surprised somebody with a collar didn't veto that.

No, they'd rather force the DFH West to take all their shit.
Didn't Salt Lake City LOSE a shitload of money hosting those games?

Well, I can understand that to an extent, but the Chinese, of all people, trying to imagine that they're being "green" is laughable.
I heard a marathoner dropped out of the marathon because he didn't want to breathe the putrid Beijing air for 26 miles.

"Predator Pilots Suffering War Stress
August 08, 2008
Associated Press
MARCH AIR RESERVE BASE, Calif. - The Air National Guardsmen who operate Predator drones over Iraq via remote control, launching deadly missile attacks from the safety of Southern California 7,000 miles away, are suffering some of the same psychological stresses as their comrades on the battlefield.
Working in air-conditioned trailers, Predator pilots observe the field of battle through a bank of video screens and kill enemy fighters with a few computer keystrokes. Then, after their shifts are over, they get to drive home and sleep in their own beds.
But that whiplash transition is taking a toll on some of them mentally, and so is the way the unmanned aircraft's cameras enable them to see people getting killed in high-resolution detail, some officers say."

You know all this Drill here Drill Now shit the republicans are pushing?
What would be nice to see is some quotes from the Rich Republicans who opposed the drilling the last time. In Santa Barbara.
I want to make it so that people see that people with money and power don't want drilling and not because of a good cause, they just don't want their view spoiled. Let them absorb some of the RW hate for a while. That would be swell.

The L and CTA in general fucking suck, but not so much because of technology. If you built a billion dollar fancy light rail system in Chicago it would get fucked up in no time by the corrupt management and workers and riders who don't give a damn.
Atrios, what's shame is that it will/must take a "let's win the Olympic host-city sweepstakes" to pry loose the money needed for upgrades. These things just have just been done, steadily, for years. By analogy, it's like a car owner saying, "I don't know why this damned thing keeps breaking down. It worked fine when I bought it in 1958." (Think Edsel.)
2010 Olympics (and 2 BILLION dollars) got us our SUPERTRAIN!
