A major theme of last night's speeches at Americans for Prosperity's "Defending the American Dream Conference" was, ironically, out-and-out gloating about Chicago's failed bid to host the 2016 Olympics.
Mike Pence was in attendance and had this to add:
Following shortly after Ingraham, Rep. Mike Pence (R-Ind.) got in more political barbs about the loss of the games. "After those first-round results," said Pence, "it looks like the president has had about as much luck pitching Chicago to the Olympics as he had pitching health care reform to the American people."
If a Democratic congressperson said something similar about Dubya, they would have been accused of treason and of being Anti-American. I doubt Michele Bachmann will be asking the media to investigate Pence for being Anti-American.
Oh, and this is an interesting statistic:
Chicago 2016 CEO Patrick Ryan said a poll conducted last week shows 72 percent of Chicagoans back bringing the Games to the city while 84 percent of Americans support the Games.
