BTW Michelle Obama owns a great deal of property that has been labeled substandard in Chicago. She would stand to benefit a great deal from the premium prices that the Olympic committee would pay.
    Bingo, we now have a winner! Right on the money, and that is not politically driven by the left or right, it's just the plain facts and is obvious to see. Oh and Oprah was helping beat this drum hard to as she would benefit from it also.
