And, erm…just how much noise would Barnes have made had Obama NOT attended and Rio gotten the bid?</p> <p>My God, do people actually pay this simpleton money? Winos conversing with lamp posts make more sense.</p> So, Fred BArnes thinks that President Obama embarrassed himself by showing up–as did the other heads of state (all but one of whom also lost the bid)–when eveybody knew the U.S. wasn’t going to get the Olympics, anyway.
