I Love Michelle & Barak dearly Lord knows I do..but Michelle needs to lighten up on the Prez in public he's getting beat up in the media enough already by Ignorant People across America--she could show him more LOVE and SUPPORT in public!! How would she like it if he was rude to her in public--oh that's right HE would never do that!! because he always take the "High Road!!"

Obams Chicago Olympic Games-new sports suggestions

1) Pimp & Hoe Slap Down-
In a typical downtown setting athletes will be judged on pimp and
hoe attire similar to ice dancing as well as how fast a pimp can
slap down a hoe after running through a street mock up of down
town Chicago with street obsticles.

2) Crack Whore Alley-
A womans only sport the woen involved will be judged on
how skinny theyre legs are and how many tricks they can perfrom
on the male in a 4 minute period.
3) The Blago Shakedown-
Athletes will need to run a solid time in this course of taking
money on shake down from local business owners and the
person who collects the most cash will take the gold medal.
4) Burn down the local Korean grocier store-
Athletes will be armed with only 2 coke bottles and a single gallon
of gasoline to burn down a mock up of a downtown grocier mart.
Simulated Korean business owners will shoot bean bags out of
shotguns to slow down the contestants and the fasted time wins,
