Pander alert AND hypocrisy alert – Obama silent on Olympics for Chicago

Barack Obama, like Hillary Clinton, hits the Daily Double on the politics of non-change today.

Clinton actually has a leg up on one progressive stance vs. Obama. She has called for a boycott of the Beijing Olympics opening ceremony and he hasn’t.

And why not, pray tell?

Chicago hopes to get the 2016 Olympics. And, one of Obama’s top campaign advisors and close friends, Valerie Jarrett, is the vice chair of Chicago’s bid committee.
