   I guess they figured after the Olympics failure Obama and MO better stay away. Besides, it isnt like Holder has anything important to do hear at home…./sarc

   Well, I think Americans who don’t want to discuss the World Cup in 2022 are cowards. I bet Holder feels the same way…

   Eric, you can bring the “world cup” here in 4022 and we still won’t care.

   It is NOT football.

   OK, I finally get it.

   All this time I thought Obama and his cronies were trying to destroy this country’s economic system because they hate that it was founded by white men who created a system that ended up making the country the greatest the world has ever seen.

   No, that’s not it at all.

   What’s really happening is that they are trying to destroy the country’s economic system because it creates wealth so we can afford to play sports like football, hockey, and golf — sports that require fancy equipment that people in poor countries can’t afford. Most of the countries in the world are poor, but all it takes to play a soccer game is an open field and a rubber ball, so almost every country in the world plays soccer. There are many poor countries who have better soccer teams than the US. So if we become poor, Holder thinks our soccer team will improve so much that maybe by 2022 we’ll have a chance to win the World Cup and wouldn’t it be wonderful if that happened right here on a field of our own.

   Forget it, Holder. If we get that poor, real Americans will go back to playing stickball in the streets. I’ll know this country is lost forever if we ever contend for a World Cup.

   Do you know the difference between World Cup soccer and B. Hussein Obama?

   I’ll watch World Cup soccer when it’s on TV.

   I’m sure that promises of some form of “stimulus” will be used to actually get Americans to go to and/or watch said event.

    U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder will join former President Bill Clinton and Academy Award winner Morgan Freeman on Wednesday at the final presentation to FIFA’s executive committee of the U.S. bid to host the 2022 World Cup.

    Let me guess – Valerie Jarrett has slum property near the venue…

    this will be just in time: by 2022, if everything goes according to Ear Leader’s plan, the US will be a broken down, destitute borderline Third World hellhole that will desperately need the billions in dollars of graft so the ruling regime can retire to somewhere else to live in comfort.

    Our competitors for 2022 include Qatar, South Korea and Japan.

    My conspiracy theory — Wikileaks is meant to create tension in the Gulf region while the NK situation continues to create fear of war in North East Asia. This knocks those three countries bids out and we get it by default!

    Come on Yanks!

    Why shouldn’t the attorney general be soliciting for the world cup rather than prosecuting crime? After all, NASA’s chief mission is now outreach to Muslims, and DHS is going after dangerous music sharing websites.

    The World Cup is more important to this administration than your family’s well being.

    Prosecuting terrorists (sorry, “man-caused disaster suspects”) and investigating the WikiLeaks fiasco will have to wait, because the chief of the US Justice Department has more immediate priorities:

    That’s called a punt! Do they punt in soccer?

    Holder: I keek de ballz!

    Is he getting paid to do this? What on earth does that have to do with his job at DOJ? Come to think of it, whatever he’s doing at DOJ doesn’t seem to be working, either.

    You are so right…this has nothing to do with his job. On the other hand, he is out of the country. That is a good thing. Now, if we get the World Cup…they’d better leave those horns out! They sound like a hoard of bees buzzing around Obama’s head!

    I’d rather have some sort of World Curling Championships hosted here. I’d find it more interesting than soccer.

    I’d rather watch the World Wrestling Championship than the World Cup Soccer championship. Jesus, a bunch of guys running around for an hour and a half with MAYBE 2 minutes of excitement. Sounds duller than watching grandpas playing shuffleboard in Miami. Leave it to this president to want to bring 100s of thousands of the world’s oppressed to America so they can overstay their visas and become Auntie Zuni or whatever her name is, and go onto our welfare roles becoming good democrat voters.

    Could be. But when have you seen this administration be that clever? Usually, Obama’s failed socialist policies are right out front for all to see.

    It could also be that Holder is there for both the world cup and to get Assmange. Which one do you think will be successful?

    Eric is Obeyme’s principal lap dog. He goes and does exactly what he is told to do. Soccer is important to this psuedo-president for some reason, maybe because it’s NOT American Football and also because most Muslims countries like the game.

    What does it matter what he’s doing? It’s not like he was doing his job anyway.
