BBC news lack-of-perspective morons

According to the BBC news at 6, Rio's Olympic 2016 win (and Chicago's loss) is like:

"an international referendum on [Obama's] first nine months of leadership"

Er....what? Yeah, absolutely, the world is totally bummed by Obama's healthcare reforms and have really stuck it to him through this decision of the IOC, hell yeah!

Also, apparently, Rio won by basing their bid on sport! Who'd have though it? Basing an olympic bid on sport? That's the kind of revolutionary thinking you get in South America! We'd never have thought of that here...er...hang on...
