This is not a new story. Lot's of people are well aware of the facts. The Ed Show ran a story on this in February, 2012.

IMO, it seems particularly relevant now that Mitt has decided to knock President Obama for saying that people get help when they start businesses.
Below is a link to a video on YouTube that describes the $1.3 BILLION in federal support that the 2002 Winter Olympics got (and they only made a profit of about $100 million). So without Federal money, they would have been $1.2 BILLION in the hole.
GREAT JOB, Mitt -- ON YOUR OWN, YOU LOST $1.2 BILLION. Who needs government help? Not Mitt!

In the video John McCain rips the 2002 Winter Olympics funding.
Enjoy.
When does the Obama Campaign run this one AGAIN?
Right after the Republican Convention??
