Copenhagen, Denmark--President Obama, joined by Oprah Winfrey, flew to Denmark to personally pitch his own ego as the site of the 2016 Olympic games. But Olympic officials rejected the proposed site on the grounds that "while President Obama's ego is certainly large, it is an imaginary place in an imaginary world."Administration officials defended the president's proposal to host the games in the enlarged ego section of his psychic apparatus, arguing that Obama's sense of self-importance is so strong it should have "overwhelmed the collective id of the International Olympic Committee."
"In the end," said one Olympic official, "the logistics of hosting the games in a figment of President Obama's imagination would have simply proven too costly when other real-world places were available to us."
