Senator Rowland Burris of Illinois, the Senator who was appointed to fill President Barack Obama’s vacant Senate seat, blames George Bush for Chicago not getting the Olympics in 2016. Burris stated in an interview, shortly after the announcement, that the image of the U. S. has been so tarnished in the last 8 years that, even Barack Obama making an unprecedented pitch for the games could not overcome the hatred the world has for us as a result of George Bush. Wow! When will the Democrats in Congress ever get off this “Blame Bush” syndrome. Burris even went on to say that this is just another way Bush is now hurting Chicago. Yes blame Bush, don’t mind all the crime and corruption that has come out of Illinois over the last year. This “Blame Bush” strategy is getting pretty old.

He just needs to crawl back under his rock in Chicago and stay there.
6 degrees to Blame Bush.
Blame anything on the 43rd. From ingrown toe nails to losing the Olympics. All it takes is 6 connections or less.
This is why I am a strong advocate for mandatory drug testing of all politicians.
Must be on his crack pipe again.
Losers. all of them
I cant express how happy I am that they did not get it - just more money to the machine in Chicago. And a side benefit is the fact that ole Hussein got slapped down personally - serves him right thinking he is all that - and dont even get me started on that idiot wife and ofra windbag....
The man who loves other countries as much as his own stands on a level with the man who loves other women as much as he loves his own wife. - Theodore Roosevelt
Typical of the Left ... blame someone else ...
‘Blame Bush’ has evolved from an excuse to a punchline. Like the term ‘racism’, it no longer has any meaning.
Yeah, and don’t forget to blame Bush for all the black on black crime as well.
I don’t respect this sh!t anymore, it gets old IMO.
Oh for the love of pete how long are they going to blame President Bush I think people are really getting sick of this crap.
ping.
Uh huh. “Cat had kittens - Bush’s fault.” This is actually pretty comical.
Well said. You can also apply that to the term ‘Neo-Con’
Obama has gone around the world telling anyone who would listen what a vile place America is and how racist it’s people are. Why would any country want to send it’s athletes to such a vile place as Obama describes. Then they have the audacity to try to slough the blame off on Republicans.
Amen brother!!! I can’t help but think the founders are looking down from on high and grinning. ;-)
This man should think maybe they heard about all the murders that Chicago has recently had and how they beat an innocent 16 year old boy with rail tracks.......or maybe they realize the corruption that could come out of Chicago having the Games. Or maybe just maybe Michelle didn’t give enough. President Bush has been out of office for almost a year it is time to look in the mirror democrat’s and see you are not perfect
I have never in all my years of being able to vote seen a group of people blame another President for everything like this one.
A great victory for the taxpayers (what few are left) in Chicago and Illinois.
Nah, had nothing to do with Barry making all this about himself....and how bad the US is....nothing at all.
The scenes from the chicago gang killing had nothing to do with it? Maybe they wanted a civilized town?
There is no Skull Bashing event in the olympics. So, no need to go to Chicago.
