You know, I was never a big fan of Dubya, but seriously – how about giving the Bush Derangement Syndrome a slight rest, folks?

Some Chicago officials say anti-American resentment likely played arole in Chicago’s Olympic bid dying in the first round Friday.

President Obama could not undo in one year the resentment againstAmerica that President Bush and others built up for years, they said.

Hmmm.  Couldn’t have anything to do with the Magic Marxist calling America “arrogant” among other things all over the world stage, could it? Or the fact that maybe it’s simply another nation’s turn to host the event, which by the way would only create temporary, low paying jobs, and would cost millions in the end.

And by the way, since when is Jesse Jackson a Chicago “official?”


“There must be” resentment against America, the Rev. Jesse Jacksonsaid, near the stage where he had hoped to give a victory speech inDaley Center Plaza. “The way we [refused to sign] the Kyoto Treaty, wemisled the world into Iraq. The world had a very bad taste in its mouthabout us. But there was such a turnaround after last November. Theworld now feels better about America and about Americans. That’s why Ithought the president’s going was the deal-maker.”

And since when is that hypocritical, philandering, anti-Semitic asshole in any way relevant?
