Chicago's Olympic loss is Bush's fault. Really, people?

For the better part of 8 years, it seemed that every negative occurrence that happened in the world, and especially in the US, was Bush's fault. Global warming, hurricanes, drought, famine, 9/11 attacks, and pretty much everything else were all things heaped onto his shoulders as his fault. I thought that blame game would eventually dissipate, but I guess not. Now Jesse Jackson, members of the Chicago Olympic bid committee and members of B.O.'s crew all blamed Chicago's loss of the Olympic bid and anti-US sentiment because of Bush. It couldn't just be that Chicago is a crappy city with high rates of violence. And God forbid, maybe the rest of the world doesn't think as highly of B.O. as he thinks of himself. Not everyone in the world views him as the second coming.
