Blame the nearest white guy. Or whites, or Christians, or heterosexuals, or conservatives, the target of choice – men.

Don’t blame inner city black kids whose violence is making the round on Youtube, but is ignored by the empty-suit-in-chief as a “teachable moment”.

There is a race problem in the US, and we just saw where it’s being taught, formented, and advocated.

Physician – heal thyself.

I wonder if Chicago would have won would they have been so eager to give Bush the credit…sure!

These protest for profit types who reach into a cuspidor to find means to exploit are an insult to the work and sacrifices of Dr King, Medger Evers, James Meredith and Shirley Chisholm among many who are the true role models.

This isn’t Bush’s fault. He left the dance nine months ago. What happens now is all on Obama and if he can’t show respect, he doesn’t deserve respect.

President Bush lost it? really? Jesse Jaskson is about as ignorant as they come. His IQ must be lower than his shoe size. I recommend that he not go on the show “Am I smarter than a 5th grader?” For obvious reasons. Let me remind all the losers in Chicago that this city was chosen as a finalist while President Bush was in office. If it was resentment, why would the IOC select an American city for a finalist while President Bush was in office? Using a teleprompter to sway votes does not cut it. Also, trying asking the President and First Lady to stop using the first person singular pronoun in their speeches. The First lady 34 times in 16 paragraph speech and the President 23 times in a 13 paragraph speech.

Why didn’t we even have a clue as to where we stood in the vote? President Obama should have known that we weren’t in the running. I think he thought he had the clout to get the votes…ah duh!! There is a problem with the Obama administration and their math. It doesn’t add up…we are lucky if they have an idea of what the numbers are much less what they total too! I think it’s that CHICAGO way! Back to basics!!

the u.s. has hosted the olympics more times than it deserves in the past. it was time to let another country and another continent host the olympics. south america has never hosted it. this is what is really behind the rio choice.

i think mayor daly, pat ryan,our olympic delegation and president obama did a great job of presentation. we cannot correct our past 8 years of disrespect towards the world and expect it to turn around in 9 months.

and we lost 8 more of our brave troops, the ones that keep our Freedom so obama can make a fool out of all of us. Think about keeping them alive while you are eating kobe steaks on a plane. I respect the office but that is not a man there.
