Wow, this is off-message.
The DNC:
“The Republican Party has thrown in its lot with the terrorists – the Taliban and Hamas this morning – in criticizing the President for receiving the Nobel Peace prize,” DNC communications director Brad Woodhouse told POLITICO.
Meet some terrorist lot thrower-inners.
there are simply no meaningful “peace” accomplishment in his record — at least not yet — and there’s plenty of the opposite. That’s what makes this Prize so painfully and self-evidently ludicrous.
I like Barack Obama as much as the next liberal, but this is a farce. He’s done nothing to deserve the prize.
How long till the Nobel Committee just gives up the ghost and names “you!” the winner of the peace prize?
Lot of people discovered this morning that they’ve suddenly been made Republicans now, is all I’m saying.

Government cannot be the solution when government is the problem.

Wait, what are these "terrorists" Brad Woodhouse speaks of?

“I just miss — I miss being anonymous.” — Barack Obama
I fully sympathize, Mr. President. I miss you being anonymous too.
If we could poll the Taliban, do you think they would prefer BHO or GBW?

I’m a banned Democrat who came here to promote the idea that Republicans are racists for disliking Barack Obama.
Going with Ezra Klein

You can apply for your own Nobel prize and buy some magazines while you’re at it and wait for the Prize Patrol. It would carry the same amount of prestige it has today… Zilch.
Isn't this the same precedent who. . .
