Have I woke up in LA LA land... The right and media are attacking

[Peacetrain]

the President over winning the Nobel Peace Prize.

They can't take 5 minutes, and be proud of an American President winning the award.

Lord have mercy.

What have we become?

[calimary]

1. Oh yeah, that's the "Country First" crowd.

:rofl:

[niceypoo]

16. Like I remind my Republican friends...

..when they ask, 'Why do you hate America?,' (everytime they start to lose a debate.)

The republicans only believe in two things:

1. The Republican Party
2. Money worship

[jimlup]

17. You actually have republican friends??

OK... perhaps that's a bit harsh. They really are deeply ignorant and mislead. They have no real concept of what "America" actually is.

[HopeOverFear]

2. Well see, it's all a conspiracy, see? Yeah, see...

Fox News is in on it. They're PRETENDING to be against Obama so that support for him will actually increase out of sympathy, therefore accomplishing....something.

:eyes:

3. Wait until you see DU.

[graywarrior]

5. I dropped in for a few mintues here and can't believe the shit that's transpiring.

I post here less and less these days.

[Hekate]

9. C'mon over to the Party Thread in GD. I'm series--we need some cheering up.

:toast: :party: :patriot: :toast: :party: :patriot:

10. I'm right there with you.

Going on DU, it feels more and more like Obama deserved the Nobel Prize just for dealing DUers. No prize could possibly exist for what he goes through with the right wing.

[cliffordu]

11. Don't let the bastards win. I'll back you and the duck till I quack. I mean crack.

:hi:

[DevonRex]

4. So are the usual suspects on DU. I can't overstate the disgust I have for them.

[RetroLounge]

19. "the usual suspects on DU"

:rofl:

Oh, please put me on your list too...

6. I have HUGE issues with Obama and LGBT issues, but this Prize is a very good thing for America.

[Hekate]

7. It's so sucky around DU this morning that I started a Party Thread in GD. You're invited

Anyone with a good attitude can come. Anyone who needs cheering up can come. Just for one day, let's CELEBRATE!

:toast: :party: :patriot: :toast: :party: :patriot: :toast: :party: :patriot:

8. Several DUers are doing the same, if you can believe it.

My ignore list is gonna be noticeably longer by the end of the day.

[Hekate]

12. Kestrel, we need you in the Party Thread!

Be there or be square. :hi:

:toast: :party: :patriot:

13. Thank goodness there's a "rest of the world" who can speak positively

of President Obama's award. They are being positive, aren't they?

[Thrill]

14. Its because it throws water on their meme of last week that not getting the Olympics

diminished Obama in the world. It slaps it down

[krispos42]

15. After cheering that America lost the 2016 Olympics... what did you expect?

I can honestly say that if Bush had personally pled to the IOC for, say, the 2012 Summer Games for Dallas/Fort Worth or Houston to host and gotten them, I would have been happy for my country and happy that Bush pulled it off.

[Honeycombe8]

18. Yeah, it's insane. Like attacking the Prez for trying to get the Olympics to come here! Oh, wait.

They DID attack him for that, TOO!

It's insane, I tell ya.

It's not worth involving them in discussions or even considering them any longer. They've made it clear. They are out to get him, even if it means he gets assassinated. They want him gone (preferably in a legal way, but they'll take any way).

That matters more to them than the country, the citizens, even taxes!
