Nobel Prize = True, but not really his fault. Still, shouldn't the Nobel Prize have gone to the USA as a whole if at all? The whole notion is that we got over our racism and elected a black President after all. But that's all kinda Meh. "You accepted the Nobel Prize!!" ain't gonna win the election.
Slamming health care through despite the majority of Americans being against it -- which is by definition extremely arrogant. "You don't know what is best for you. I do." = True
Hating on the Supreme Court = True, that was a blunder for sure.
Joe Biden = True. The guy is seriously just awful. He's like an elderly Dan Quayle.
The Bin Ladin part = Partisan nonsense. We CAN'T know what anyone else would have done. Obama acted and he got that one right.

The finish? Demonizing and very biased, but pretty much exactly what you'd expect from a campaign ad. Ain't like the Dems are playing nice either. How many times do we hear the word "cult" tossed around these days? That's more taboo IMHO. And though nobody important in their party will say that word, but I think somebody is whipping up some good ol' fashioned bigotry in the Democrat ranks. This ad did not attack Obama because he's black or because of what church he goes to. Conclusion: Highly biased but all fair game.
I am not sure why he was even given the nobel peace prize, I was confused by this decision, I mean being involved in 2 wars and all.

I am sure many of us are wondering why he received the Nobel prize, but as for the wars, do you have any idea when he recieved the peace prize? It was shortly after his election, he certainly would not have had much time to take any action. You don't just walk into a job and change everything overnight.
