It's just the latest non-issue. Some people are so pathetic that they're incapable of acknowledging anything positive about President Obama; the
psychiatrists will have to find a label for the syndrome. The leader of the GOP is off to judge a pork chop pageant while the leader of the Democratic Party
just received one of the highest honors on the planet...no wonder there's so
much wailing and gnashing of teeth among right wingers.

The awarding of shoes is a time honored tradition and has great significance in Iraqi culture. This award was totally unexpected by the Bush Administration and showcased the Iraqi's appreciation for all he had done for them in the previous six years. I'm sure he left that ceremony deeply moved and will remember that moment as the culmination of his foreign policy.

I say congrats to President Obama for winning the Nobel Peace Prize. I hope he has the character to live up to the award. So far the jury is out on that point.

It's good you can hear us. Liberals may very well join us in the not too distant future, when they look around and can't find the America they knew ...and wonder "what happened?"

What America is that? The "Norman Rockwell" white America where everyone knew their "place"?

It's not a dream. It's a nightmare on the horizon.

Bush needed to win the "Boob of the Year Award". I see him Presidential Library was finished. Its the size of a shoe box.
