The United States loses their bid for the Olympics, the Right Wing Haters (RWH) cheer; the sitting President of the United States is awarded what is perhaps the most prestigious prize in the world, and the RWH go apoplectic.

Responses by the RWH on this thread should make it clear to all that they think they own America, that what they don’t understand or disagree with is by their personal definitions evil, a lie or an “elitist” trick. This trickle of bitterness cannot be taken seriously as part of any discussion.

Right on! The "RWH" don't realize that their Silent Majority has become the Vocal Minority. A lot of noise, to little effect.

hidaily:

LOL, half of the people in CHICAGO didn't want the Olympics, that's why they aren't coming here.

As your post is about the super bowl and the oscars, am I correct in assuming you'll be overjoyed when the winning super bowl team gives Obama a super bowl ring, and is awarded an Oscar for his acceptance speech?

You probably will, at that.

People don't have to hate Obama to question this award, many people in America still believe you ought to earn things, is all.

The Oscars regularly throw out lifetime achievement awards, ho hum. The Super Bowl creates a definitive winner each year. These are the kinds of choices RWH can handle, clear-cut, no nuance, no hope involved.

The RWH deal in personal responses, and this extends to whole countries. France has been on their hate list since it recognized the Iraq war as an unfolding tragedy. And now Norway is on their splat list. Ridiculous. Infantile.

So my point is aimed at the hard edge of the wingnuts, not those who think the Nobel Committee has failed to live up to past standards. But on those past standards, Bondsman, my favorite choice for the Peace Prize was the 1976 award to Betty Williams and Mairead Corrigan, co-founders of the Peace People who vainly sought reconciliation in northern Ireland. I like that “sought” stuff. Congratulations and good luck, President Obama.

Henry Kissinger, now there was a selection to furrow the brow.

"Right Wing Haters"? Wow, I am glad you made no attempt to be objective or anything. I mean, why try not to be what you are criticizing...

"Right Wing Haters"?

They do exist, you know. As they say: "If the foo shits, wear it."

You know, as they say, 'self-reinforcing delusions'... Do you have a reasoned opinion, or did you just come to call people names and pervert homilies with vulgar language?

The Doc is right. Sit down and reason together. Get to the bottom of the questions raised by the solid citizens who want to know where Barack Obama was REALLY born, who call him a racist who hates white people, who can’t make up their minds if President Obama is a communist or a fascist, who have actually demonstrated through research that he often uses a teleprompter when giving a speech, and have shown beyond a scintilla of a doubt that Barack Hussein Obama was once William Ayers’ room mate and that they read the same comic books.
