Re: Obama wins Nobel Peace Prize
Seems like, once again, extremist Muslims and the conservative right of America have found common cause.

Michelle Malkin:
"It's the final nail in the Nobel Peace Prize Committee's coffin."

Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid:
"We condemn the institute's awarding him the peace prize. We condemn this year's peace prize as unjust."

Oh, get an island!!

Yeah, I think you could well be right to call it like that. I honestly don't see how Obama can possibly outlive (in a political sense) the vehemence of his critics which, a mere 8 months into his presidency, just seems astonishing to me. You're right when you say he's being marketed as a failure. Sadly the impression I get is that it's working.

Can't help wondering how much of all this was seeded 12-18 months ago by the Clintons. We forget just how vicious that campaign was, and the amount of fear and nonsense that was doing the rounds, even before the guy got to flub his presidential oath. That Bill Clinton must be sucking lemons today following the Nobel announcement is at least a reason to smile.
