Shock at Obama's Nobel Angers Daily Kos: 'America Oblivious To Its Reign of Terror'

Unsurprisingly, Obama's Nobel Prize sparked the daily Two Minutes Hate for Bush at the Daily Kos. It's apparently only been nine months since we were a terrorist nation, according to blogger Crispian Day. He thought it was a joke that anyone would question that Obama was fully deserving of the honor:

In just eight months President Obama has taken us from looking like crazed, bible distributing (in Arabic no less) war mongering, macho, family killing raping and torturing nation that we WERE into a nation of peace seeking. Are you kidding me?

You think that's easy... try getting two people who don't like each other to change... just two. He has turned the outlook of the whole world from one where everyone was worried about WW3 or WMD or Nukes, or mounting terrorism into a world of hope....

There are people who are calling for him to turn it down. I think President Obama will say that this is where we all need to start and he will tell us where we should go from here. This gives him so much clout on the world stage. How can you turn down MORE clout to get more PEACE accomplished? And hopefully it will help with the world's crappiest Senate.

It's still the "world's crappiest Senate," stuffed with Democrats. Wow. In a post titled "Nobel Shock shows America oblivious to its reign of terror," the Kosmonaut with the byline "Nashville Fan" said we barely avoided World War III by electing McCain:

Those folks cheering in the streets around the world weren't cheering for the "first black President". They were cheering for an end of tyranny and oppression from the "shining beacon on the hill".

We take all these things for granted, because the bombs don't blow up here, the carnage doesn't fill the streets here, President Bush said it plainly - we fight them over THERE so we don't have to fight them here.

So we Americans are oblvious and shocked at the impact our President has had on the lives of billions of people around the world, who once again can view the stars and stripes as a sign of a friend, and not a foe.

President Obama EARNED the Nobel prize by ignoring the "conventional wisdom" that said negotiating is weak, admitting error is weak, working in alliances is weak and finally recognizing that ALL PEOPLE are precious in God's sight, not just Americans.

With posts like these, can leftists really pretend that it's the conservatives who hate America right now? Or could they understand the idea that there's a difference between loving your country and loving your current president?

Just wait...

Just wait until next November....lol.

The Daily Kos is an infection. Newsbusters is the antibiotic.

Awake the sleeping giant...and that giant is WE THE PEOPLE!

Our Nation wont

make it until next November.  by then the unemployment rate will be 39.7%, run on basic necessities will cause massive riots in all major cities.  Only the States invoking the 10th and succeed form the Union will be semi-safe.

Mad Max syndrome will infect the masses.

Obama will be the last president of the United States of America and like Lincoln it will be during his term a civil war will break out, and just as then it will be the Liberals who start it.

Your post describes how things were during Carter's presidency and we survived that, didn't we?

We're still dealing with the consequences of "that". The arab middle east is about to go a nuclear, remember?

It's only 30 years later. To say "we survived carter" is a little premature.

Interesting that the kos kids would feel this way.

 

 

'America Oblivious To Its Reign of Terror'

The only folks we terrorize is communist dictators and other despots that have a propensity to murder millions of their own citizens.

WHY does d-kos find wholesale murder so wonderful and the possibility of the United States preventing those murders so distasteful?

Then I assume...

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad didn't get the memo from Copenhagen then.  Someone forgot to tell him that the United States and Iran are Best Buddies now that Obama is President.

Perhaps we should extend Obamacare to the Iranians as a gesture of our good will?

He has turned the outlook

He has turned the outlook of the whole world from one where everyone
was worried about WW3 or WMD or Nukes, or mounting terrorism into a
world of hope....

The whole world?????

No one is worried about WMD or Nukes any more??

No one is worried about terrorism?

To say that is to imply that the US was the biggest threat of nuclear war and terrorism, and not that Obama is President that threat is gone!

That claim is positively bizarre!

The President of the US has zero power to make others stop anything.  Prime example: Iran.  Have they stopped working toward a nuclear bomb?  Do they intend to?So how has Obama improved that situation?  

What B as in B, S as in S! 
These guys are not drinking Kool-Aid; they are dropping acid and smoking crack!

 

 

What? Me worry?

MB, now the only ones who have to worry about WMD or WW3 or lose hope are Americans.  Here's a prayer that we can elect a Congress that will counter Obama next year (or better yet impeach him and toss him out on his ear), and a new President in 2012 who lives in the real world.

We take all these things

We take all these things for granted, because the bombs don't blow up
here, the carnage doesn't fill the streets here, President Bush said it
plainly - we fight them over THERE so we don't have to fight them here.

And if the terrorists stopped blowing things up and killing people we would stop fighting them over THERE as well.  What is is about these left wingnuts that only sees the culpability of the United States in every situation.  Do they honestly believe that we will avoid WWIII with BHO in charge?  If anything, the propect of war is increased with Iran, Korea, and China building their nuclear and Missile capability.  I pray that we can surrive until the 2010 elections. 

You don't understand, Tom

You don't understand, Tom.

Our fighting them anywhere, in response to their attacks, only "perpetuates the cycle of violence."

If we just leave them alone, the cycle will stop.

If a few of these libs started getting blown up, we would here a differnt tune out of em. Not really fair all those victims should have to suffer for the libs apathy

I am sorry to say

I am sorry to say that a large portion of our population actually believe all this nonsense from the KOS Crowd. It is the changing culture. If and only if we can some how return to being a more responsible people as a whole can we ever get rid of this immature drivel that passes for opinion from the Ignorant Left.

I say the Ignorant Left for a reason. The movers and shakers in the leftist movement are not ignorant but depend on the ignorance of thier followers. It is easy to do when your entire platform is based on emotional appeals.

We on the right are not innocent either as the strickly emotional appeal has been used quite well by the Republicans as well. Ignorance is the enemy and I am afraid we have a very Ignorant populace. Not all to be sure and probably not the majority but darn close. There are many reasons for this but how many times have you had a discussion with someone and all they can argue are talking points and don't have any original thoughts of thier own.

CRASH course on the way...

It looks like the ignorant are about to get a CRASH course in life.  Since the early '90s, as a country we've been drifting, and many have lost touch with reality.  Don't get caught up in the noise, when push comes to shove everyone will figure out where they stand.

Noise

Speaking of getting caught up in the noise...the TTC was officially killed over the past week for the one reason I personally thought would kill it...good ol' right-of-way concerns.

Leftwing bloggers are America-hating swine!

I've always wondered if these leftards really believe what they write?  The little Fidel writes "crazed, bible distributing (in Arabic no less) war mongering, macho, family killing raping and torturing nation.."  Change the Bible to Koran and I'd say that perfectly sums up our enemies!

Why do they hate America so and embrace brutal regimes and cultures?  Maybe they were dropped on their heads when they were babies?

anyone else notice

That through eight years of Bush the world apparently hated us, now they love us again, but the only ones I hear singing praises are Castro, Ghadafi and Chavez, is there something a little backwards here or is it just me?

realpatriot, shhhhhh!

Your killing the left's buzz after Friday's announcement.

KOOKY KOS KIDS...

 My guess is that the vast majority of Kos Kids have real problems with our constitution & believe it does not meet our current needs. They would be down with a 2nd Bill of Rights", & a total top down socialist system that completely supresses the free market. If I am right, & I know I'm not totally wrong, they are unAmerican. Because the ideals they believe in are unAmerican by definition.

. . . . ''unbelievable'' but I know the Left much better than that.

I was listening to someone on the radio this morning whilst I was doing dishes.  I didn't recognize the voice but I was agreeing like 'all get out' with him.  He was talking about how the Left ''all of a sudden'' became not only patriotic but the judges of what patriotism is.  He was talking about the (what the Left calls) the ''Chicago Olympics'' and sportsmanship in general throughout the PC takeover of what sports ''should be'' over the past few decades.

It turns out that it was Glenn Beck.  I am a new fan all over again.

This is finally the kind of truthfulness you get when you strip away all the political safeguards from a liberal. The ones in Washington couch this in more conservative language, knowing they can't get away wih actually saying this. But. this is how many of them truly feel and think. This is actually helpful.

No citizen's right to life, liberty, pursuit of happiness, or property is safe as long as Obama is President of the United States.

To the Koz Kooks and the rest of the Country

a very smart man once said "Elections have conse-Obama-quences." 

That photo on the header across the top.

Is that a pic of Crispian Day?(wth kind of name is Crispian? Sounds like maybe he is Hobbit or at least a troll). I can not read those inane posts on the Kos cause I would probably snap and be up on the roof with the old Mauser. I was just wondering if that was him. Is he the Kos's official "Alpha" male cause he looks positively limp wristed. I can practically hear the lisp when I read the short clip of his blog. I am betting this boy has mauve (that is that really crappy looking pink for all the guys) bedsheets and track lighting.I had to laugh when I read he "snarled". I would have paid money to see that.

Don't worry, Kos kommie, once Obama finishes destroying...

...America as a world power and economic leader (and he is very close to doing just that) you are going to see a "Reign of Terror" that neither you, nor your children, are going to believe.

Dave,  The Kossacks

Dave, 

The Kossacks won't see a thing until they open their eyes.  If they were paying attention they'd already see what these third world thugs Obama is empowering have done in the very recent past, and it's not pretty.  Once these thugs are completely freed of the restraint the United States represented, they will do as they please without fear and with impunity.
