http://video.msnbc.msn.com/martin-bashir/41894607#52985870 When I first heard this, I said to myself, how on earth could any human being with a slither of sense vote for a republican. Steve Stockman takes a foreign policy/national security issue and mocks the whole Syrian decision to strike or not strike, basing his decision solely on whether Obama hands over his Nobel peace prize or not. This will decide whether he gives a yes or no vote. And these are the people who are supposed to represent us? So, is this what it has come down to with the republican party; a bunch of racist, KKK, hate mongering, obstructionist, do nothing but self-serving agendas for themselves party, while the rest of the country and our well being can go to (*)(*)(*)(*), while they hate Obama at our expense? This party has to go.
You're just as much of a partisan hack as koolaid drinking rightwingers. How do you reconcile this fact?
I reconcile by producing facts. The fact Steve Stockman said what he said about Obama turning over his Nobel Peace Prize in return for a yes vote on bombing Syria is a fact. Would you care to prove this partisan statement as being false? I didn't think so.
1. Obama has authorized drone strikes in Pakistan, Libya, Yemen , and Somalia. All countries that we where not war with. So why shouldn't Obama hand his Nobel peace prize back? 2. Even though Obama used the Bush timeline to withdraw troops from Iraq, only after having the Iraqi parliament reject a deal for extending US troops stay after the 2010 withdrawal date. Why has Obama kept his nobel peace prize? 3. Obama authorized a troop surge in Afghanistan after ten years of war. why has Obama kept his Nobel peace prize? 4. Obama authorized force against Libya to overthrow the Kadafi regime even thought Libya posed no threat to US security. Not only did he help attack another sovereign nation, he helped hand half the country over to wackjob jihadist. The same jihadist that turned around and killed Ambassador Stevens and three other Americans. why again does Obama still have his peace prize? 5. Now Obama has made a bumbling attempt to attack Syria. because of there use of chemical attacks on civilians. Nevermind the fact that over a hundred thousand people have already been killed and another two million displaced. So why does Obama still have his peace prize? Sit down son, you've been schooled once again.
Well, they did give Henry Kissinger the Nobel Peace Prize as well, so it shouldn't be surprising that Obama would get it. It sadly is kind of a joke compared to the other Nobel Prizes.
BWK, do you know anyone, especially a PUB that is a member of the KKK. Mind you, I am not saying there are none, just asking if you know any?
Yes! I do know some. I am from the deep south. And while most of the organized groups are gone as far as I know, I personally know some old members to this day. And be mindful of one thing. And don't forget this. The hate in the deep south is alive and well. I can promise you that. It's just that they are very discreet about it now, unless you are in an area of all white, old men. The hate is still very real.
Actually it does, try to keep up. After every action Obama has committed, why should he keep his peace prize. And, I'm sure you don't have the guts to answer that.
So, you are too much of a coward to answer my question about whether Steve Stockman said what he said about handing over the peace prize in return for giving a yes vote to bomb Syria. "After every action Obama has committed". What actions are those?
This thread is not about Obama son. So stop hijacking it. It is about Steve Stockman and his decision to bomb or not bomb based on whether someone gives up a peace prize. In other words he's letting his foreign policy decisions be dictated on a personal hate for someone. Which has nothing to do with foreign policy. People could live or die based on a yes or no answer by Stockman. But that doesn't matter to him. As long as Obama gives up the peace prize, he doesn't care whether they bomb or not. This is what the thread is about. Not whether Obama has a peace prize or not.
Turns out that someone is Obama, so this thread is about that someone, Obama, having a prize that is supposed to mean you don't foment war, but Obama has been more of a warmonger than most Presidents. Stockman's request seems incredibly reasonable considering how incongruent it is to have a warmonger President with a Nobel peace prize.
