Maybe we should just leave the Republicans out of this. I mean, it is not due to any action of the GOP that Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize today, but solely due to his efforts to turn away from the path the GOP had taken. They are not on this path. They do not wish to be on this path, and yet we bring up their name. This is not about them. This is about our country, our President, the country and President they would deny. To hear their name is to pollute the air of peace that has developed. It disturbs the peace if you will. Let there be peace. The GOP has no intention, stated or implied, to bring about peace. Fine, they may remain in whatever misery they wish. Bringing them to this celebration only makes them more upset. So let's not. They have no intention of making this a Grand Old Party anyway.

Since I have not posted anything in so long, I had taken a brief vacation, I'm not yet back up to speed on smacking down the Right, but this one thing did occur to me which I think might be a jumping off point for others.

Obama's wost day?  When do you think that was? 

The Right suggests it was the day the Olympics declined to designate the USA as host of the 2016 games. 

One suggestion I have, which would never phase the Right, maybe it was last week when we lost eight soldiers in one heroic defense of an isolated post in Afghanistan.  Getting that news might have been his worst day yet. 

Any other suggestions?   With this country as screwed up as it is and the Right having abandoned any pretense of being part of a solution, maybe it just gets worse for Obama every day when he realizes we cannot stand disunited as we are and the closed fist he referred to in Egypt was actually our own American Taliban.  Anyway, what say ye?
