If Barack Obama won the Pillsbury Bake-Off, would Limbaugh and the rest of the Repugs condemn ...

flour, butter, and milk?

Oh, and that way he giggles whenever he gets poked in the belly? Gay.

there would be a spate of bizarre deaths as rightwingers everywhere killed themselves while breathing only nitrogen and helium because OXYGEN IS FOR SOCIALIST LIBERAL COMMUNIST FASCISTS.

They'd throw their own mothers under the bus if they thought it made their empty case against Obama any stronger.

Would they condemn Apple fucking pie?!?

;)

even though he was too humble to enter.

Obama actually has accomplished quite a few things internationally this year. They've just been ignored by the "liberal" media. Choosing an alternative for missile defense in Europe is remarkable, as is a renewed NATO and unified position on Iran.

President Obama's administration has in only ten months:

1. Followed through on plans to gradually withdraw from Iraq contrary to candidate McCain's promises.
2. Reached out to Muslim nations offering to treat them with respect, rather than lecturing down to them about American values and democracy.
3. Improved relations with Russia by dropping plans for a missle defense on Russia's border, moved towards nuclear arms reduction talks, and got Russia's temtative cooperation on Iran.
4. Initiated face to face discussions with Iran as he promised.
5. Managed to reverse North Korea's escalation of rhetoric.
6. Chaired the U.N. Security counsel, and passed a resolution committing to reduce nuclear arms following up on an earlier speech in Europe on the issue.
7. Improved the standing and power of the United Nations by committing to multi-lateralism.
8. Put pressure on Isreal to halt expansion of settlements, rather than just blindly supporting them against the Palestinians.
9. Convinced Pakistan to take more aggresive action against jihadist militants that got within 60 miles of Pakistan's capital, which placed Pakistan's nuclear arsenal at severe risk.
10. Reversing eight years of climate change denial from the Bush administration, and has supported efforts to pass a cap and trade bill through Congress.
11. Ratcheted down the rhetoric on Iran, and tried to engage them early on in his Presidency, which signiciantly helped opposition elements in the Iran election, since the U.S. was not playing the traditional role of the Great Satan.

Conservatives have opposed all of the above moves and some so-called liberals have minimized each of them. Thus, here we sit, with most right wingers, and some "liberals" opposing the award of the Nobel Peace price to President Obama.

The fact of the matter is that the President has signicantly changed the arc of world diplomacy, and based on his actions this past year, I think the award is well deserved. The shock and surprise over the President's award says more about us and our media, then it says about President Obama, because other countries apparently have a much different perspective. Afterall, remember the world leader saying that he can't understand why President Obama is being compared to Hitler for trying to expand health care.

Can President Obama do more? Of course. But does that mean he has done nothing? The answer is no.

Glad somebody got to it! Thanks so much for posting it for me.

The remaining republicans are the sorriest bunch of people I have ever seen. They don't even like each other.

Republicans would accuse him of trying to crash the gold market. And if those bricks had to be wiped off; that would be a giveaway to the rag-pickers' union which would somehow involve ACORN.

You know what would happen: Pigboy would start calling him Uncle Jemima.
