The Obama thread

[Skulhedface]

I live in the American South, and despite the fact that I disagree with 99% of it, I listen to talk radio. Therefore, I've heard quite a bit of "Obama doesn't deserve this" talk, in much less hospitable language. To his credit, Obama himself acknowledges that he doesn't deserve it (though he probably shouldn't have taken it...) and all things said, I'm glad this means that right wing nutjob radio hosts have started ballyhooing about Nobel credentials and stopped shoehorning Obama into Godwin's Law.

It's almost as if all the comparisons to Bush as Hitler were returned tenfold. The man hasn't even been in office a year yet, and I think I've heard Obama compared to Hitler more than I heard Bush receive similar comparison in eight years. With concessions to my geographical location, of course.
