    Default Obama Wins Nobel Peace Prize

    ...and, of course, the GOP spokesperson predictably attacked the award in a news conference today.
    What did your incumbant accomplish, Mr Steele?

    I beleive a moderator should at least PM me and explain why.
    Posts are seldom yanked, unless there is some serious name calling, obscenities, or if another poster "reports" the post.
    Perhaps you could repost. Also, there is another similar thread in the non Detroit section.

    Okay so I'll repost....
    Basicly what I said was, that I thought that the so called "Peace Prize" seems to have become no more than a way to puff up a political person for the gain of a political party, and that winning an election should not be the reason for winning this award.

    PS
    Hitler gave great speeches too....... most of them he wrote Himself.

    Its too bad that your post was deleted, however you act like the president was campaigning to get this award. The committee that gave this award to Obama could care less about the US Democratic or Republican party, they saw the potential in our president to bring about peace and felt him worthy of the honor regardless of actual accomplishments. Much of whats done in our society from winning a nobel peace prize to getting a multi-million dollar football contract is based on potential. Your comparison with Hitler was so out in left field, I guess thats what probably got your post deleted It was insulting

    Are you sure it was pulled off? Maybe you clicked something wrong, I can't imagine that the message of that repost would be removed.
