Democrats: Republicans have 'thrown in lot with terrorists' with Nobel criticism By: Charlie Spiering Online Community Manager beltway-confidential 10/09/09 12:36 PM EDT Democrats are fiercely defending Barack Obama's award of the Nobel peace prize and bristling at any Republican mockery of the international award for the president. “The Republican Party has thrown in its lot with the terrorists – the Taliban and Hamas this morning – in criticizing the President for receiving the Nobel Peace prize," DNC Communications Director Brad Woodhouse said in a statement. "Republicans cheered when America failed to land the Olympics and now they are criticizing the President of the United States for receiving the Nobel Peace prize – an award he did not seek but that is nonetheless an honor in which every American can take great pride – unless of course you are the Republican Party," the statement also read. "The 2009 version of the Republican Party has no boundaries, has no shame and has proved that they will put politics above patriotism at every turn. It's no wonder only 20 percent of Americans admit to being Republicans anymore – it's an embarrassing label to claim.” Elsewhwere, MSNBC host Joe Scarborough was called "an a--hole" by a senior White House official for mocking Obama's prize. washingtonexaminer.com
