Republican National Chairman Michael Steele issued a grudging statement this morning in response to the president’s being awarded the Nobel peace prize.

“The real question Americans are asking is, ‘What has President Obama actually accomplished?’ It is unfortunate that the president’s star power has outshined tireless advocates who have made real achievements working towards peace and human rights,” Steele said.

“One thing is certain – President Obama won’t be receiving any awards from Americans for job creation, fiscal responsibility, or backing up rhetoric with concrete action,” added the former Maryland lieutenant governor.

His attitude is a very good example of the sad state of US politics. I think it’s time to come together and be US Citizens instead of making everything a partisan fight.

Whatever happened to being proud to be in the USA?
