Sen. James Inhofe (R-OK) said today that President Obama got the Nobel Peace Prize as a reward for making the country weaker and appealing to the global community.
From the Oklahoman:
[Inhofe said Obama] got the prize for “de-emphasizing defense in favor of multi-national cooperation,” an approach with which Inhofe disagrees.
Inhofe worries that the prize could go to Obama’s head, and lead him to “de-emphasize defense” even more, especially on the battlefields of Afghanistan.
“If he genuinely was on the fence, and now he gets this prize, it could lead him to reject the feelings of the military commanders” calling for more troops, Inhofe said.
