As Americans, we should feel proud that President Obama has become the fourth U.S. President to win the Nobel Peace Prize. Instead, Republicans have decided to put politics first and use this moment in history to criticize our President and the Nobel Peace Prize to solicit political contributions. Unfortunately, the Republicans have decided once again to take the lowest road possible.

Below is a fundraising letter sent from the RNC Chairman moments after our President was given this prestigious award:

"I'm sure you've heard the news -- Barack Obama has been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. It's a stunning, if not truly surprising, indication of just how meaningless a once honorable and respected award has become.

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.

Even the normally fawning media have expressed shock at the clearly political and unmerited award. But the Democrats clearly see it differently, with DNC spokesman Brad Woodhouse stating "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."

Like most Americans, the DNC can't think of one achievement that the president has accomplished, so they resort to their predictable response and standard playbook of demonizing anyone who disagrees with them.

First they call Americans concerned over health care "rabid extremists" and "angry mobs." Now, when challenged to answer the question of what the president has accomplished, Democrats are lashing out calling Republicans terrorists. That type of political rhetoric is shameful.

The Democrats and their international leftist allies want America made subservient to the agenda of global redistribution and control. And truly patriotic Americans like you and our Republican Party are the only thing standing in their way.

Help our Party spread the word about the Obama Democrats' dangerous naivete and power grab. Please support GOP elected officials as they work to hold the Democrats accountable to the American people for their failed policies and irresponsible rhetoric by making a contribution of $25, $50, $100, $500 or $1,000 to the Republican National Committee today...

Sincerely,
Michael S. Steele
Chairman, Republican National Committee"

Send a letter to President Obama and congratulate him on winning the Nobel Peace Prize. Let him know you support his policies and tell him why it is so important that our country rise above the divisive rhetoric of the Republican Party:
