President Barack Obama wins Nobel Peace Prize

[tigerbob]

LOL. I heard that he was only in office two months when the voting was closed! This removes all credibility from the Nobel Prize. Imagine that..... Obamacorn the socialist idiot elected by idiots wins the Nobel Prize. Can't quit laughing.

He's not an idiot. And a lot of pretty intelligent people voted for him. You can't dismiss this award on that basis. It's facile.

right an American wins the Nobel Prize and the right hates it. An American city loses the 2016 Olympiad and the right rejoices.

Why does the Right insist they are pro-American? They ridicule American victories and rejoice over American defeat.

I don't find anything funny about that. It's just sad.

Well the peace prize should go to people that actually promote peace, and the Olympics would have been a colossal waste of taxpayer money.

Substitute the word "Obama's" for "American". That may help you.

Feb. 1, 2009 the voting closed. So more like two weeks.

Just checking, are you joking and you realize that Feb 1 was the last day for nominations or did you think the voting actually took place on 2/1?

Truly it would be a joke if the voting took place on the final day of nominations and only 12 days after his inauguration.

My mistake. I meant nominations.

 

[Polk]

Really? Funny... I thought Arafat winning was way dumber than this.

For all of Arafat's faults, I think his win was more justified, considering the context in which it occurred.

I'd disagree wholeheartedly.

Reasonable people can have differences of opinion.

From: Nobel Prizes - MSN Encarta
Nominations of candidates are due on February 1 of the award year. Then, Nobel committee members and consultants meet several times to evaluate the qualifications of the nominees. The various committees cast their final votes in October and immediately notify the laureates that they have won.


(Can't stop laughing )

Would that brand of reflexive opposition really be any better?

Not that I know of but surely it was not on the same day as the end of nominations. Surely the committee would have to have a chance to review the accomplishments of all nominees. Of course, the ultimate winner's accomplishments are debatable at this time, so maybe it is just a popularity contest.

At least that is how it appears.

Edited with appreciation to Coyote.

Thought so and just wanted to clarify it.

At least Arafat had an Actual Record of being Anti-Jew...

Barry hasn't Established that yet, but I am Sure he will, as is Nobel.



peace...

I see many voices of reason here from both sides. Majority here agrees that Obama did not earn this one. At least not yet.

However, there are some so desperate for any Obama's victory that they will even take an empty one at this point.

Pathetic.

Blindly supporting or ridiculing someone is always silly.

I am Surprised by some on the Left like David Sarota...

He was saying this Morning on the Err Amerika Affiliate out of the (p)eople's (r)epublic of Boulder that it was Shameless for Nobel to do it...

And Sarota is to the Left of Stalin...

....and there are some so desperate for an Obama failure that they will do anything, whether it's ridicule a Peace Prize he did not ask for or cheer the fact that Chicago did not get the Olympics to proclaim a failure for Obama.

Pathetic, indeed.

There are People on the Left who Believe this was Patently Unwaranted or Earned...

What are they?...

Sometimes People are just Observing the Obvious and NOT being Partisan.

Yup....like those celebrating Chicago's loss....not partisan at all.....

Chaos damn it!

Unfucking believable. We can now officially write that award off as absolutely MEANINGLESS. And we can assume the committee is full of idiots, retards and political hacks..

It was meaningless after Carter got it, then Gore got it, now Obama (the 3 stooges!! ha!)...oh ya, 4 stooges, it was given to the terrorist Arrafat too! Nice company he's in!
