I'd like to know what he did to earn these. He was in office for 10 days when nominated.

What I don't understand is this,, all that hateing on Obama for something there is NO WAY he could have controlled. It's like some folks are mad at him for winning the damn thing... To me, that's just idiotic..

If folks are going to be angry,, fine, but he shouldn't be the target of that anger this time,, Put it where it belongs,, on the commitee that chose him.

I don't hate Obama for winning it.. but seriously, it's like giving the Heisman to a freshman with 15 career rushes and 3 receptions...

You will pleased to know that even Obama himself just said he doesn't deserve this prize.. in fact, I was just watching him on TV.. damnest thing, he looks as puzzled by it as anyone. In fact, I dare say he looks down right uncomfortable about it..

I'm completely sure he's aware he hasn't earned this award..

Would you please point out to me where someone has hated on Obama because he was given this award?

---

Will you please look up the thread a little and see where I clarified my statement.

The President should politely decline.

The whole thing reeks to high hell, and it has gotta be the most blatantly crooked award of this type ever.

What's the difference DC.. he's damned if he does and damned if he doesn't. Why embarrase himself and his country by declining it

Just like Gore and his "award", there's just no way that you get it without behind the scenes campaigning for it, and if there is one thing O is good at, it is campaigning.

Sheesh, Arafat, Gore, Obama? That award is a frickin' joke anymore. To mention these bozos in the same breath as Mother Theresa, Martin Luther King, Anwar Sadat, etc. is an abomination. At least Carter did something that meets the criteria.

I find it interesting that the radical rw of the GOP has become so "ANTI AMERICAN".

Last week radical rwers cheered when the United States of America lost the Olympic bid to host the 2016 games...

This week, radical rwers can't allow themselves to be proud of the fact that an American won the Nobel Peace Prize.

I doubt that the radical rwers will admit the reason they cannot allow themselves to be proud of an American winning the Nobel Peace Prize...but most "Americans" know what is behind this radical rw "anti-Americanism".

Im getting sick of this right vs left stuff. When one does something wrong just because they have a D or an R next to their name, they will say anything to back them up. They will also call you unpatriotic is disagreeing. Then when someone on the other side does something half as bad, they will do anything to bring them down. I cant believe that people dont realize how close the Ds and the Rs are behind closed doors when they aint arguing in front of the cameras. You will see the biggest debate on C-span then they are hugging and shaking hands afterwards. Its all too fake, just to look good for what they think the voters back home want.

I wish when something goes down, the article wont put what political ties the person has so people tell tell it like they see it and not back them or bash them based on their political ties.

What cracks me up is when someone says they usually vote democrat and they still think its messed up but they continue to bash democrats. Like when people say, "Im Democrat but there is no way Im voting for Obama" Too much agenda

Im against the war with Iraq but I think Bush took way to long to go after Bin Laden after 9/11. He gave them a month head start for the Taliban to hand him over Yeah, lets give a millionare hero in a 3rd world country a month head start. I didnt think they wanted to capture him when it took that long and guess what, they still didnt catch him.

Rather than for anything that Obama did, I see it as a final jab to G.W. Bush and a repulsion of his world leadership.

I've historically voted Dem. and I'm a registered Dem. Doesn't mean I have to vote for, or even like, the Democratic candidate. No agenda for me other than I didn't like the guy shortly after the campaign started.

Oh give me a break ... you spent the first paragraph lecturing people about making this a R vs D issue ... and then you spent the last three critcizing Bush in a thread that has nothing to do with him?

Quote:

---

Agree...I just don't get how it's an "agenda" to some.

---

I don't get that either,, for me the agenda comes into play when one feels as if anything the Democrats do is good and all that Republicans do is bad.. or the reverse...

How anyone can tow one parties line is beyond me.. neither one has all the answers... hell, they all prove that when then open thier mouths...

How about being patriotic that our President won the Nobel prize?

Go America anyone?

Actually, a look outside of the US shows an entirely new outlook over our country. Now this could simply because of the anyone but Bush theory, however Obama does have that addictive personality. Did he earn it? Not yet really, but he definitely holds that potential to win it. However the world does seem a lot happier after he took over, just not going to happen in America and it never will. This is simply because of the party lines and each side holding to their guns and only supporting their views. But the rest of the world sure is loving Obama and as such, he got the positive press that won him the vote.

It is a complete joke. Pure and simple - it is an outright slap in the face to the people that TRULY earned it.

Even worse ... IMO, it is a blatant attempt - by the European intellectual, liberal elite - to manipulate American policy re: a projected troop surge in Afghanistan and the subsequent offensive that the surge would bring. Obama now finds himself trapped between the recommendations of his generals and the continued good will of the princes of Old Europe.
