Students say Obama deserves Peace Prize, but can't say why

By Katherine Timpf

Students at the University of California (USC) said that President Obama definitely still deserves his Nobel Peace Prize — but had a hard time explaining why.

“I just feel like in general being a good guy, it’s just creating a lot more peace and like, mellow,” said one student, adding, “I love Obama, and I love everything he is doing. I just feel like everyone is so hard on him and it’s only his second year.”

When asked what the difference was between President Obama and President Bush invading the Middle East, that student’s answer was simple:

“Bush, I just didn’t like him,” she said. “I just don’t.”

Other students explained that some of his initiatives — such as his economic policies and Obamacare — made Americans happy and so led to world peace.

One student said he thought Obama had strengthened diplomatic ties “with countries” but could not explain what he meant.

“Just good-natured intentions,” he said.

I consider Pete Wilson—a pro-abort and a big taxer—to be a liberal, but he was better than all who followed.

How do people with no brains become College Students?

I was one. Actually Took a class called Francophone Lesbian Novelists of the Caribbean. No kidding. Thought I could meet girls there: brainless on many, many levels.

Obama deserves that Putin wins the Nobel Peace Prize. After all between the two Putin is the only one who ever stopped a war.

This is supposed to be satire but given the idiocy of Obama supporters, it could be a documentary:

Francophone Lesbian Novelists of the Caribbean.

One might well consider delving into their seminal works.
