It's All Over But The Crying

Isn't it time to ask that it be returned?
"The 2009 Nobel Peace Prize was awarded to United States President Barack Obama for his "extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between people". The Norwegian Nobel Committee announced the award on October 9, 2009, citing Obama's promotion of nuclear nonproliferation and a "new climate" in international relations fostered by Obama, especially in reaching out to the Muslim world."
Can anyone cite ONE thing that he’s done to promote peace?
From HumanEvents.com, April 29, 2008:
"By all accounts, he [Obama friend and associate, Bill Ayers] was a ferocious, violent, revolutionary Marxist in his halcyon days as a Weatherman leader. He and his Weatherman bombers were enamored of Ho Chi Minh, Che Guevara, Fidel Castro, Mao Tse-tung -- indeed, all the murderous heroes on the Left. Referring to the Weatherman members in August 1969, he said (according to the FBI): 'We're revolutionary Communists.'
He got off on the group's multiple explosions, too, and discusses them rather lovingly in his memoir.
Ideal Bombing Weather:
'Everything was absolutely ideal on the day I bombed the Pentagon,' he writes (although he concedes it was really a group effort). 'The sky was blue. The birds were singing. And the bastards were finally going to get what was coming to them.' (p. 256 in the 2003 edition.)

From David Horowitz's FrontPageMag.com/DiscoverTheNetworks.org:
March 6, 1970: "three members of the Weather Underground accidentally killed themselves in a Manhattan townhouse while attempting to build a powerful bomb they had intended to plant at a social dance in Fort Dix, New Jersey -- an event that was to be attended by U.S. Army soldiers. Hundreds of lives could have been lost had the plot been successfully executed."

"The bomb was intended to be planted at a non-commissioned officer's dance at Fort Dix, New Jersey.
The bomb was packed with nails to inflict maximum casualties upon detonation."
"The bomb preparations have been pointed out by critics of the claim that the Weatherman group did not try to take lives with its bombings.
Harvey Klehr, the Andrew W. Mellon professor of politics and history at Emory University in Atlanta, said in 2003:
"The only reason they were not guilty of mass murder is mere incompetence. I don't know what sort of defense that is."[2]"

2007 Fort Dix attack plot
A group of six radical Islamist[1] men, allegedly plotting to stage an attack on the Fort Dix military base in New Jersey, United States, were arrested by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) on May 7, 2007. They were subsequently charged with planning an attack against U.S. soldiers. The alleged aim of the six men was said to be to "kill as many soldiers as possible".[2] Their trial began on October 20, 2008. [3]
Opening arguments were presented on October 20, 2008.
Assistant U.S. Attorney William Fitzpatrick said the defendants were inspired by jihad saying "Their motive was to defend Islam. Their inspiration was Al Qaeda and Osama bin Laden.

"It was at the Chicago home of [Bill] Ayers and [Bernardine] Dohrn that Obama, then an up-and-coming 'community organizer,' had his political coming out party in 1995. Not content with this rite of passage in Lefty World - where unrepentant terrorists are regarded as progressive luminaries, still working 'only to educate' - both Obamas tended to the relationship with the Ayers."

“March 6, 1970: “three members of the Weather Underground accidentally killed themselves in a Manhattan townhouse”
NYPD Det Chief Siedman had all the recruits at the police academy brought to the side to sift through the ruble to find pieces of the gang so they could be identified from fingerprints since DNA was not available then.
It pains me when I think about the minimum sentences which were handed out long after when these POSs coconspirators were found.
Actor Dustin Hoffman lived right next door in a private townhouse. After he was left homeless with a huge hole in the side of his building, he said words to the effect, “but I was on the right side, yet here I am a victim”.
You cannot fix stupid.
From the New York Times:
The House On West 11th Street
March 5, 2000
(excerpts from various pages of the 5-page article)
"Mr. Hoffman had become a movie star but partly because this was West 11th Street had continued to live a relatively secluded life. The street seemed destined to remain a kind of sanctuary, until just before noon on March 6, 1970, when the house next door, at 18 West 11th Street, exploded."
"Devastated by the explosion, the splendid house at No. 18 had been reduced to shattered walls and windows. Mr. Hoffman's living room wall had a huge hole torn in it. His desk had fallen into the rubble next door."
"He added: 'It was an interesting kind of victimization. Here I have good politics and I'm still getting blown out of my house.'..."
[note: the Weathermen/Weather Underground openly admitted they were revolutionary communists at war with their own country-etl]

Yeah, the owner of the townhouse let his daughter move in while he was away on vacation. I really feel sorry about those killed, sorry in that they all did not get blasted to bits as some got away.
promoting new climate?
Climate change is the greatest threat we face.
Thanks, ETL. BUMP!
Hope and change. It’s the bomb.
Below is a fairly recent photo of the house. It's the one with the angled bay window.
Lol! The problem isn’t so much scum like BO, but rather the millions of absolute idiots there are with the power to vote. If it were up to me there would be a minimum IQ level requirement in order to vote.
Nobel Committee, this is what comes of your credibility when you embrace the profoundly arrogant, supremely ignorant, fraud in the White House.
