This is one huge slap at Mr Bush and the idea that America must be strong and defend itself. Zer0 wins by apologizing for everything we do, and being friendly with despots. In short, no surprise the far left nobel committee gives him the prize!

Who will be among the first to congratulate him though, and be totally gracious about it? GWB! That should almost make HIM more eligible for this meaningless prize.

Clearly the Committee believes that by awarding its imprimatur to Obama it can further Obama's policies which can most accurately be described as the betrayal of Israel, the betrayal of Poland and Czech Republic, and the neutering of the United States.

Although the committee would not see it this way, their naïve one world view holds that pain is caused not by evil by resistance to it.
