It wasn't even that long. The nominations for the Nobel Prize end on February First. That's only approximately two weeks after the Inaugural.

How’s that Hope and Change working out for you.

I like what Newt said.....

“As an American I am not so shocked that Obama was given the Nobel Peace Prize without any accomplishments to his name, but that America gave him the White House based on the same credentials.”

I used to like these guys years ago when they had a sense of humor. Maybe since GW isn't President anymore others will realize what kind of fantasy they have been living in.
