NO, you can’t be depressed at the Nobel Prize news. It’s so totally absurd, it is simply funny. It had me laughing uncontrollably here at work — more so than any thing I’ve ever seen on the silliness thread.

Obama winning the Nobel Peace Prize is, in fact, the most silly thing that I have EVER seen on a Friday.

It’s not like Arafat, which WAS depressing, because it’s not that Obama did things that in fact were evil but are counted for good. It’s that Obama has done NOTHING for peace in his entire public life.

And their main reason for giving him the prize is that he said he wanted a world without nuclear weapons.

Well, I said that too — can I have a prize? My kids said that when they were in grade school. Doesn’t everybody except tyrannical madmen WISH that we didn’t have nuclear weapons threatening us?

It’s just that most adults actually know you can’t really make the world safer, or peaceful, by removing nuclear weapons, because you can’t get rid of them all. It’s impossible.

Except Obama doesn’t understand this, because he’s an idiot. And the Nobel people just gave out a peace prize to the guy that is too stupid to know that you can’t get rid of nuclear weapons and still have peace.

And that, my friends, is silly.

And the runners up are...every beauty contest participant for the past 50 years.

“It’s that Obama has done NOTHING for peace in his entire public life.”

I guess he got it just for being Obama.

I am no longer dismayed(as in-am I hallucinating?)when I hear such things.

Nothing surprises me anymore. It’s just another crazy day.

I expect there will be teachers all over the country scrambling to write another verse in order to keep the hymns to Obama current by reflecting this great and hystorical moment.

I was asked yesterday why NASA couldn’t have arranged the LCROSS impact to happen in prime time instead of first thing in the morning. I said, if it was in prime time, Obama would interrupt the broadcast with a 30 minute infomercial on single payer health care. It looks like he and the Nobel committee found a way to interrupt the LCROSS impact anyway,

And their main reason for giving him the prize is that he said he wanted a world without nuclear weapons.

That is not his goal at all.

He wants to take America down a notch and other Dems agree that we should not be the leading nation in this world.

If the goal was to strive for a world without nuclear weapons, Iran would be stopped NOW.

Their missiles may be able to strike Eastern Europe now.

The Soviets built a nasty doomsday machine. It seems that in 1983 a button pusher refused the order to launch a mutually assured destruction (MAD) attack "in retaliation" for a "missile attack" from the US. Except we hadn't launched, it was a fault reading from the Russians.

The man was later (20 years later) celebrated for his defiance (A HREF="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stanislav_Petrov">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stanislav_Petrov.

Anyway, after that point, the Soviets constructed an AUTOMATED launch doomsday machine. Mother Russia gets hit, we are on the receiving end. (Inside the Apocalyptic Soviet Doomsday Machine(Wired 09.21.09) ) Perhaps the Iranian dictator plans to knock over the dominoes that are standing.

Sleep well tonight knowing that President Obama is NOT stopping the Iranian nuclear program that could be fruitful within a year.
