President Obama has won the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize

[reader25]

You have got to be kidding me. The only thing this guy has done is trash his own country on foreign soil. I am sure there are more deserving people. For the Noble committee to do this based on perceived contributions really makes one question the process and tarnishes the image of the award.

[FarRightFanatic]

A joke, an utter mockery of peace.

[21stCenturion]

Yawn ...

This bauble lost any and ALL significance the day they awarded it to Arafat.

Awarding it to Obama is merely a continuation of the parody.

This upcoming vote may be the best explanation for why Zero sat on the General’s request for more troops.

Per FoxNews roundtable commentators, Obama was in office about 2 weeks when the deadline for Nobel nominations occurred.

Apparently, the Nobel committee nomination votes came before the recent SNL exposé of Obama’s “accomplishments” in office.

Or the Nobel committee just has a low threshold level for “accomplishments”, such as being able to tie his own shoe laces without assistance.

Bill Clinton will be po’d.

That is some funny stuff.

[ikez78]

I agree. Didn’t you used to have to actually accomplish something to win this prize?

[mware]

LOL check out this one. Even DU knows this is to insult GW.

161. I think you misunderestimate the importance of not being George W Bush.

[Archon of the East]

LOL, this is a joke. But to think this is how the Global elite autocracy see things is downright scary.

[Miss Didi]

Thankfully, we are also blowing up the moon today because if I have to hear one more lib talking point about how "the world was starving for real diplomacy after eight long years...” I think I’ll scream!

This might be better than Nyquil. Even the Huffington Post people are confused:

“President Obama has won the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize”

......for his extraordinary work in doing WHAT?

[jcsjcm]

what a joke.

Took the words right out of my mouth.

I guess these awards are nothing more than ........... nothing!

[Boardwalk]

I just saw a headline “0bama wins peace prize” and under it a top video “Michelle 0bama’s fitness secrets.”

The world has jumped the shark.

[CholeraJoe]

The US dollar is in the toilet, my Treasury securities are earning ZERO percent interest, soldiers are dying in Afghanistan, and I'm supposed to swoon because some half-breed usurper won a medal from a bunch of socialist fruits?

NOT!

[Ghost of Philip Marlowe]

Ummm....FOR WHAT!!!!!???????

If there was ever any proof that this is nothing more than a Leftist-of-the-Year award, this is it.

[penelopesire]

Now we know the REAL reason that Obama left our troops twisting in the wind in Afghanistan...he knew this ridiculous ‘peace prize’ was coming up and that he would likely win it due to his anti-Israel stance, so he didn’t want anything ‘getting in the way’...like sending more troops or support to Afghanistan.

The man is in ‘good’ company..Arafat and Jimmy Carter!

Pathetic!

Nominations for the Peace Prize closed in February. So someone nominated Zero after he was only in office 1 month.

So ... Zero was nominated for his presidential campaign (because he was barely in office and had no “accomplishments” on the world stage)?

This is “image and words” over deeds — just like the Carter & Gore awards. Something like a hang-over.

Carter - failed presidency
Gore - failed religion
Zero - might be failed country
