what a joke.

Peace Prize? Maybe Apeasement Prize. The guy hasn’t done sh** for peace. Just proved the Nobel committee are just a liberal front for horsesh**, like the Kennedy Center Awards, just handed out to liberal schmucks.

[Hot Tabasco]

Mutual admiration society......why not. This puts him right up there on that pedestal next to Jimmy Carter making them the two best presidents ever to run this country..(into the mud)

[Moose4]

Are. You. Freaking. Kidding. Me.

Maybe the Scandis threw him this bone because Rio got the Olympics.

It’s Obummer’s consolation prize for not being able to coerce the Olympic committee. They had to be feeling sorry for the F**k-up-in Chief, that is the only explanation that makes any sense.

He wins the Peace Prize for giving the green light to the nuclear programs in Iran, North Korea and now Venezuela?

[Little Pig]

So, given that the nominations had to be in by Feb 1, the sum total of his resume for being nominated is:

A few years as a small-time political rabble-rouser in Chicago; one incomplete term in the Illinois state senate, where some 90% of the time he lacked the conviction to vote anything other than the equivalent of “here”, and one of the few true votes he cast was to deny medical treatment to infants that had survived an abortion; One incomplete term in the US Senate, where again some 90% of the time he couldn’t muster more than a “present”; getting elected President, and going on vacation.

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.

[Oldeconomybuyer]

Bill Clinton will be po’d.

You know it’s bad when the DUmmies have no idea what he won it for:

That is some funny stuff.

[ikez78]

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

[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!

[TheRobb7]

“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.
