I think somebody nailed it earlier by pointing out that Obama has now been crowned the “King of Peace”, and as such, is officially prohibited by world mandate from acting like a commander in chief.

A real CoC defends America’s interests with all the means at his disposal. This one can not and now will not.

You wrote: “Yasser Arafat also won the Nobel Peace Prize, so what is it worth?”

You have a point there. Look at all the war mongers & idiots who have been given the prize in recent years. It seems to me that people like these (meaing the intellectual prize givers) are usually people who like to destroy honor & prestige. I would say they are doing a good job of it. The prize has been a joke for a long time and will continue to be a joke. It’s no different then winning a lottery prize, it takes no aptitude.

He got this for one reason, and one reason only: For not being George W. Bush.

Reminds me of the morning I woke up to the news that Princess Diana had been killed in a car crash. It is so ——ing UNbelievable. Something has to give. This is the result of mass delusion. An antidote is necessary to bring the deluded back to reality. Socialism (communisim & fascism)are death camps that place a yoke upon the back of the many to support the elite in their luxuries & indulgences and perpetuate poverty.

BO was sworn in on Jan 20th 2009
The last date for filing of nominations for the Nobel Peace Prize was Feb 1st 2009.

Surely 10 days are sufficient for BO to do work worthy of a NPP, nay? :)
