You can post a Barry, but please excuse me while I take an Obama.

Folks, It's a new era! It's not what you've accomplished - it's what you ASPIRE to accomplish. Everyone's a winner, ALL get a prize.

Excellent points we need to consider.

"Diplomacy and cooperation are the cornerstones of a strong, effective foreign policy"

And neither is worth $h#% without Aircraft carriers, B52's, US Marines, etc and someone with the brains and stones to use them. Zero has neither.

They might as well give it up, everyone is laughing. Even die hard liberals are laughing about this.

That’s really the 2009 Nobel Committee?

15 white guys and a token chick. Nice.

It's not what you've accomplished - it's what you ASPIRE to accomplish.

I guess to phrase it another more modern way...

Good intentions are all that matters... for the GPS directions straight to Hell. ;~))

Honestly, all I can fault Obama for this is accepting the idiot award. If he had any sense of dignity or history, he would reject it and tell them their are more deserving people.

It is the Nobel Peace Prize committee once again demonstrated, beyond all reasonable doubt, to be mind numbed politically correct idiots pushing an agenda that is the total opposite of peace. They have turned the prize into an Orwellian joke.

Any person with a shred of integrity given this award in the future for any accomplishment, large or small, should simply decline and tell them to stuff it. They are a joke. The Prize has become a joke.

With my “One Big Ass Mistake America” and “Got a Birth Certificate?” stickers on my car, I have been waiting patiently for somebody to question me.

Sadly, no takers yet. I love Political discussions, but Liberals have nothing to say that makes any sense and no factual information to back up anything they might pull out of their A$$es.

No title of nobility shall be granted by the United States: and no person holding any office of profit or trust under them, shall, without the consent of the Congress, accept of any present, emolument, office, or title, of any kind whatever, from any king, prince, or foreign state.
It just struck me that I read that the Nobel "peace prize" committee is actually a creature of the Norwegian Parliament. If so, accepting the "prize" is illegal without a vote of Congress.

Let's see if we can get as many people as possible on FR to go here (write-in Obama vote for Heisman) to show the absurdity of this award.

.... because when a liberal says that the world is “yearning for American leadership,” every other liberal knows that “American leadership” is code for “American capitulation to the worst political theories of the last 3,000 years.”

I received this from the Democrat Party:

“We woke up yesterday to tremendous news: The Nobel Committee has awarded this year’s Peace Prize to President Barack Obama.

The President made a conscious decision from the beginning of his presidency to promote American ideals through re-invigorated diplomacy, talking to rivals as well as allies, and inspiring us all to put what binds us together ahead of what pushes us apart. Yesterday’s news is a clear sign that the United States has returned to its long-standing role as a world leader.

It’s also a reminder of why we all worked so hard to elect Barack Obama as president of the United States. Hearing the President announce that he will accept the award as a “call to action,” I was inspired once again:

“...I know that throughout history, the Nobel Peace Prize has not just been used to honor specific achievement; it’s also been used as a means to give momentum to a set of causes. And that is why I will accept this award as a call to action — a call for all nations to confront the common challenges of the 21st century.” The news has left me deeply proud to be an American. So I want to congratulate President Obama, and give every American the opportunity to join me in saying “Congratulations, Mr. President.”

Send a message of congratulations to the President.

President Obama’s efforts to bring world leaders together are helping the people of the world face monumental challenges like nuclear arms proliferation, conflict resolution and climate change. His deep commitment to constructive solution and building alliances is bringing about a safer America and a more peaceful world.

It’s exactly the change we fought so hard for.

The prize reflects a world that all Americans want to build. For our nation, it brings a sense of enormous pride. But it also brings a sense of deep humility about the work that remains if we are to resolve the global problems facing humanity.

As President Obama continues to work for a world in which conflicts are resolved peacefully and prosperity is widely shared, we will stand with him. And today, we’re taking a moment to simply say, “Congratulations”:

http://www.democrats.org/NobelCongrats

Sincerely,

Governor Tim Kaine Chairman”

They want us to send congratulations to Obama for being a Quisling...
