Sure, sure, there were politics involved and politics is petty, but thats precisely the point. Consider the timing. On one level it might have been designed to influence the Afghan decision. In other words: Nobel Peace Prize Winner Calls For Troop Surge is going to look paradoxical to some, perhaps even the current decider.
On the other hand I wouldnt down play the worldwide reaction to he sickening virulence of American Obama-haters. The worldwide web circulation of pictures of thuggish goons carrying guns (yes I know its legal, itas also incredibly stupid), haters screaming down dissenters from their talking points at Townhalls, the kind of violence in the rhetoric of the anonymous cowards who spill their bilebehind their cowardly anonymityin the comments section.
Finally I think it was the Hitler mustaches on the Obama posters. Norway is a nation that was invaded by and lived under Hitlers rule. Sweden was threated into neutrality. I wouldnt blame them for wanting to rebuke these hysterical whiners trivializing Nazism before they unleashed some nut with a gun who took their frothings seriously. (Of course they could just be jealous of the attention given to the Danes).
But all in all I think you can pat yourself on the back, haters, youve just won your man (you know you love himyoure obsessed with him!) a Nobel Prize.
*And by the way I dont think it matters when the voting took place the hate has been goin on since he became the frontrunner for the nomination. And it could always have changed, It aint over til the fat man squeals (you know who I men).
Ron is useful idiot of the left.
Obama knew back in Sept of the nomination .
The decison as made in Feb before the town halls .
Barry was leaked he had won over the summer.
Sounds like he’d make a good hood ornament.
Yes. Liberals are what they claim to hate.
We're laughing and this guy thinks we're crying or something?

LOL. Best post on the thread.
Ron Rosenbaum
Slate’s Ron Rosenbaum Calls Jeff Jarvis ‘The Sarah Palin of Gurus’; Jarvis Calls Rosenbaum A ‘Third Grader’
Mr. Jarvis claims Mr. Rosenbaum’s criticism doesn’t solve any of the immediate problems in journalism. “Sadly, Rosenbaum doesn’t debate the idea and history and fate of journalism, which might be productive or at least provocative. Instead, like a pissy third grader, he attacks me.”
I say at some level, if you don’t trust the marketthe people, usthen you don’t value democracy, capitalism, education, art or journalism (for why trust, empower, enable, ennoble, and inform the people if we all a bunch of idiots?). ‘Hes the Sarah Palin of gurus,’ Rosenbaum says. ‘The crowd is always right.’ Dontcha know, it’s often more right than we give it credit for.
Slate columnist Ron Rosenbaum
Ron Rosenbaum who in Those Who Forget the Past claims that it was not the Zionist Jews who selected Palestine as their homeland but the Europeans who wanted to get rid of the Jews and deliberately gave them an untenable slice of desert in a sea of hostile people. Rosenbaum also claims that the Europeans purposely made Israel too small for Jews and Palestinians together, so that they could not avoid hating each other.
liberal Jew Ron Rosenbaum blames the Madoff fiasco on WASP emulation
He rails against everything WASP apparently because it apparently has something to do with Madoff.
“It began to seem to me that the whole Bernie Madoff scandal was not about Jews and money but Jews and respectability. (And, by the way, lets cut the crap about Jews and money in the first place. If you look at the history of America, the big money has always been made by criminals of non-Jewish persuasions. The non-Jews who committed genocide to steal the land in the first place. The non-Jews who built up big fortunes through the disgusting and murderous crime of slavery. The non-Jews who built respectable old-money fortunes on the broken backs of the wage slaves they exploited.”
This guy is a columnist? He gets paid for this? I thought this was some punk posting from KOS or something. Damn. Lefties fall for some twisted stuff.
Is it just me, or does this guy sound angry that Obama got the Nobel Prize?
you nailed it:

We have to disabuse ourselves of this myth.
Rush said it best the other day. He stated Nobel turned into a pacifist loon who advocated the elimination of standing armies. This was his standard for the prize he established.

I'm confused. Which haters? The GW Bush haters? They decided on obama in February, barely a few weeks into the age of obama, when people were still hating Bush. Were there other haters?
How bizarre the liberal world. Bush gets blamed for Chicago not getting the olympics, but haters are the reason obama gets the Nobel peace prize? I'm confused.

I can’t help but wonder who thought it was funny to put a crying, upset child into a toilet and snap a photo. Or maybe the child was crying because he was told he was going to be flushed?
I don’t know the story, but I think the kid was playing in the toilet and got stuck. You just can’t pass up the oportunity to take a picture of something like that, especially if you know the kid is not really hurt. Plus, when he becomes an older know-it-all teenager, you can say “remember when...”
