Obama's Nobel prize a farce: Downer

Alexander Downer is right. BHO should NEVER EVER have been awarded a Nobel peace prize.

Call it a Nobel false peace prize.

Alexander Downer

[John Valentine]

The reason that Obama got the prize is simple. National Socialists stick together and assist each others agendas.

[Jeff Chandler]

The bottom line: He got it because he is black.

[Chgogal]

Obama has become a bad joke. He looks silly and weak accepting an award the world knows he did not earn.

[MissDairyGoodnessVT]

Soros influence and money ?

[mojitojoe]

Exactly! I’m glad he won. It’s a joke and the world knows it’s a joke and it makes him a joke. Now resentment sets in.

[Atchafalaya]

Nah, it was a Euro message...continue the appeasement foreign policy, more mea culpa’s, makes it hard(er) to drop 40,000 troops into war, harder to do anything with max force about Iran, and pumps Zero up for the true believers. Black helps, but that ain’t the reason.

[skr]

More likely, because he is an anti-American Marxist, just as they are.

[NEBO]

12 days of reading speeches on a teleprompter, speeches written by someone else.

he bottom line: He got it because he is black.

Yep, the "affirmative action" Nobelist.

[Post Toasties]

Maybe the Nobel Peace Committee should rename their prize the ‘Nobel Prestige Prize’ in the interests of honesty since it now is obvious that it no longer has anything to do with promoting peace. How telling that 0bama will actually travel to Oslo to accept this travesty of a ‘Peace Prize’.

Obviously, the committee is racist. Racism turns both ways. He should have NEVER excepted this award...but he is just way to much of an egomaniac to ever refuse it...his egomania is so over the top he is one sick puppy.

[Texas Mom]

He is a Liberal and he is Black and most of all they hate George W Bush so much he got the award for not being George Bush.

Bill Clinton and George H W Bush would have been very deserving with all the work they have done for the tsunami victims.

What can we expect next? The Pope has already named five new saints. Maybe next time.

[Tzimisce]

Not giving it to Obama would have been racist.

[Bellflower]

How telling that 0bama will actually travel to Oslo to accept this travesty of a ‘Peace Prize’.

Another reason to travel and lavish (an adjective or verb just morphed into a noun just for Obama).

[The Duke]

I think the Nobel Committee probably thought that his very clear, good intentions...

The road to Hell is paved with "good intentions".

[shalom aleichem]

It is similar to nominating Hillary Myers to the Supreme Court. Media drove Dubya nuts over that one. “Wh-a-a-a-at?!”

[lowbridge]

Mr Obama, for his part, seemed somewhat embarrassed when he commented on his achievement.

But he's still going to accept it.

[Leftism is Mentally Deranged]

The big faker will, in my opinion, accept the prize. Then in later years everyone will be talking about Barack Obama, Nobel Peace prize 2009.
