A line must be drawn in the sand. We cannot persist in calling everything ungood for a politician a “gaffe.”
The Nobel Peace Prize for 2009
The Norwegian Nobel Committee has decided that the Nobel Peace Prize for 2009 is to be awarded to President Barack Obama for his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples. The Committee has attached special importance to Obama’s vision of and work for a world without nuclear weapons.
Obama has as President created a new climate in international politics. Multilateral diplomacy has regained a central position, with emphasis on the role that the United Nations and other international institutions can play. Dialogue and negotiations are preferred as instruments for resolving even the most difficult international conflicts. The vision of a world free from nuclear arms has powerfully stimulated disarmament and arms control negotiations. Thanks to Obama’s initiative, the USA is now playing a more constructive role in meeting the great climatic challenges the world is confronting. Democracy and human rights are to be strengthened.
Only very rarely has a person to the same extent as Obama captured the world’s attention and given its people hope for a better future. His diplomacy is founded in the concept that those who are to lead the world must do so on the basis of values and attitudes that are shared by the majority of the world’s population.
For 108 years, the Norwegian Nobel Committee has sought to stimulate precisely that international policy and those attitudes for which Obama is now the world’s leading spokesman. The Committee endorses Obama’s appeal that “Now is the time for all of us to take our share of responsibility for a global response to global challenges.”
Oslo, October 9, 2009
An amateur clown on the world's stage.
The MSM is use to kissing dem butt... they didn’t call Bush’s mistakes gaffes... Corrupt little kiss-ups...
Most liberals have their OWN sense of self-worth and intellectual standing wrapped up in the leaders they support.
This is why we get the “every liberal is a genius and every conservative is a dunce” meme.
Ever notice that liberals take it personally when you point out the ineptness of a democrat politician or policy? That’s because they have themselves wrapped up in that politican or policy and denegrating it is denegrating them.
What if Obama’s NOT a clown. What if all the horrors, overspending, thuggy Homeland Security types, Muslim up-raisings, pictures of Russians ships at the DNC convention - what if it’s all intentional and well thought out?
What if he’s not a clown?
When our Navy is crippled by the ‘mistake’ of having too many ships in too small a pond ... you’ll know. And it’ll be too late.
I don’t think Obama’s stupid - I think we’re stupid.
He expressing disappointment that the WH stooge has revealed his real thoughts...
“His diplomacy is founded in the concept that those who are to lead the world must do so on the basis of values and attitudes that are shared by the majority of the worlds population.”
Values and attitudes of submitting to government and shunning freedom?
If only that were true.
He's an amateur clown, but he's got highly-skilled barbarian practitioners of darkness and evil on the other end of the BlackBerry, pulling his strings.
I think you’re right.
You have nailed it with that statement. That is also why the MSM is able to sell us their product. We buy it.
Not only Stunned but Stuned too.
Bingo!
Agreed. Obama's not a clown. He's a pawn.
His puppeteers don't care how clumsy he looks, as long as he completes his task of ending American "colonialism".
Well, if they’re no longer an ally, it’s directly the fault of the Obama administration. Egypt, under Hosni Mubarak, was an ally of America. The administration was involved in his removal. The Muslim Brotherhood (who the administration praised) is now in control. Thus, if they’re not an ally, we have nowhere else to look but to the administration for that result.
BTW, I agree with him to the point that they’re not an ally. But I disagree with the point they’re not an enemy.
What if hes not a clown?
When our Navy is crippled by the mistake of having too many ships in too small a pond ... youll know. And itll be too late.
I dont think Obamas stupid - I think were stupid.
Bingo! We have a winner! 0bama is our first enemy-President.

Every village has its idiot why can’t Obama be the world’s idiot?
