What is your guy's reaction to this announcement?
This topic is locked from further discussion.
Hell Yes! That is great news. For all the flack he catches it is nice to see recognition where it counts.
I have nothing against the man but I don't think he deserves this award. Not in the meantime at least.
Did you have someone in mind or were you just unhappy they picked Obama?With over 100 candidates on the list I'm sure there was someone on there who deserved this reward much more than obama did.. you know someone who can actually deliver what they say.
Rec-neps
What did Obama do to receive such an award? So what if he was the first black US president still doesn't change the fact he hasn't done much (or maybe he has which I am unaware of)
for his work in nuclear disarmament, new dipolomatic relations with the world, closing gitmo, i definitly think he deserved it. And he receives a nice £1.4m.. good retirement :P

Problem is, he only talk about it, he only change anti-nuclear shield program that my country had involved and repered relations with russia as result.... , thats it. All other current "pease operations" stuff is stated by Bush, Iran still yell about nuclear stuff as it was.
has he actually done much?lonewolf604
Nope.
All he's done is apologized over and over again in the hope of repairing "damaged relations" with foreign countries. He's given speech after speech, but when it comes time for another country to help this one, they've told him to pound sand or made him look even more moronic and naive than Bush. He went over to Europe and they all told him how much they loved him, but when he asked them to give us troops to help with Afghanistan they told him no. Then when he gave his big, bloated, pompous speech on nukes at the U.N., Iran made him look like an ill-informed, doe-eyed nobody by admitting they have a secret weapons site and launching a few test missiles in the air for good measure. Meanwhile, he removed the missile shield over our ally countries in Europe, which sounds like DEFENSE DISARMAMENT, not NUKES. He also flew to Copenhagen with Oprah to try and get the Olympics to come to Chicago while his Afghanistan commander was begging him for more troops, and he's spent so much money (quadrupled the deficit in ONE YEAR) that foreign investors are calling for another form of currency than the dollar because they know this guy's finishing the job that Bush started by bankrupting the country, and that there is a very good chance that all the DOLLARS they've invested will be worthless due to hyperinflation when the house of cards comes tumbling down. He promised that unemployment wouldn't hit 8 percent if he got his crapulus bill passed, and now we're going to be passing 10 percent any day.
Jimmy Carter won a Nobel Peace Prize, too, and he was about a spineless, do-nothing, self-loathing, douchebag. I'd say the award is a perfect fit. The ONLY thing Obama has really done right is ordering the SEALs to perform the Snipefecta on those idiot pirates who were holding that captain hostage -- that's about it. Granted, that WAS awesome (and we haven't seen much on pirates since we've started SHOOTING BACK, have we?), but it's certainly not much in terms of history.
EDIT: AND he let Nancy Pelosi handle the first draft of his (signature campaign promise) health care bill. What kind of a moron takes his supposedly "term-defining" agenda item and lets an unpopular socialist like Pelosi handle how it gets written? And then Obama got all upset when the country kicked it back in his face and he had to go on TV and say he was going to introduce his own bill, which he STILL hasn't done. This guy's ten pounds of BS in a five pound sack. He talks and talks, but does nothing. And what he does do is horrible. The guy's a mess. He has ZERO legislative experience, and it shows. He has ZERO business experience, and it shows. You've basically got a Junior Senator who used to work for Acorn running the country. And IT SHOWS.

Too bad most of that information was incredibly biased... does he watch much FOX News?I agree. What president hasn't said that? Yea, he closed gitmo, but that was due to international pushing. Seems like this award was given too early for him. I guess all you have to do now to win this peace prize is to just say that you'll do all these things instead of showing it.... Any world leader can make promises of a better tomorrow---but let's wait and see before we give him an award for doing something that's not yet been accomplished.

How can the truth be biased? Try discrediting anything I said.

And considering CNN has gotten in the propagandabusiness, you might want to branch out a bit into other channels, chief.
Look familiar?
How about now?
Or maybe this is better?
