Lib- I love this Country and will fight tooth and nail until my last breath has been expelled defending the Constitution of the United States. What I do hate is our current govt as of late and this goes back before carter, so I have had a long time to hate the Federated powers that be.
I think the Nobel has been cheapened and it is not just the dipsh!t in the whitehouse it has been a few of the selected morons who did not nor would ever deserve the Nobel.
Also big surprise if the mac daddy in the house was to head the un, big deal, the un has no authority here, so let him play the big guy of a organization that is all talk and do nothing, and has no power whats so ever.

I'm not an Obama hater, but I am totally surprised that he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.
I was watching some international news where folks interviewed were perplexed that so many Americans are baffled by the award. The message that I took away from the interviews is that much of world feels that we American critics are racists for disagreeing with the selection.
The morning-after reaction to President Obama’s Nobel Peace Prize continues to be a massive and collective “Huh?”
Editorial writers and commentators — like millions of people around the world — are still scratching their heads, trying to figure out the awarding committee’s rationale, naming those they think might have been more deserving recipients, seeing politics as the motive.

IT'S AN ODD Nobel Peace Prize that almost makes you embarrassed for the honoree. In blessing President Obama, the Nobel Committee intended to boost what it called his "extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples." A more suitable time for the prize would have been after those efforts had borne some fruit."
QUOTE
The Nobel Committee's claim that Mr. Obama has "created a new climate in international politics" is about as realistic as last week's "Saturday Night Live" parody skewering the president for failing to deliver, already, on a series of campaign promises.

Excessive praise can be unwelcome and embarrassing. Just ask President Obama, who awoke Friday to discover that he had been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize before he had completed even a year in office. Obama managed to be both abashed and appreciative in his response, but no amount of self-effacing spin can obscure the oddity of this award.

The Nobel Peace Prize awarded to President Obama yesterday was greeted with astonishment as much as any other emotion, even among many of his admirers. Our own reaction is bemusement at the Norwegian decision to offer what amounts to the world's first futures prize in diplomacy, with the Nobel Committee anticipating the heroic concessions that it believes Mr. Obama will make to secure treaties that will produce a new era of global serenity.
Maybe he really is The One.

It's not his fault that Barack Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize – the president was no doubt as surprised as anybody by the news and was commendably humble in his public acknowledgement of the prize – but the truth is, he doesn't deserve the honor.

People like you don't think he deserves to be President. Why would you think he deserves the Nobel Peace Prize? Obama has them BOTH!! He's a ROCK STAR!! Accept it!!
I was pretty sure if memory served me correctly, one infamous person from our past also received an endorsement for the peace prize.
Here it is.

QUOTE
With all respect, I would like to propose the German Reich canceler and Fuhrer Adolf Hitler for Nobel Peace prize for the year 1939, who have enlightened millions of people, and who among all men are worthy of this high honor.
From authentic documents, we can acknowledge that the World peace was in great danger in 1938, and that it was a matter of hour´s that an European war might have started. The man who solved this situation saved our continent, from this enormous catastrophe, was certainly the great leader of the German people. In the critical moment, he freely restrained from exploding mines, even though he had the powers to start a World War.
Out of his love for peace, earlier explained in his famous book Mein Kampf, after the Bible, the literature of the Worlds most outstanding teachings, and his past record of solving conflicts by peaceful means, without spilling blood, with Austria freely coming a part of Germany, we assure he will in critical situations, abstain from using violence, when he moves on to liberate the home longing Germans in Sudetenland , as a part of making his fatherland big and mighty.
It is than very likely, that Hitler, if he is not disturbed by war loving enemies, will in a peaceful manner, fulfill his highest wishes, to see a pacifistic Europe and may be the whole World.
Unfortunately, there are many people, who are not able to see the greatness in Adolf Hitlers effort to bring peace. And I herewith suggest that you as soon as possible give him the Nobel Peace prize, since another group of Parliamentarians in Sweden have suggest another candidate, the Prime Minister of England, Neville Chamberlain.
Such a suggestion does not seems to be well taught through. It is of course correct, that Chamberlain from the goodness of his heart, and his understanding of Hitlers work for peace, have contributed to save Europe from war. But the final hard work and approval, was not with Chamberlain, but with Hitler. It is Hitler, and no one else, who have safeguarded World peace, and whom we have to trust for as the keeper of peace in Europe.
It has to be admitted, that Chamberlain have contributed to peace in Europe, and that you should consider giving him a minor part oft he prize. But see through that the name of the British Prime Minsters do not be permitted to cast shadows on the greatness of Hitler. Adolf Hitler is the greatest leader of our times, a man of God`s mercy, the prince of peace, in whom millions of people have put their trust.
Stockholm, 27th of January 1939 E. G. C. Brandt. Member of the Parliament of Sweden
