What. on. Earth?
Obama wins the Nobel Peace Prize "for his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples."
Do these extraordinary efforts of his include ignoring the troop needs in Afghanistan?
I'm serious. I wouldn't be surprised if they'd considered that.
Can someone explain to me what he's DONE to deserve this? Anyone at all?
Because, I'm just sayin', his name had to have been submitted for consideration back before February, just a week and a half after he was innagurated at the very latest. This is for not closing Guantanamo Bay but saying he will? For giving terrorist suspects all expense taxpayer paid vacations on sunny islands? What?
They're giving this to him for trying. Trying which, as of to date, has not resulted in Iran even opening up to have its SECRET NUCLEAR FACILITY inspected as it continues on an openly stated goal of Isreali genocide. Yeah... I'm seeing real progress there.
Not to mention that he is leading a nation that is engaged in a WAR on TWO fronts! How does that say Peace to anyone?
Seriously, this is just... Fawning. Pure, idolizing worship of a man. Anyone that defends this and all the indoctrination going around and the self righteous media... Oh dear fuzzy, the media. I'm sure CNN and PMSNBC have wet themselves with joy repeatedly over this. All the leg tingles... A sea of yellow... I'm afraid to check.
Let's just rename the Nobel Peace Prize to Best Liberal of the Year Award, huh? It's far more accurate to what it is they're rewarding, and it might actually help lessen the insults to the world persons who have actually devoted their lives to Peace. You know, those pesky people who have actually achieved something; that way, they know what it is the're up against.

But they do really need to change the name of the award. It's just... I think it's disrespectful, especially to the participants who are genuinely qualified for the description of the Prize, not to mention the previous winners of the Prize before it became so politicized.
