Re: Nobel peace prize

He will have to be pretty barefaced to start another war after this award - maybe that's why they gave it to him - as a deterrant

He's stuck with two wars neither of which are his fault, an economy in crisis, and a many of his countrymen still hate niggers and would relish seeing him swinging from a tree. He didn't ask for this award .... and, quite possibly, wishes it had gone to someone else.

Neither party had a "best" choice candidate last year.

Those who oppose him based upon the color of his skin are a fringe minority indeed. In fact, the word racism is so overused today that it has lost virtually all meaning. In a recent interview, the president was asked about this - although in rather more delicate terms than those you have expressed. His answer, "I was black before the election." In short, he could not have become president without a majority white vote.

It seems perfectly logical to me that President Obama should have been awarded the Nobel since his philosophy is shared by those guys in Oslo and the use of the Peace Prize as a political weapon against the U.S. is not new. Sixty percent of Europeans surveyed last year said they wanted a United States that was weaker both economically and militarily. They should rejoice. Mr. O is just the man for the job.

Yup ... I'd go along with that.

Re: Nobel peace prize

I'm not alone in thinking as many of my friends who voted for him (I didn't) are now getting a bit 'cheesed off' by his quote...." I was a black man before I was President" ......No, Mr President , you are bi-racial , half white, half black , raised in a white household , by a white Mother , and white Grandparents . People who voted for him would never in a million years think of voting for the likes of Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton (African Americans )

I hope that's not the only thing they are "cheesed off" about. I told you last year that this guy had Marxist leanings. Convinced yet?
