Comment: absurd decision on Obama makes a mockery of the Nobel peace
prize
Michael Binyon




The award of this year's Nobel peace prize to President Obama will be
met with widespread incredulity, consternation in many capitals and
probably deep embarrassment by the President himself.

Sadly, it seems they have so bedazzled the Norwegians that they
can no longer separate hopes from achievement. The achievements of
all previous winners have been diminished.


And the last sentence says it all.


I haven't been following this bizarre story but I seem to recall hearing
Barry as being quoted that "I don't deserve it". It's so rare that he is
caught telling the truth, we should implant that quote in our memory of
him. It is sure to become a classic along with "I did not have sex with
that woman" and probably several others that I cannot recall at this
moment.



The US does not get the Olympics, the Republican Party cheers, the
President gets the Nobel Peace prize and the Republican's say he didn't
deserve it.

There is no wondering whose side they are on. Traitors all.

Go ahead and argue that point.


Perhaps you should look around. It wasn't just Republicans who
questioned the award to Obama.
