How much would you bet that he gets an Oscar, even if only for a

If anyone deserves an Oscar for a televised speech it is David
Letterman.

Well, they both deserve it. At least Letterman gets paid to be a
comedian. 'Bama's becoming a great comedian, but that's not what he's
getting paid for.

Apparently Letterman was also getting paid to be a whore master.

So he was gettin' laid... as repulsive as that sounds, so what?

Who would you put before Obama using the above definition?

Shimon Peres, president of Israel, on the news that Barack Obama has won
the Nobel Peace Prize:

"Very few leaders if at all were able to change the mood of the entire
world in such a short while with such a profound impact. You provided
the entire humanity with fresh hope, with intellectual determination,
and a feeling that there is a lord in heaven and believers on earth".

Huh? You buying into this religious stuff?
What's next, the Taliban praising the award?
Don't get me wrong. I think Obama will do fine, and has leavened
judgement.
But the only reason for him winning the Peace prize was to **** off
Tom and the Reps.
I'm just trying to figure out how MSNBC fixed the vote.
The whole thing is pretty ****ing stupid from any objective viewpoint.
Besides, the Reps need to regain their sanity.
This only drives them further over the cliff.

So, you as a formerly fair minded individual feel that Obama "earned" the award??

Why do you say that, when everything I've said about the issue points
in the other direction?
Don't let your knees do your typing.
But just in case, no, I don't feel he earned it.

Don't know. Tom posted some that may be worthy.
Point is, Obama doesn't qualify using the above criteria.
"Fraternity between nations?"
Is that like coalition of the willing? hehe.
"Abolition of standing armies?"
Nope.
"peace congresses?"
Nope.
Hey, I don't care that he got the award. But I bet Obama was ****ed.

Yes, another thing the lunatics on the right can blame on Obama.

Receiving a peace award.

Remember they also gave it to Arafat. Sometimes it's given to
inspire, Obama was smart enough to position it as such.

Even Pres. Obama doesn't feel he deserves it. So, what is the right
screaming about? I don't get it.
