Obama Wins Nobel Peace Prize?

This is as bad as Milli Vanilli winning the Grammy Award in 1990.
This is a PERFECT analogy. Holy cow, so funny.

Milli was more deserving of his award.

Really? Compared to the Indigo Girls?

afghans 'confused' by obama's win

nbc news correspondents and producers around the world share some of the local reactions they heard to news that president barack obama won the nobel peace prize.


By adrienne mong, nbc news producer

kabul, afghanistan – news that president obama had won the nobel peace prize came as a surprise to people we spoke to in kabul.

At the kabul fried chicken restaurant in the shar-e naw neighborhood, obaid alam congratulated us at first. "you are from america, yes? I should congratulate you," he smiled at first.

But when we asked whether he thought the u.s. President deserved the prize, he replied, "he just became the president. things are just the same as the way they were by the administration of mr. [george w.] bush. Things are not better, things are worse and worse."

in fact, alam said, as far as afghanistan is concerned, "the number of u.s. Army [troops] has increased here. The number of terrorist attacks increased here. I’m kind of confused whether that nobel award [is] for all those things."


similarly, another customer at the restaurant, who did not offer his name, said no one had seen any results yet from obama’s efforts to bring peace to the world. "since he is the president just for the last eight months, i think that’s too early."

these sentiments were echoed everywhere in local afghan media, although there were extreme versions as well. On the one hand, president hamid karzai offered his congratulations. on the other, a taliban spokesman condemned the award, saying obama’s strategy has been to increase the number of u.s. Troops on afghan soil, which has increased violence and lead to the deaths of more civilians.

If Obama was honest, he would've said no, and i would've had profound respect for him.

Imagine if he said something like.

"I do not feel it is acceptable for me to be awarded a peace prize, when I've had to take drastic, but necessary actions that have resulted in innocent deaths"

I would not agree with the necessity of the actions but, i would at least respect him for not viewing himself as an advocate of "peace". Unfortunately, he's an egomaniac and is pretty much a professional award and praise acceptor.

I meant MV was more deserving of their award than Barry is of his.
I think they are actually exactly the same. Neither deserve accolades. MV was a fraud as is Obama. And there were very deserving recipients who were passed over.

Teleprompter, lip-syncing... It's all the same thing. Milli Vanilli contributed absolutely nothing to music just as Obama has contributed absolutely nothing to peace.
 
This is proof that Nobels are not Nobels any more; they are political tokens.... A peace prize for the man who continues and builds on the worst warmongering foreign policy known in recent history. ... sad, very sad, but not surprising.

QFT! And moreover....this is just further evidence of the MSM's attempts to desperately sell Obama and his shaven Wookie looking wife to the sheeple!
 
This is appalling. It's an insult to all almost everyone else that's ever gotten a peace prize. I guess the messiah really can do miracles?
