Obama wins 2009 Nobel Peace Prize

[Tingles]

Peace?

Is that "double speak"?

[SuperZ]

What a crock of cra*p
I read briefly that he was nominated a few days before he took over also, because that was when nominations had to be in by.

He has hardly had time to prove himself. The whole world is fixed

Nobel prizes have been devalued. There's even one for literature and one for economics FFS. Maths, Physics and Chemistry only surely?

There is no nobel prize for maths

[AtW]

It will make it harder for him to start a new war - which is precisely the idea behind it: ounce of prevention etc.

There is not but I am sure Nobel's invention will have killed someone in the time it took to type this post by an army headed by the chap that just won the peace prize.

Yes, that was their thinking, give him the prize to stop him bombing Iran.

Are you drunk?

[BrilloPad]

Eh? Why?

He didn't nuke iraq. Or afghanistan.

Though I suspect it was only because he couldn't find them.....

I'm sorry but "I'm a sad geek" is not an answer.

Have you run out of squirrels to feed then?
