What you guys do not understand is that the Europeans secretly had plans to invade and destroy the US if the Republicans had maintained control... So by Obama being elected he averted World War III... :wtf: :nervous: |
This is the only plausible explanation. |

Lmao @ Wikipedia:
| quote: | | On October 9, 2009, U.S. President Barack Obama was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize less than one year after his taking office (in fact, the nominations closed on February 1, about 11 days after Obama took office). While the committee praised his ambitious foreign policy agenda, it acknowledged that he had not yet actually achieved many of the goals that he had set out to accomplish. Former Polish President Lech Wałęsa, a 1983 Nobel Peace laureate, commented: "So soon? Too early. He has no contribution so far. He is still at an early stage. He is only beginning to act." Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad noted that "WTF??? Nigga wanna BOMB us". |

| I would laugh if Obama indeed had to start a war against Iran during his presidency. |

LOL @ liberal commentator Ezra Klein's Twitter response:
| quote: | | Obama also awarded Nobel prize in chemistry. “He’s just got great chemistry,” says Nobel Committee. |
It's also being thrown out there, and this is an interesting point, that it's less about Obama worship and more about the Nobel committee warning him against taking tough action on Iran, Palestine, Afghanistan, etc.
Sayeth one person, "This fully exposes the illusion that is Barack Obama. And with this ‘award’ the elites of the world are urging Obama, THE MAN OF PEACE, to not do the surge in Afghanistan, not take action against Iran and its nuclear program and to basically continue his intentions to emasculate the United States. They love a weakened, neutered U.S and this is their way of promoting that concept." |

Gotta love political discourse in this country.
R: "Democrats are all commnist-lovers!"
D: "Republicans are all terrorist-lovers!"
That said, he's got a point - how is this Obama's fault? No matter what happens in the news, the Republican noise machine is out spinning the wheels to make it the President's fault. The Nobel Peace Prize isn't awarded by the White House - in fact, they appeared more stunned than anybody else this morning. |

Yo Barack, I'm really happy for you, imma let you finish, but this is the most preeemptive nobel prize of all time! :wtf:
I'm really shocked you can win a nobel peace prize before actually doing anything significant |

Also:
| quote: | | "I did not realize the Nobel Peace Prize had an affirmative action quota," wrote Erick Erickson, of the site RedState.com, "but that is the only thing I can think of for this news." |
But it's the Democrats who play the race card all the time, right? If there's anything that the last two weeks (Olympic announcement + Nobel announcement) has revealed, it's how froth-at-the-mouth-bat-crazy the conservative movement is becoming. |

Besides, once Yasser Arafat won it, it lost all its credibility anyway. |
If anything, that happened in 1973, when people actually had the bottle to give the prize to Henry Kissinger.
So, it looks like you can get the Nobel Peace Prize just for not being George W. Bush in office. Splendid. |

LOL @ liberals who've already forgot about 8 years of unhinged rabid hatred at anything and everything Republican.
btw- I don't see anyone promoting the idea that it's Obama's fault; everyone knows that even he and his camp were shockingly surprised. The joke is on the Nobel committee. |
