No they are saying it's for what he intends to do! NOT FOR WHAT HE HAS DONE! What a crock of poop! I'm so madd I could spit! Well, since they gave him the award for what he "intends" to do...I will apply the same logic and expect to receive notification of being selected for the Nobel Prize for Physics because I have actually read books about physics and really do intend to get around to working on a faster-than-light-speed drive for the starship I intend to build someday.

more international political manipulation to pull Obama closer into the u.n.'s agenda of de-Americanising the U.S.A.

When I first heard of this the reason given was because"He has given hope to everyone." I don't know who the (expletive deleted) 'everyone' is,but it sure doesn't include me! I wish those bottom-feeders in washington would move to europe and leave the rest of us alone.

I find the reason behind the prize it's self to be most interesting. Guilt seems to be a major reason the prize was created to start with. I blew you up so here's a prize. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Yep, that's right.
The "real" Nobel prizes are still quite an honor. The Nobel POS prize ain't worth worrying about anyway.

Just judging from the comments from the world media, it seems everyone is a little shocked and dismayed. PBO was in office 11 days before the candidate list was closed.
I've not been able to figure out what he did before he ran for President but from what I can find out, it wasn't anything that would seem to merit a Nobel prize either.
If nothing else, the folks who award the prize have greatly diminished the prestige of the award.

They did that LONG ago!
I'd be interested to find out if any of Obama's people nominated him, lobbied the committee, offered political favors, or if any money changed hands. We'll probably never know, but it's worth considering.

It is just another sign of the times. Madeline Halfbright is on all the network talking head news shows. She wrote a book that sold all of 5,000 copies. Sarah Palin who couldn't get on a network show if she paid for the interview sold 1.5 million copies of her new book that isn't even available yet. Seems us common folk want to hear what she has to say and the leftist media and Hollyweird types make her out to be the dumbest woman on the planet. Ronald Reagan caused the collapse of the Soviet Union and brought down the Berlin wall. Did he get a Nobel Prize? Nope. How many muslims are out from under the tyrannical rule of Sodamned Insane and the Taliban because of George W. Bush? Think he'll get a Nobel Prize? Nope. He was deemed arrogant because he believed the USA was the greatest country on this planet. I suppose that makes me arrogant also. I guess if he went from country to country insulting the USA, he would have gotten a Nobel Prize too. The Dixie Chicks will get a Nobel Prize before he does.
