Damn right....

And I've been reminded of others he shares company with.

Yasser Arafat, a master terrorist, was awarded the prize in 1994.

THAT is truly when the prize took a dive for me.

And now I wonder why I care....

It's....it's....it's just that it's SUPPOSED TO BE such an honor...

And I have way too much time on my hands to be discussing this stupid thing. :D

This just in: Obama awarded Nobel Prize in Chemistry for mixing himself a whiskey with Red Bull onboard Air Force One.

LOL!

Back on point. I do find it odd that he was President for less than 2 weeks when he was nominated. And just find it so insulting to the people he beat out (if you look @ the link above)

Maybe it does pan out and he does improve relations, but hold off on the Nobel Prize until then.....don't give it now just because he is thinking about fixing relations, or has sorta started to try and fix relations

Whew... Potentially dangerous thread, but glad to see that it's still civil. Before it gets bad, I wanted to make a comment.

My only contribution to this thread are two simple facts.

1. Nobel prizes are ONLY awarded to a person who is living - source http://nobelprize.org/contact/faq/index.html

2.Mahatma Gandhi NEVER won a Nobel Peace Prize.

Funny that's the same thing Jamarcus Russel (Raiders QB) says when he throws the ball ... "I tried real hard to throw it to the receiver ..."

Al,
Can we throw in a Championship for my Yankees given they won 103 games?
How about based on the fact they intended to win 162?
Please?

I give it 8 and a half hours. The equivalent of PBO's Senatorial experience.

While he is receiving awards he shouldn't, let's help him win the Heisman trophy too.

Go HERE and put him in as a write in vote.

It must have been the beer summit..

I think this is the europeans applying political pressure and trying to force the US out of Afghanistan.

Bear in mind, the nominations for this prize were due by February 1st, 12 days after he took office.
