Congratulation, President Obama!!!

No, amongst a lot of people.
It's ridiculous to give him that prize at this stage in his Presidency.
What, specifically, has he done? Oh, right, he ended the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, he created peace in the middle east, and he freed all the 'terrorists' held in Cuba. All in the first week of his term. What an accomplishment, I agree he deserves accolades.
What a foul thing to call someone. "You conservative, you". lmao Like conservatives are second class or something. What a bigot.
Ultimate prestige? The Nobel will likely soon be awarded to someone for picking lint out of their bellybutton if Obama gets one for some ultimate achievement. roflmao
Right... Liberals and Democrats are saying...
"How embarrassing... 11 days in office? The GOP is going to have a field day."
What hes done peace wise is told the world they will talk first before taking the heavy hand with sanctions,tough talk,bullying and bombs.
The USA needs this IMO,they are hated all over for a reason,time to shed that bush bully image and act like adults.

Right... he's accomplished NONE of it!
Both wars are still ongoing...NUKES are for anyone who can make them...Isreali-Palestine Conflict still going on... Guantanamo still open.
Guantanamo is the easiest. Just close it down!
ALL PRAISE OBAMA!

If the USA gave out prizes, Obama should be considered. This is the first time I have ever seen a Nobel Prize given out just for being there ... and no, Joey, I am NOT a conservative by any stretch of the imagination. They worship money ... just like you
He hasnt started any new wars for oil and they are seriously looking to decrease their dependance on middle east oil.
Thats why the Saudi's are now asking for promises of world aid when the dependance on their oil wanes and I'm not making that up.
The love affair with Bush isnt helping them anymore.
President Barack Obama in a show of class and his dedication to charitable causes announced that he will give all of the proceeds from winning the Nobel Peace Prize to charity.
There has been no word yet from the White House on what charity the 1.4 million in prize money will be going to.
How about the charity known as "the poor"?President Barack Obama in a show of class and his dedication to charitable causes announced that he will give all of the proceeds from winning the Nobel Peace Prize to charity.

This has nothing to do with political stripes of Republican or Conservative or
Liberal or Democrat or whatever. It doesn't even have anything to do with
being Canadian or American. Barrack Obama happens to be an American
Democrat Politician, but that's it. I'm sure the Guy has a rough eleven days
between (& including) January 22nd, 2009 and February 1st, 2009....but a
Nobel Peace Prize?
Can somebody nominate me right now, 'cuz I might do something between
now and next October? I sure as hell hope that anyone's Race hasn't anything
at all to do with them receiving a Nobel Peace Prize like you're implying.

Liberals and Democrats are not saying that EagleSmack, most of them are happy for Obama (and I suspect so are most of the independents). it is only the conservatives who are apoplectic that Obama got the Nobel Prize, and their man, Bush didn’t get it.
To be fair, if Bush had got the Nobel Prize, Republicans would have been ecstatic and Democrats would have condemned it. It is really representative of the poisonous atmosphere in US society, in US politics.
Indeed, the fact that some pundits are saying that this award could be divisive (in US society) shows the pathetic, sorry state the USA is in. If one of them getting a prestigious award such as Nobel Peace Prize is going to divide the society, I don’t see any hope for USA. I don't see American society coming to together to solve any of the horrendous problems facign them.
He beat Jesus!:lol:
Not quite, kakato. According to many Republicans, Obama is the Anti-Christ. Even if he beat Jesus in 2009, they have no doubt who will win eventually.
Anna you will have to assume the title of ignorance yourself. I sure as hell won't attach it to you. Obama has measurably added to the good will the U.S. currently enjoys. Obama has been very well received in every country he has visited including Canada. Obama has done a lot more than just not being Bush.
That would be my understanding kakato; the money is his to do as he wishes. I don’t see why it would to go the government, as ironsides said. And I suspected he probably will donate it to charity anyway.
I don’t think Obama needs the money. Once he is out of office, he will make millions in a very short order by charging for appearances, writing a book etc., like the Clintons did. So donating the money to charity was the right (and classy) thing to do.
I beg to differ. I think indies are a lot smarter than either Dems or Reps. They've eliminated the partisan crap that Dems & Reps, Glibs & Cons exercise.
Yeah, and it has nothing to do with the fact that Obama didn't do anything in the first 11 days of his presidency?:roll: roflmao
