With the peace Nobel award for Barack Obama, wishful thinking has gained a triump like none before over the realities of global politics.

Perfect summary.

Darn it Skybird...we finally agree on something!:yeah:

The unusual consensus shows how very much idiotic this decision is. My breakfast fell out of my face when I read it this morning.

Perhaps this poor maneuver with the Nobel Peace Prize will shed some light on just how stupid and just how much faith the world is putting into Obama that is totally misdirected.

I just think it points out what has been known for a long time.

The Nobel Peace prize commite should be re-named to Agenda Steering Committee.

What was once an honerable and noteworthy accomplishment is reduced to 'we like you and your agenda'.

Splitting the atom... pffffft that was nothing.

Yes, sadly for me, I cant use my hands to the same extent as you would, so when I'm eating, my face tends to go very near the food, for reaching purposes, you know.

But for human to show this behaviour it is most illogical. :hmmm:

Fellow Nobel prize winner Jimmah Carter weighs in.



Quote:

WASHINGTON (AP) - Former President Jimmy Carter says the Nobel Peace Prize awarded to President Barack Obama is a "bold statement of international support for his vision and commitment."

Carter won the peace prize himself in 2002, two decades after leaving office. In a statement, he described the Nobel committee's decision Friday as support for Obama's work toward peace and harmony in international relations. Carter says the award shows the Obama administration represents hope not only for Americans, but for people around the world.

Wouldn´t surprise me one bit if it was true. Some Norwegian politicians like to believe that this mini nation is some kind of humanitarian superpower with major influence in world affairs :rotfl2:
