Obama Wins Nobel Peace Prize: Was this a Political Statement or...?

Many people are wondering, "What did HE do to win this?

He was nominated 10 days after he was elected?

How deep was the Chi-town political machine/ACORN involved?

OR...

Is this a huge statement from the International Leftist/Socialist movement endorsing the internal destruction of Traditional America that is taking place under the Obama Political Agenda?????

Jimmy Carter won a Nobel, yet he was a disaster for America...Obama is already at work crippling our country far more than Carter ever dreamed of!

What say you America?

Please opine with pithy comments anytime anytime if so inclined. And when answering, please do not ....upchuck...in the No Spin Zone!

    I'm afraid this award will only re-enforce Obama's beliefs that the US will talk with Iran and use the carrot to make them cooperate...instead of applying a big stick and whack them inbto complying with the Nuclear Non-Proliferation treaty they signed.

    Israel will have to "go it alone" and to do so very soon too!

    I feel like upchucking, Bill! He gives great speeches overseas at the expense of our country and he has weakened our economy. He has no concept about what the American people. He is more concerned about shoving health care reform down our throats rather than repairing the economy. He is a joke of a president and I feel confident that even if Mickey Mouse runs against him, he will lose a second term.

  • I say..isn't that Obama really racking up those frequent flyer miles! Now he's sure to go to Stockholm after getting the brush in Copenhagen!

    he has every reason to stay away from Washington...he still has yet to do anything of note there either!

    Ta Ta!

    Obama makes me sick, and so do the lefty Euro Loons that run the Nobel State Commitee on international political correctness.

    It was Definitely political maneuvering inside and outside of our borders HOWEVER, Obama receiving the Peace Prize will bode well for American history.

    What a discredit to the Nobel Peace Prize. Shameful.

    NO ONE who makes fun of the Special Olympics deserves ANY TYPE of award.

    This is the left from other nations trying to control our policy. Now 0bama will have a hard time sending more troops into Afghanistan.

    It is a political statement. People are implying by giving him this prize that his way, and their way is the future and it will happen. That isn't really a good thing.

    it's just a ploy to try to win back his approval rating. The only prize I see him winning is for spending our tax dollars at a super sonic rate!! and all for NOTHING.

    Most of us figured out the Nobel peace prize lacks any credibility years ago.
