I understand your feelings of wanting to give him more...

but the NOBEL PEACE PRIZE is the highest honor he could receive

It goes beyond the Shrine we could build in Gainesville, FL and even goes beyond renaming 'The Blue Ridge Parkway' - 'The Obama Parkway'

I can't stand this, what has he done?

Perhaps the more appropriate question is What Hasn't He Done

The Norwegian Nobel Committee says U.S. President Barack Obama has won the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize for "his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples."

Please tell me anything that any LEADER -- that any President of the USA could do to surpass 'extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples'

I think it's WONDERFUL !!! and I would a thousand times over rather be associated with this kind of President and the 'outlook' others should see..... than the one before him.


Wow many posts since I started ..... was only these 3

Wow... how do those Nobel Peace Prize guys feel now that America has bombed the moon?

Come on, what did those moon folks do to deserve getting bombed?

....egg in your face moment for the Nobel folks indeed.

Wow, mixed feelings. I'm with Silverbird on this one. surprised, he's set a tone, yes, but accomplishments? too soon, too soon. And Steady, I grew up with the Parkway, my first job out of HS was near/on the Parkway so I would very very much object to renaming a beautiful place that has no party-affiliation for anyone in the country. Don't give people ideas, please? I feel as strongly about that one as I did and still do about renaming Dulles, which I've flown in and out more times than I can count-prior to renaming.

Just a show of force, Minnow.

Millions of years of Peace are maintained by our Show of Force....!!! Hand out the next prize!:laugh:
 
Steady,

Gainesville, Fla. is way to busy right now to bother with BHO. We are in the process of celebrating gay pride week. I like to hold hands and march in the parade - it's such fun. Can you imagine the warmth and hugs we share - even Showme would melt with glee.

Alevie -- Wow it's been awhile -- and I'm honored.

Well FIRST OFF --- whenever you see me making any kind of Post about Gainesville or about the 'Blue Ridge Parkway' ....

Please know it's just my silly way of saying: 'Hey Birch - I luv ya'

He is currently in Gainesville (only reason why I mentioned that)
and plans to get his Retirement Dream Home -- by the Lake in the Blue Ridge Mountains.... so that's how I came up with that..:embarrest:

But he's a Grizzly Marine and I'm kick ass Special Forces ... so I just can't come out and say it outloud... have to use cryptic writing...:cheesy:
Will avoid BRP in the future (one of my favorite places BTW)

As far as the other stuff -- gosh Alevie -- I'm mainly just trying to tip the balance ;) and nothing more. I mean if you look at just the first 3 posts....which is when I started writting.... my intent was to throw a twist on things (using his stuff :D) -- cause I thought it was way too lopsided...

Anyway - he's just another politician to me -- but if someone get the Nobel Peace Prize --- I think he deserves a little credit no matter who he is.

For what? He has not done anything but run up our deficit. Nothing else. He succeeded one of the worst Presidents of all times and that rates a Nobel?

No, he went on the "Apologize for America" tour right after his inauguration. It appears to me that if you criticize America (Carter, Obama) or present junk science that moves countries towards socialim (Gore), then you too could be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.

I think they just felt bad for Obama not getting the Olympic games and thought his popularity would be further damaged if he wasn't awarded the Nobel.

Can't you guys just accept the fact that we have a Nobel Peace Prize winner in the White House now? And that many around the world--not just those in the U.S. that voted for him, appreciate that?

Sheese.

GET OVER IT.

This is our President, and every American should be proud. Whether you agree or disagree with the selection of the Nobel Peace Prize committe, the fact is they have selected him.

Congratulations, Mr. President.

Yes, we can.

I accept that he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, but I don't think he deserved it. I wonder who else was on the short list for the prize?

:D:D Man you're pretty cool !!

Thanks for not being a Wimp or like a Pansy :cool:

If I could make a wish right now -- this very second --- we'd be eating pizza and drinkn' a beer
 
It's a great and noble thing. Our President Obama has won the Nobel Peace Prize. Considering what he has inherited, I think it's well deserved. What's even more rewarding is the reaction from the right wing. Nothing could be sweeter.
 
I gotta tell ya, I'm no fan of the democratic party, but I am embarrassed to call myself a republican today.
We can sit here on the MB all we want but when a leading republican who is in the media lime light says "What has he accomplished" well it shows me that you need replaced. What a loser. It is people like that which caused us to lose the presidency in the first place. We want our government officials to act like professionals instead of like the spoiled rich A$$es they are.
The man said he did not feel he deserved it.

“What has President Obama actually accomplished?” said Michael Steele, chairman of the Republican National Committee.

Get over it Steele, figure out who's going to run in 2012 and while your at it how about some good ideas to counter the democrats stimulas plan and healthcare. Quit putting $h!t in the "to hard to do column"
 
Yeah, yeah, Carter Carter Carter, he got it for what he did AFTER he was President. Al Gore got it what he did AFTER he was Vice President.

The winners we should be looking at for a comparison are the two Presidents who got it. One was a Republican, and if you told him he was some commie sympathizer and the US should apologize for anything he'd get you with his big stick (Thank you Theodore)!
