Again, sweeping statements... and I have to this state at this point that if you want to follow the popular right-ring talking points that the IPPC, Al Gore and President Obama "have done nothing" then that is fine. It is easy to see nothing if you don't want to see anything. Then it is easy to say that the Nobel Peace Prize Committee is meaningless and makes poor choices for its internationally prestigious award.
Read my first post on this thread. It was easy to predict how it would go down.
Like I said, the honorable thing is to say "Congrats" and be happy our American president received this recognition, but that is not the state of the country today. Every turn is worthy of criticism and disdain, right? He fought to get the Olympics...he's an a-hole. He didn't get the Olympics...he's an a-hole. He got the Nobel Peace Prize...he's an a-hole...I am done.
