Why do you have to ruin what you said with something like that? It really gets to me when people say things like this, as if you're trying to imply that if someone can't do something, then he can't criticize it! The world would be a very silent place if people could not criticize something unless they thought they could do better

I complain, you complain, everyone complains... But the majority of us aren't complaining to say "well, if I was up there, I'd be doing a better job". I complain about Algerian politics non stop, the government is corrupt like almost every African government... However, me not being a lawyer, or a politician, I know that I wouldn't be able to do a better job... BUT, I still complain at things I don't like... Every citizen has a right to complain about their country! Comes with something westerners love to call Freedom of Speech!

Edit: Also, that little paragraph about why they gave Obama the prize is the problem with many people. I think you'll find that the majority of people that are against this prize are attacking this reason, not Obama... It seems people are too sensitive... Maybe the media in the US has been too negative, so Obama supporters assume that everyone that is against anything Obama, is attacking Obama... This is not the case at all! The closest thing I have to being negative towards Obama is the Obama craze! And even that, it's more a problem with his foreign supporters than Obama himself!!
