He gave hope to a lot of people... but it wasn't Nobel Prize-worthy.

A growing weakness on the international stage. Not since Carter has there ever been such a display to the world. This enboldens America's enemies. Would you like me to list these demonstrations, or do you deny that any exists. Quote:
Well.... that is... last time I checked the constitution. * The happy go-lucky Swedish have been quoted saying even they wouldn't be prepared to bail out and own car factories. * That little nationalized health care plan be proposed that has been proven to be unsustainable we can't afford * Wealth distribution .... demonstrated best by cash for clunkers. * The president has admitted that he doesn't believe in trickle down economics. * Government dependency programs growing * Call for more government regulation * Government spending was 37% of GDP in 2008... I fear what new highs this year will reach. * Bailouts: They are privatizing gains and socializing losses. * Don't get me started on what is being taught in public schools. and the list goes on...

Especially in the situation the US is in for many years to come. It was an excuse for the fed government to write itself a check, and have future adminsitration blame past administrations when it fails while they line their pockets. Chicago has got its issues aline... Quote:

Say what you will ... they are the media that are changing other major media sources. ABC and CNN refused to cover Acorn corruption and Van Jones until they couldn't play it down any more. The white house is tied to CNN/ABC/CBS so tightly that heads roll when anything really negative against the administration is uncovered and put out by these media giants. Its changing though for the better; which is wonderful ... recent Detroit and Chicago are examples of this.... Quote:
here is a stat top of the google lookup.... Government salaries vs. private sector salaries - CNN.com Most of them can't even be bothered to read bills they pass. Look at the amount of vacation and pay... You say "do not"... back it up my friend.

Ill post this quote again, because Im not sure anyone really read it.
"Oftentimes, the winners are people who have not completed their work toward peace, but who are at a critical juncture in their work and who need the support that winning the Nobel Peace Prize brings." And I still am not anywhere near convinced that he is a socialist. I have heard many arguments saying he is a socialist, but none have many facts. Health care is a big one that people call him a socialist for, I don't get it. And just becuase Fox news has had the balls to report something a couple times doesn't mean they do it all the time or are perfect. They report many false thing as well. Plus some of their "newscasters" report opinions not facts.

Nobel Peace Prize should be earned period.
Not for something you're in a "critical juncture" for. Carter got the award also for being in a critical juncture cause he didn't did sh!t for this country. MLK Jr. earned it Mother Teresa earned it Noble Peace Prize is a lost cause now.

Clint, I think we are going to have to agree to disagree. I could go back through point by point, but the little issues are not on topic and we are basically getting into opinion on both sides.
Regardless, let's hope that this award leads to the president helping make the world a better place. I think we can all agree to that.

Socialism means the government takes over doing things, deciding things, and running things from the private sector. They are the ones that make the decisions under socialism, not the people. Whether it is creating a government-run healthcare system, or requiring everyone to buy health insurance and being punished with thousands of dollars in additional taxes if you don't comply, that is government making the decisions. That's socialism. No one said Fox is "perfect", but they are a heck of a lot better than the sycophants at ABC, CBS, CNN, and (MS)NBC. They might as well be a state-run media, for all their objectivity toward him, and they unabashedly did everything they could to get him elected and to not report on any scandals.

Forget the "11 days" argument. It isn't true. Nominations ended in February, and then several months go by as the committee mulls it's decision.
