The only one that deserves it less then Jimmy Carter or some of the other nit wits.

Seems that they have made the prize of little value. (except the prize money) :oops: :oops: :-&

He won for not being George Bush. It was a thumbs-up from the committee to America for "changing course."

The best reaction I saw to the thing was a guy who just posted this quote without comment:

"When small men cast long shadows, you know the sun is setting."
--Lao Tzu
For the truth that lies at the heart of theology is not something there to be discovered, but something, or rather someone, to whom we must surrender. The mystery of faith is not ultimately something that invites our questioning, but something that questions us.

It is a bit unsettling to realize it takes more to win a college football trophy than the Noble Peace Prize, isn't it?
Why is it that bad decisions seem to make to most interesting testimonies?

Majority of Nobel jury 'objected to Obama prize'

http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id ... _article=1

Three of the five members of the Norwegian Nobel Committee had objections to the Nobel Peace Prize being awarded to US President Barack Obama, the Norwegian tabloid Verdens Gang (VG) reported Thursday.

"VG has spoken to a number of sources who confirmed the impression that a majority of the Nobel committee, at first, had not decided to give the peace prize to Barack Obama," the newspaper said.

Somebody changed their minds eh?
