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:

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:

It is a bit unsettling to realize it takes more to win a college football trophy than the Noble Peace Prize, isn't it?

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.
