    I know, right? Let's give Obama a $1 million high-five for being such a popular guy. Unlike the other Nobels, which are given for a lifetime of generally indisputable high achievement in areas like physics, chemistry, and literature......

    What did he do? He's been in office for like half a year..

    And it's not like they just decided to give him this today. They actually decided to give it to him a long time ago, when he had done less (harm) to the country. What did he do to deserve a peace prize?? He hasn't even ended any wars...


    Whether you like him or not, this is completely stupid.

    I wrote this after some ignorant bitch was talking about Obama
    This was her:

    "ok but the private industry or watever wont thinkin bout that when bush was in office and when did he say he was gonna cut summer vacation and im sure milions and billions of people would like to have healthcare free like my mother and the elderly and at leasts he takin action durin the war and the only reason he has to send them over there is because bush wasnt doin anything to begin with so now obama has to finish what bush started"

    this was me:
    "Chelsea: There is no where near 1 billion people in the United states.. Health care will not be free. The government will increase taxes, like they did that the begining of this month. It will cost the US even more, and increase our debt.
    Bush did a whole lot more, but he was in office for eight years, while it's only been ~10 months for Obama.
    ... Read MoreYou don't even make sense on your point of the privately owned businesses. Many, many oil drilling companies are based half way across the world, in places like Iran and Saudi Arabia.
    I doubt any one is going to cut summer vacation for at least the next few year.
    Bush started the war, and he almost ended it. Obama hasn't done anything with the war."

    ROFL.

    I dont like Obama anymore. America has gotten no where since he became president. However he did a much better job then bush did in his last past 4 years. Please. He did not want to end the war. Mccain did not want to end the war. Yes the Iraqi war will be ended in 2010, however America will suffer more in Afghanistan. Who started the war in Afghanistan? Bush did.

    There all the same. Except Obama is obviously > Bush.

    That prize really got me off gaurd. He does not deserve it.
    Faith is an oasis in the heart which will never be reached by the caravan of thinking.

    As said before, I find this to be absolute bull. I was honestly outraged today when I was at tesco's and the TV was on and saw Obama got a nobel prize for his peace efforts.

    I now ask you, put Obama (who's been influencial and 'in favour' of peace for.... 6 months?) and Ghandhi (who spent a lifetime vouchingfor peace?) next to each other, and ask yourself if Obama really deserves it.

    Just found this, but you can't even say he got this prize for the 10 months he did in office. Nominations for the nobel prizes had to be in by February 1, less than 2 weeks after he got into office. What had he done by then??

    I'm a little confused here, is everyone mad at Obama for getting the prize? It's not like he awarded himself the prize....

    If you won prom king out of the blue at school, and everyone hated you for it, how would you feel?

    you're right, that was the nominations deadline, not when they decided who won it....

    The logic behind this (if there is any) escapes me.

    Yes, and if he won a Nobel Prize in physics, chemistry, or literature that would be strange, but he won the Nobel Peace Prize....which is unrelated to the others....

    I don't see anyone bashing Obama (plenty of other reasons to do that though, which could pop up in any Obama topic), but rather the absurdity of the Nobel Peace Prize. Personally, from here on out, I don't think I'll be seeing anybody in a different light after they do or don't receive the Prize, it doesn't seem significant anymore.

    It's still a prize for those who have achieved a great amount pertaining to that subject, something which Obama hasn't done.

    I should be nominated for best country singer in the world right now, because I plan on becoming one in 6 months.

    Uhm, that's what nobody understands...He didn't do anything.

    From reading a couple separate reports on it, it gives the impression that he got it for being a 'symbol of hope'...

    He is supposedly donating it to a charity of some sort, but it's voluntary spreading of wealth, the way it should be.

    How is that on topic?

    And no, according to our founding fathers, it is not the president's job to take care of us and make everything all better... Since when do we put our hope in Obama (which people act like he's the messiah or something coming to save us...) instead of putting our hope in the American system?
