This country sure has a bunch of Obama-haters. Seems like “the right” isn’t happy unless he and his policies fail miserably so they can say “I told you so.”
While I am surprised that he won, people don’t have to crap all over him for winning it. It’s not like he was campaigning for the damn thing. They just gave it to him.
I’m not crapping on Obama for winning, I am crapping on the Noble committee for awarding it to him. Every time the Noble committee uses the award to purely political ends, it lessens what the award means. I also think that is really what most of the posters are doing. You can’t campaign for it, you get nominated by someone and downselected to award.
Obama even stated that he did nothing to deserve the award and that there are others more deserving.
