Peace and literature are like the affirmative action prizes compared to the other Nobels (physics, chemistry...). Other illustrious winners of the peace prize include Yasir Arafat

Hugo Chavez

What a joke.  Serious, Obama was nominated for this after only something like 2 weeks or months in office. 

Other than:

1.  Going on a world apology tour
2.  Reaching out to Iran & Hugo Chavez
3.  Giving Qaddafi's daughters 400K
4.  Telling the taliban that they can be part of the future Afghan govt.
5.  Giving a ridiculous speech at the U.N.

I have no idea what he has done to warrant this award.  But heck, Jimmy Carter, Arafat, and Al Gore got this too so he is in good company.

I don't think he's "worthy" of it.

Maybe he will in the future.

But the peace prize is for those who's actually accomplished something.

Eg, if Obama would've secured a long lasting deal with Israel-Palestine, that would've been something to consider.

But that hasn't happened.

I think Obama himself will be very low-key about it too btw.

Lech Walensa, a truly deserving, former winner, said O has not proven himself as of yet to receive such an honor

propaganda

the Nobel committee said that the honor may spur him to follow through on his promises

Kinda like giving the Heisman to someone who may be able to run fast

A far left organisation would have been salivating art the idea of giving this to a black man.

He has done some good things in my opinion but has not yet seen them through, political leftie shit, rather than rewarding someone deserving.

If he delivers then he WILL deserve it then

If O would like to improve his approval ratings

he would say, 'Look, guys, thanks...but I gotta give this back. Give me some time...I want to truly prove myself...give it to someone who has actually done something....'

A media produced president that the left side will do anything to make look good, including giving him undeserved recognition for things he has never done.  There will be more of this in the future just watch. Next thing ya know they will release a cure for AIDS and tell everyone that Obama was the sole person responsible for it.  Our country is starting to turn into a total joke.

"for his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples"

www.nobelprize.org



"The Nobel Peace Prize is an award presented to either an individual or an organization in accordance with Alfred Nobel’s living will. Alfred Nobel, creator of the five Nobel Prizes, was a Swedish inventor and industrialist. He disposed the Nobel Peace Prize in his will to be awarded to “the person who shall have done the most or the best work for fraternity between the nations, for the abolition or reduction of standing armies and for the holding and promotion of peace congresses." The Nobel Peace Prize differs from the Nobel Prizes in literature, physics, chemistry, and medicine or physiology in that it may be presented not only to individuals, but also to organizations that are actively engaged in a process or effort that intends to promote world peace. The prize can be awarded for current efforts, rather than for having accomplished a goal or resolved an issue."
