    Just another of a long line of public recognition that serves to prove that the presidency of this country serves only to distract the people.

    Seems pre-emptive. Maybe he won for not being Bush.

    I don't think this will piss people off at all, it's more amusing.

    Maybe?

    I think its the largest part of the reason he won it but not entirely. I believe its because in international relations he's not only not Bush, but of the opposite polarity in most respects.

    I think there have been beneficial outcomes already because of this and I believe his future is bright in this arena as well. However I'm not going to sit here and say that yesterday I envisioned the President winning this award.

    I accept the reasoning for giving him the award but I also believe the reward comes with on the basis of excitement and expectations as much or even more so than from what already has been delivered.

    I will say this, I do believe many people take for granted just how much this president has changed the perception others outside of this nation have of this nation.

    I'm glad you thought it important to chime in on this one.
    look moron, where do i praise him in this post? I said that he was rewarded for his new tone. Is that praise or an acknowledgement? If the lakers were named team of of the year and I agreed with that, would that make me a laker fan?

    Face it, only someone who is in love with Obama can defend this ridiculous award. You would gladly juggle his balls in your mouth.

    It's true, it's true.

    Magic Negro had nothing to do with this award.

    at the Nobel committee, not Magic Negro.

    This is more an insult to the dubya's Reign of Error, with the Nobel showing appreciation for MN's opening to other countries, rather than dubya's black/white, " all y'all furriners" non-approach.

    If by different tone you mean stabbing our allies in the back and buddying up to dictators, then yes...
