Again for my left wing friends, How does he earn the Nobel Prize when the nomination were sent in on Feb 1 and he took office on 20 January.....What did he do in the short period of time to even earn the nomination? I will be waiting for your answer but I don't think I will get one....................
Mr Obama said he doesn’t doubt there are others who may be more deserving of the Nobel Peace Prize.
He said: "It was a great surprise to me. I have no doubt that there are others who may be more deserving."
SgtRock's commentary on the President's speech is not "breaking news".
Where are the mods in this forum??

Right here...telling you that you cannot comment on issues of moderation publicly, like this. |
First you need to show where "your left wing friends" are saying he did deserve the speech. The closest you have is some one showing why the committee chose him, and even she questioned whether he was deserving. Even Obama is not making the claim he should have gotten it: Obama: I don't deserve Nobel prize | Metro.co.uk.
Now, do you care to talk about what "your left wing friends" are actually saying, or are you going to continue to make up what they are saying?

Well if he felt he did not deserve it why didn't he turn it down so they could give it to someone that did deserve it........
Why should he?
because he doesn't deserve it
2 + 2
you and he already said so yourselves
He understands the motives behind our actions in the middle east and beyond
I just find it ironic that some observers hope this will solidify international support for a war...he's receiving a Nobel "Peace" Prize. Now...I'm sorry...had this been a Bush-like award winner, the Left and media would comment on what a war monger the President is speaking of war even while accepting an honor for peace.
Also I don't understand some of the criticism. I thought a lot of people accepted the fact that Obama wanted more troops in Afghanistan before he was elected. Now they are complaining?
Yeah but the general idea of Obama's Afghanistan plan is to end the war. Of course that is debatable, but it is better than the inconclusiveness of conservative views on the war.

This is a question I have asked before. How is Obama suddenly hawkish when he ran on a platform of increased emphasis on Afghanistan?
