Breaking: Obama Wins The 2009 Nobel Peace Prize
Email This Post
No, we aren’t making this up. Barack Hussein Obama has won the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize.
The Nobel Committee said he was awarded it for “his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and co-operation between peoples”. Nobel Observers were reportedly “shocked”. There were 205 nominations for this year’s prize, a record. Zimbabwe’s Prime Minister and a Chinese dissident had been big favorites.
The Nobel Peace Prize winner, chosen by a five-member committee – scores a gold medal, a diploma and 10m Swedish kronor ($1.4m). Banging! Fawneth the committee:
“Only very rarely has a person to the same extent as Obama captured the world’s attention and given its people hope for a better future,” the Norwegian committee said as the prize was announced.
“His diplomacy is founded in the concept that those who are to lead the world must do so on the basis of values and attitudes that are shared by the majority of the world’s population.”
Anyone feel like they’re living in some kind of movie? We’re bombing the moon today, you know. Nominations for this year’s Nobel prize ended February 1st of this year… which means Obama was in office a big two weeks when he was nominated. Sigh.
Update: Vote to help Obama win the Heisman Trophy. Hilarious.

What. The. Heck?
This was the first thing I heard when the radio alarm went off and I thought it was too silly/crazy to be true and I was still waking up. Then I turned on CSPAN…
It’s hilarious because part of the criteria for this award is “reducing standing army sizes”. Meanwhile, there were more active troops under Obama than there ever were under Bush.
When the committee admits in the past they awarded the Prize to Carter as a “kick in the pants” to Bush then it’s obvious that Obama didn’t really win this award, Bush won it for him!

In our morning coffee talks we realized that $1.4 million prize money is enough for The O to retire on. Hint, hint!

Nelson Mandela, Aung San Suu Kyi, Martin Luther King Jr., Mother Theresa, and Barack Obama… ‘One of these things is not like the others.’

I think its a “birther” issue. He needed more funds to fight his birth certificate (a peace of paper) and the Nobel Prize committee agreed.
For Matt: “Does one say BO?”

He’s the perfect receipent……..wants “peace at any price”, hates the country in which he lives,”has a problem with “Victory”,is basically a coward since he is a Marxist but doesn’t have the guts to admit it,just spouts the lingo……I dread to see how many white flags will be hanging out of the windows of the White House if another 9/11 occurs…..!!

He might as well win an oscar too! I am working on a screenplay just for him – The Pied Piper. Pied Piper played by Barrack Obama aka Dear Leader. The rats have been replaced by sheep.
Opening scene: B.O. the Pied Piper playing his majical flute down main street America, behind him are millions of blind sheep following happily. Closing scene: B.O. standing at the gate that leads into the slaughter house, kicking the blind sheep as they happily trot into the killing room. THE END!
