For the tinfoil hat crowd, the following may prove interesting. BTW its from a Muslim based blog for whatever that may be worth:

"However, all of this is really beside the point, since it assumes that the Nobel Prize remains an "award" when in fact it is no such thing. It is actually a shrewd vehicle for influencing the power elite, and as such represents an attempt to lobby Obama and influence him over the course of his next term(s). The decsion of who gets a Nobel Peace Prize, and just as importantly who doesn't, is an explicit editorial statement. That President Bush was not awarded one* was a rebuke of the unilateral, pre-emptive, diplomacy-averse doctrine that bears his name. But with Obama, it is an attempt to shape the doctrine yet to be." - blog.beliefnet.com

All of those people, including Yassir Arafat, are more accomplished and important than a useless turd like you will ever be.

Jimmy Carter has done more unselfish acts of kindness to improve the world than any 10 Republicans you can name combined.



Al Gore won the election for the presidency. He exposed the irrefutable, indisputable, scientific fact that man-made global warming is real in an accurate, truthful, honest, and scientifically sound movie that won an Acadamy Award, and he deservedly won the Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts in bringing about international cooperation in dealing with something that is very likely to end all life on earth if nothing is done.



President Obama's efforts to close Gitmo, and reverse the horrible foreign policy of his treasonous predecessor while reaching out to other nations in an effort to repair our damaged reputation and moral standing in the world greatly increase peace in the world.


Yassir Arafat was the leader of a terrorist organization, but he's come the closest of any Palestinian leader to bringing lasting peace to that part of the world when he publicly stated that Israel had a right to exist in peace and security and he very nearly got Israel to agree to return to the 1949 armistice lines while recognizing a state of Palestine. This is the closest to true peace those people have ever been.


And you? You're just a loudmouthed douchebag with a chip on your shoulder and nothing to back it up.

I certianly would agree that it is hard to argue against the post-presidential (and vp) contributions of recent Democrats....the Carter Center, the Clinton Global Initiative, and the (Gore) Alliance for Climate Protection.

Poor Bill, the only one now without a Nobel.

Looking forward to the Bush post-presidential legacy.

It's official - - -
ESPN is reporting that President Obama watched 2 quarters of a football game and is being nominated for a Heisman Trophy.

Just a little levity folks.

Oh, and Carter is a saint! He is one of the most genuinely kind souls on the planet. Didn't like him much as a pres tho. I'm glad he's found his calling.

Carter was too nice to be president! I agree that he has done some wonderful things.

Hey, dude, we agreed on something. ;)

HALF-African American. Get it right, nimrod.
Nooooooooo!
That's not funny. He's gonna win the Heisman - just watch.

For Spexxvet, fixed if for ya dickweed. ;)

At least he is one of the few true Americans that can claim to be a true African-American.:D

That's MISTER dickweed, to you.

Not like that Panamanian, McCain.

Ok, Mr. Dickweed.


McCain is one of the few Dickweed's who are a bigger Dickweed than you. :D

I've got dickweed all over my lawn. I'm gonna have to take out the weed whacker.

Wouldn't it be meaner to call a guy a "weed-dick?"

Just sayin'

Or a Dick Wacker :blush:

Hey Spexxvet you should check out this breaking news!!!!

They only gave it to Jimmy Duncan because he's European-American. Oh, and because he's not George W. Bush. I'll be getting a Nobel soon. You? Not so soon.

I don't need one of those. We all know now, with Obama getting one, it really means nothing now.:p
