Why Barack Obama Richly Deserves Nobel Peace Prize
By John Lillpop Friday, October 9, 2009

Unlike most of my conservative colleagues, I am neither dismayed nor disgusted that President Barack Obama has been honored with the prestigious Nobel Peace Prize.

In my view, Obama won this award for very solid and compelling reasons including:

* He ain’t George W. Bush.
* Almost on his own, Obama ended the war on terror.
* The fact that he did so by expunging the term from the Pentagon vocabulary is irrelevant. It is the thought that counts
* Racists in the IOC denied the president the 2016 Olympics for Chicago. This sort of makes up for that bigotry.
* With his world vision and spiritual insights, Obama has seen beyond and through the “America First” mentality of General McChrystal and other right wing war mongers obsessed with winning the war in Afghanistan.
* Obama realizes that winning the mid-term elections in 2010 is far more important and morally correct and is prepared to sacrifice Afghanistan, if need be, to hold on to his majorities in Congress.
* Obama was recommended for the Prize by peace activists and world renowned humanitarians Fidel Castro, Hugo Chavez, Osama bin Laden, and Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
* Diversity is the world’s greatest strength and Obama is the first “clean and articulate” person of color to receive the Nobel honor.
* He ain’t George W. Bush.

Congratulations to our young president!

By the way, the only downside I see is that Obama may be required to produce a valid birth certificate in order to claim his prize!

I like this excerpt of the author's bio:

John W. Lillpop is a recovering liberal. “Clean and sober” since 1992 when last he voted for a Democrat. Pray for John: He lives in the San Francisco Bay Area, where people like Nancy Pelosi are actually considered normal!.

pelosi being considered normal is a scary thought.

In a nutshell, he doesn't.

There is no argument. He needs to produce one.

Good Lord, guy. Most of us have had to produce the birth certificate for much lesser jobs, reasons, clearances, etc. If this guy were vetted at all he would not have the job.

But he did produce it......It was looked at and verified. Public opinion, however, still maintains that it is fake. The courts won't even look at it again. Because it has been dealt with. Believe you me, if there was one little possiblity that it is fake, republicans (in higher up positions) would have figured it out by now.

Here we go.......

Oh Cool!!! Thanks dude. Had no idea. Last I checked (a few months back), the issue was deader than a doornail (don't ask me to explain that metaphor.....just something my Dad says). Will read later when I get home from work.......Thanks again man.

Now......off the subject so we don't dilute the thread. Plenty of opportunity to debate this when it is 'on topic'. Thanks again Satellite.
