But but . . . . Obama just defeated the Moon people without losing a single casualty. Isn't that worthy enough? I mean shit, we own the moon now?!

Another once proud award trivialized to the point, it has become meaningless and insignifigant.[/quote]

I that right? I wonder when it's meaning and significance declined? I mean I look at the [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Nobel_Peace_Prize_laureates"]list of past winners[/URL], and yeah there are some questionable winners but not enough to render the entire award meaningless and insignificant. BTW, I don't think Obama deserves it.

No , Iran , Venezuala , Cuba , Russia , N. Korea .... we are just setting up a secret base on moon far Darth Vader to destroy our enemies :) . The NPP is political for the most part , i,e ; had Presdent Obama's campaigns focus been on destroying radical Islam , N. Korea ect . he would not have received the award , fair or not . I think J. Carter received his NPP 25 years after his " work " , only after he " condemmed " the Iraq war. Congrads to our President .

Re: Obama wins Nobel Peace Prize
 

Thanks for the list Saden, seems a sad list though, 108 years, we have been awarding it for striving for peace. How many were for awarded for Mid East efforts or world peace organizations. Yet we still have blood shed daily, both on the streets of our country and throughout the world. If Pres Obama is recognized for "for his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples." that is all good. But lets face it, peace in this world is as elusive as the holy grail ever was.

Re: Obama wins Nobel Peace Prize
 

While there have been MANY revered and deserving recipients. When the world's most famous terrorist won the Peace Prize, irrepairable damage was done, IMO. AND I am not surprised you do not support it.

I'm not sure what you're advocating. That Mahatma Gandhi and Dr. King shouldn't strive for peace? Or that Aung San Suu Kyi and Nelson Mandela aren't deserving of recognition? Peace might be elusive but it is better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.

Very true . Many people get the Noble Peace Prize because they will not fight for those who cannot fight for themselves , therefore leaving many to be ruled be evil dictators / warlords . I do not like war , just saying ..

I am not advocating anything, simply making a statement.

If you put it in the context that he won it with Yitzhak Rabin and Shimon Peres it doesn't seem so bad. Perhaps it's time to create a new prize that awards people we only like. Oh never mind, that's impossible because one man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter.
