Not just no, but hell no

In another sign of how much the planet is rejecting the US President, Obama receives one of the world's most prestigious honors.

President Barack Obama has won the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize for "his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples," the Norwegian Nobel Committee said, in an implied criticism of former resident Il DuceBag, adding “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 surprise choice of President Barack Obama for the Nobel Peace Prize drew praise from much of the world Friday even as many pointed out the youthful leader has not yet accomplished much on the world stage.

"In less than a year in office, he has transformed the way we look at ourselves and the world we live in and rekindled hope for a world at peace with itself," ElBaradei said. "He has shown an unshakable commitment to diplomacy, mutual respect and dialogue as the best means of resolving conflicts. He has reached out across divides and made clear that he sees the world as one human family, regardless of religion, race or ethnicity."

Massimo Teodori, one of Italy's leading experts of U.S. history, said the Nobel decision is a clear rejection of the "unilateral, antagonistic politics" of Obama's predecessor, George Dumbass Bush.

"The prize is well deserved after the Bush years, which had antagonized the rest of the world," Teodori said. "President Obama's policy of extending his hand has reconciled the United States with the international community.”

In Damascus, one focal point of the Obama administration's Mideast engagement, officials and analysts greeted the news of the U.S. president's Nobel Peace Prize win warmly. "We in Syria believe that Obama's initiatives have been suitable, and that Syria is now witnessing important steps to correct the relationship with the United States. I believe everyone here will be very happy for Obama."
Not surprisingly, the Hate America First crowd has a problem with this and thinks he should turn it down, whereupon they will jump all over him for dissing our allies and hating America.

The more I read about this award, the more it seems like it was given to Obama 25% because of HIS peace-brokering initiatives/impulses, and 75% because he's NOT FOLLOWING THE W/Cheney/Neo-Con BELLIGERENCE MODEL (ie; Obama did NOT start a 3rd war with Iran, as the Neo-Cons desire). Maybe that's why the Repukes are braying so much, because it's a pretty obvious slap in the face of the W regime -- this rebuke being the closest we're probably going to come to any sort of international justice (which if it existed, would be hauling W/Cheney/et al to the Hague to stand trial for war crimes).

I agree with you big em. I also think that this happening just a short time after Limpbag, FakeBeck and other idiots chortled with glee from their damp dungeons of torture loving/hate broadcasting that the world had turned down or voted against Obama with the Olympic decision - is absolutely hilarious. The timing couldn't be better for the world to say YES! to Obama. I would have loved to see them frothing at the mouth when the news came in. I'll bet they had seizures and tore their dungeons to pieces, wish I could have seen it.

This all started in 1976, when the Starland Vocal Band topped Boston, the Brothers Johnson and Wild Cherry for Best New Artist in the Grammys.

On a slightly more serious note, this could have been intended as a polite warning not to escalate militarily in Afghanistan. But I prefer to blame the Grammys.
