Barack Obama Nobel Peace Prize Winner Joke!

Oh Barack Obama Nobel Peace Prize Winner Joke!, or Nobel peace prize, Obama, Obama nobel prize, Obama nobel, Obama nobel peace prize joke , President Barack Obama wins the Nobel Prize? You heard it here first. In their infinite wisdom the Nobel Peace Prize Committee voted one of the more laughable awards in recent memory.
When the world is a more dangerous place and the president appears disengaged with foreign affairs, the Norwegians have done it again. First Al Gore, then Jimmy Carter, and now Barack Obama. Nobel peace prizes gone wild!
Ostensibly, the Obama Nobel Peace Prize was awarded for “extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples.” Read all about it here and here and here.
Where is the peace, Obama?
Indeed the world is a far more dangerous place since he took office. Whether that is his fault or bad luck, the facts speak for themselves.
Iran is saber-rattling again, apparently taking advantage of the young president just like the Soviet Union exploited Kennedy. North Korea is firing missiles over Japan. There is no progress in Lebanon or among the Palestinian peoples. Eastern Europe feels more threatened now, while Russia and China are emboldened.
The United States remains embroiled in two foreign wars, with a proposal on the table to deepen our involvement in the Afghanistan operation. Iraq is now peaceful but that is due to George Bush policies. Barack Obama argued for a pullout, uncaring about the bloody revolution that would have followed in Iraq.
