He's also started a major fight for health care reform, which is critically needed by tens of millions of people in the US,
I know he has started it but I would like to see it reformed and then give him a prize.

Apparently Obama must have been nominated soon after he took office.

He intends to give the Nobel prize money to charity.

Quote
President Barack Obama will donate the $1.4 million cash award that comes with the Nobel Peace Prize to charity.

White House spokesman Robert Gibbs says it's likely that more than one charity will share the windfall.

Gibbs says the president has yet to decide which charities will benefit from the award, announced early Friday morning.

Obama won the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize on Friday for "his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples," the Norwegian Nobel Committee said, citing his outreach to the Muslim world and attempts to curb nuclear proliferation.

The stunning choice made Obama the third sitting U.S. president to win the Nobel Peace Prize and shocked Nobel observers because Obama took office less than two weeks before the Feb. 1 nomination deadline. Obama's name had been mentioned in speculation before the award but many Nobel watchers believed it was too early to award the president....

I suppose Peter's got a point, though.

The only question is: How many cocks did Obama swallow to get his "peace prize"  :squit:

Translation:

He used the race card and they were too afraid of being accused of being racist, so they decided to be PC and give him one anyway.
This might be a bit true unfortunately.   That makes them more racist imo.

It is way too early in his Presidency to give him awards like a Nobel Peace Prize.   He has not ended any wars lol.

Obama as a Nobel Prize laureate? WTF?

This is now even more ironic, (almost) 8 years later.

True. I must admit, his manner and articulation won me over. I expected big this and for him to be a good President. If I was American at the time I would have voted him in

I2 today is not i2 of yesteryear. It is a knitting circle. Those that participate be they nice or asshats know their place and the price to be there. Odeon is the overlord

.Benevolent if you toe the line.

Think it is I2 of old? Even Odeon is not so delusional as to think otherwise. He may on occasionally pretend otherwise but his base is that knitting circle.

Censoring/banning/restricting/moderating myself, Calanadale & Scrapheap were all not his finest moments.

I think he has been a decent President, from an outsider's POV. Not a Nobel Prize winner, but let's face it, he was always going to be an improvement from the last one.

The last one was a pretty low benchmark.
Have you seen how the rest of the world treat him. The Russians, the Chinese,  and the Philippines?  Not a lot of respect

That's a low threshold to meet but as Al pointed out, do you see how the world has no respect for him??  and the US??

Yes, a Nobel Prize winner, without a single day of peace during his reign.

Yes it is interesting. Nobel Prizes used to be something of value.

There's a few questionable peace prize holders.
