^Because they think he's a big pushover. In essence, they're pretty much just using this award as a way of making him their bitch. Excuse the foul language, but it's really a big joke.
That makes no sense at all. What are you talking about? How does giving Obama a Nobel Prize "make him their bitch"?^Because they think he's a big pushover. In essence, they're pretty much just using this award as a way of making him their bitch
^ He totally predicted your post. :Dtambourine-man said:It's a European plot to obligate Obama into our socialist ways.
We're all in on it.
If I were in the White House's boiler room, I would have begun by suggesting to the president that he demur altogether. That would be the best path. Second best would be to accept it but with strings and conditions. First and foremost, I'd recommend that he does not travel to Oslo for the award ceremony next month. No doubt the image of Obama in Oslo was on this committee's mind. But Obama shouldn't indulge them. For a prize that everyone knows was not earned, he should not show up and collect.
So he could pull a Brando and send his own variant of Sacheen Littlefeather. Some virtuous no-name from some obscure corner of the globe who works every day without recognition on the issue of nuclear proliferation. Have the person say Obama sent them because he feels he didn't quite deserve this award but will accept it only in order to highlight the importance of this issue, which is why he sent them instead. That sort of thing.
Finally, and this is a real no-brainer, he has to give the money to some worthy NGO-type group.
Yahh, they loooove him(obama) because they know he dosen't have a clue what in the hell he's doing.
You think they're in love with him because he's going to be great for our country?? The US? They wanna know how he's going to be able to help their interests first and foremost. He had more 'no votes' than anybody else during his SHORT senate stay. He has no balls. He tries to just "make everyone happy"
You can't run a country with that mentallity and not expect to be taken advantage of. Not to mention besides his senate seat, he was a community organizer? He's in way over his head and he's just treading water for now. Scraping by.
The Nobel Peace Prize should be honored that a man so incredible like Barack exists for it to be given to.
Obama said he was "surprised" and "deeply humbled" by the award. He stated that he does not feel he deserved the award,[14][15] saying that he did not feel worthy of the company the award would place him in.
