    i mean i probably shouldn't be surprised, it's not like there have been peace prize awardees that have had nothing to do with peace before (hello guy who made dynamite)

    but this doesn't help to disabuse me of the notion that the thing is just a huge popularity contest among the elite

    And I mean, to copy-paste a post from the thread about it, obama has apparently done some stuff:
    How about the $5 billion in aid he helped secure for Pakistan to rebuild their economy and help fight Islamic terrorism?

    Or the active steps he's taken to engage the Islamic world on the diplomatic front, rather than just bomb the hell out of them?

    Or all the work he started as a Senator, and has continued as President, in nuclear disarmament?

    Saying he hasn't "done anything yet" is just playing into the stupid fucking stuffed-shirt meme the GOP has been shouting from the rooftops since last year. If you don't think he's done anything, that's more indicative of your ignorance than his actions.

    B: Both Obama and the committee given it have said that it was given to celebrate what obama has already done and encourage obama to continue his peace efforts and things like continue nuclear disarmament etc.

    ...

    Wait did you just call obama an imperialist...? Wha..?

    president of the united states is practically one de facto anyway

    and that's a cute list but maybe you should try showing it to the indefinitely detained gitmo prisoners he seems so hellbent on keeping

    the man moves entirely by expediency, there's no goodwill worth mentioning there

    Look man he's involved in two wars and going to start another war in Iran. They should have given it to Ahmedinjad I mean he took a country in turmoil and now Iran is a peaceful place full of freedom.

    im not sure how quickly my interaction with someone like that would turn to violence, mostly because ive never hit anyone before in my life, but I dont doubt that it would happen. and I wouldnt be proud at all, but it would be done.

    words would be my plan but I have before experienced levels of stupidity that make me go ragedumb.

    again ive held it in check my whole life but considernig the bloodboiling ive gotten from reading articles and arguments online, I dont know what Id do in person.

    alright... Im pretty sure I wouldnt suddenly start a fight. im just not positive. Id probably just get really fucking petty, verbally.

    perhaps I can make my self look better by saying Im right now learning I would have to just look straight ahead and walk on by...

    When I first found out about the Nobel Prize being given to Obama, I initially thought, "Oh, it's probably because of his speech in Egypt a few months back, I can see that". I assumed Republicans would throw a hissy fit because...well thats what they do. But then I came here and, really guys? I mean, yea sure its a bit early but...really?

    Maybe if I act all outraged about Obama's nobel prize it will hurry this deal along and we can close this up already. :P

    McCain is an opportunist assclown, how he got a rep as being a good republican I'll never know. He got smeered in 2000 and then in 2008 not only brings on the person who smeered him, but uses his tactics.
