okay, this one I lolled at.

+1

"Him and me, both."

I didn't even know he was nominated

Perfect Headline. Bravo.


/As an Obama supporter he does not deserve it.

Well done.

Nobel Peace Prize Godwinned.

Good play

I like Obama and I need to have someone convince me...


was the pool of candidates thin?

For once that was better than my headline.

An hour ago Fox News said Obama didn't deserve it because he supported turning the Taliban into a legitimate political party and he pals around with Oprah.

/that doesn't sound racist does it?

Like...siamese linked? Or just like, "Yo, whatup" linked?

I don't have to go to their site to see the Freeper reaction to this. A couple of friends of mine are borderline teabaggers and they're champing at the bit waiting for the political fallout.

I wonder if he'll get to speak at Arizona State now?

Damn you, ACORN! Is there no election you can't rig?

haha, and he won it for what exactly?

nothin

Nobel Prize for Giving Inspirational Speeches with the Help of a Teleprompter?

lol +1 subby, you beat foxnews to it!

Bravo, subby, bravo.

LOL

wow, has anyone received a bigger award just for being black?

I don't dislike Obama, but this makes little sense, as it's already been said in about every news story, and as it will be said in 500 more comments after me.

He hasn't done enough in office yet to warrant this.

It also ties him to Henry Kissinger. I'm not sure who is more disreputable.

He has too much on his plate to go bother picking this up

sckonkh: Perfect Headline. Bravo.


/As an Obama supporter he does not deserve it.

This.

I cant wait to listen to Rush today just to hear his head assplode.

Is this where we copy our posts from the 160+ comments redlit thread?

Okay, I'll go first. I'm pretty sure the Nobel Committee is one of the greatest IRL trolls ever, and they just did this for the lulz.

When I first heard, I thought it was a joke. Then I found out it was real, and it's still a joke.

11 days in office?

If he had any self respect, he would decline it until he actually did something to achieve peace. Somewhere.

//Thanks for not being Bush award

Brilliant headline.

Still, I have to ask: what the fark did he ever do to deserve that so soon during his presidency?

What a joke.

Oh, much better than mine.
definite lol

Oh my. Out of here before the incoming WHARRGRBL hate fest

JerseyTim: Damn you, ACORN! Is there no election you can't rig?

hahaha this is going to be an entertaining thread

Great headline subby...epic thread ahead

I've never been more excited to listen to talk radio. I don't think Obama deserves this, but just hearing Steve Malzberg's head explode live on the air will make it worth it.

OldScotch: Like...siamese linked? Or just like, "Yo, whatup" linked?

"spray 'em with the garden hose" linked

I guess you don't even need a birth certificate to win one of those things.

That headline was teh win. Good job subby.

Waited an hour for the story to go green. Headline was well worth the wait.

This should surprise no one. Obama's whole life has been an unbroken succession of rewards based on his ideals with no background of accomplishment.

You win this time subby...

On a more serious note: Getting elected whilst being black is noteworthy, but is it prize worthy?

You know, compared to people who've done stuff.

Okay, I voted for him and I think he's doing a pretty good job, especially considering the hand he was dealt, but someone should tell the Nobel people you never go full retard.

I'm a bit surprised by this award. Obama's not who I would have chosen. I don't think he's done much to deserve it.

But all of that pales in comparison to my glee at seeing right wingnut heads ASPLODE at this news!

They cheered America's loss of the Olympics. I'd bet my left nut they'll boo America's win of the Nobel Prize.

Submitted this one as well... but with much less witty headline... in fact, no wit at all if I'm honest.

/well played subby
//I LOLed

Considering the nominations were due only 3 weeks after he was sworn in, I'd say he worked really, really, really, REALLY hard for it, and his recognition for his 3 weeks of work was long overdue.

I've heard this a couple times this morning, but I think we can all agree that he deserves this for preventing Sarah Palin from ascending to the White House.

Glenn Beck should be amusing to watch on this.

Ackbarican_Idol: I didn't even know he was nominated

The nomination process is pretty informal. Usually dozens of names tossed in the hat. Not shocking that he'd be nominated by someone.

It is the peace, not the physics, so, apparently, anything goes.

This is just .... well, Huh?

I like Obama.
I respect Obama.
I would have voted for him if I was American.

But this is off the charts dumb. He hasn't done anything yet.

Are we giving awards for "hope for the future" now?
