This has to be a joke.

The man that approved bombing the moon this morning... That really doesn't seem peaceful to me

The man asking for more funding for troop in the middle-east... That seems peacful

REALLY!

He was in the office 2 weeks when he got nominated for this prize... also note-worthy... hitler, stalin, and mussolini were nominated for this prize

Is that really true, were those three guys really nominated? That pretty much says it all right there.

That doesn't really tell the whole story.

Over time many individuals have become known as "Nobel Peace Prize Nominees", but this designation has no official standing.Nominations from 1901 to 1955, however, have been released in a database.When the past nominations were released it was discovered that Adolf Hitler was nominated in 1939 by Erik Brandt, a member of the Swedish Parliament. Brandt retracted the nomination after a few days.Other infamous nominees included Joseph Stalin and Benito Mussolini. However, since nomination requires only support from one qualified person, all nominations do not necessarily represent the opinion of the Nobel committee itself.

Not that I agree with Obama receiving the award (I don't) - but I'm tired of all the Hitler crap in Obama threads.

Old Man said "Regan got the Wall taken down but didn't get the Peace prize."

I've heard this statment a few times on here, and I have to say, as an outsider it sounds pretty funny.  The worker uprisings in Poland and the collapse of the Soviet Union (in the form it had at the time) in Russia, the people of East and West Berlin marching in the streets are what the rest of the world heard about. Regan was the President. He might even have had a little to do with it. I just didn't realize it was all his doing!

It went in the toliet when gore won for the enviorment, uselesssss

Z-Warrior was merely pointing out other past leaders who had been nominated.  He did not make any comparisons, just said it was also noteworthy.  I thought you were big on facts.  They were nominated, that's a fact.  You even furnished more details.  Who knows, maybe if you say please folks won't post things you don't like from now on.

Obama’s vision and work toward a world without atomic weapons

You cant unlearn technology.

Someone will always have an atomic weapon hidden somewhere. More than likely us. Just in case some country didn't follow along.

There's NO way any nuclear capable country is gona get rid of ALL their nuclear weapons willingly, there's just NO way, unless forced by threat of nuclear attack.

Sorry, I didn't mean to imply he did it all by himself.  Actually, he hired Acme construction to tear down the wall.  On a serious note, he was a major influence on the demise of the Soviet Union.  Policies enacted under his watch pretty much ruined their economy.   He didn't do it by himself, but he did help set the stage and handed them the rope.

This is a fallacy. They were shot long before. There is a BBC documentary called the Power of Nightmares that discusses the rise of the neo-con movement in this country.  CIA agents are interviewed in one part concerning an incident where Rumsfeld convinced Reagan to develop a B team to take a different view of CIA intel.  They had concluded that the USSR was toast long before Rummy ever made his illogical recommendations to Reagan who ate them up like a kid in a candy store.

Reagan was the best President in the last 50 years, maybe more. Obama is on a path to take the "Worst President Award" from Jimmy Carter and they both win a Nobel. Ha! It is always awarded to the most left socialist/communist.

Should have been awarded the Nobel Peace of Crap Award!

Well the Office of the Presidency of the United States has been degraded this year so why not the Nobel Peace Prize? I'm not the least bit surprised, are you?

Whut-evah!

And that's all I got to say about that.
