			Isaac Hayes should have won before Obama.  1) He was black, 2)  He said pretty words written by someone else that gave hope to millions of horny people, 3)  Huh, I can't think of a third reason for either of them. This is just another political blowjob.

			I voted for Obama.  I like Obama.  I think it's silly that he got this prize. I think it's the Nobel people trying to nudge him towards closing Gitmo and ending Afghanistan quickly, and also snubbing Bush. |

			I'm all for that International Group Hug! I don't know how I feel about Obama getting the Nobel Peace Prize, kinda apathetic about it. I hope he gives the money to a good charity (like the deficit!) His money though, can do what he likes.

			Ah just found: Obama will travel to Oslo, Norway, in December to accept the award, including a $1.4 million prize. The White House said Obama will donate the entire amount to charity. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20091009/...us_obama_nobel

			Sort of a crosspost:  Huffpo is agreeing with me on this.  Is there a Smilie sufficiently strange for that one? {clicks Smilies}  Aw, fuggit.   Two threads to braid -- yeah, I know it takes three skeins to make a braid but work with me here...

			I would have voted for Pete Seeger. The consolation with the Obama award may be that it will incite those leftists teachers who control the education system to force our kids to sing more songs about Obama at the start of every school day.   |

			Avowed Communists killing Fascists is just one totalitarianism competing with another.  Both of 'em collectivist.  They were not antitheses, they were competitors for the hearts and minds of the tyrannical.
