What Are They Smoking In Oslo?
The Wall Street Journal ^ | 10-09-09 | JOHN FUND

Posted on 10/09/2009 8:46:05 PM PDT by GOP_Lady

A prize for not being George W. Bush.

This year's awarding of the Nobel Peace Prize to President Obama can only hasten the decline in prestige of an award that has already gone to people like Yasser Arafat, UN General Secretary Kofi Annan (who presided over the Iraqi oil-for-food scam) and the fabulist Guatemalan activist Rigoberta Menchu. For this year's Nobel, the deadline was February 1, barely ten days after Mr. Obama had assumed the presidency. Though the Nobel committee of five Norwegian politicians presumably considered the evidence over the summer, it's fair to say their award represents little more than wishful thinking that Mr. Obama's diplomatic efforts will ultimately bear fruit.

I’m pretty sure that bringing together of dark and light with a yellow beer was the deciding factor in voting.

I assume the globalists extended an offer that could not be refused.

“What Are They Smoking In Olso?”

Some really good strain of plant-like substance, that, when dried thoroughly, and lit, turns into floating clouds of psychological well-being.

IMHO

I think the Committee and whole organization has been a globalist cabal from the beginning. It’s all been to further globalist goals from Nobel’s days.

It appears to be correct . . . if anyone becomes much of a success at anything . . . he’s either co-opted into the elites with total submission and accoutraments there-to.

Or, he’s bought out.

There are no other options.

I would like to think that some of God’s business people stand up to them here and there. I can’t, however, point to any, for certain.

What "decline"? It's hit bottom, with nary so much as a dead-cat bounce. It's a joke, nothing more. A sick one, at that.

Dis Yust in from: FROM THE NORVEGIAN NEWS SERVICE:

The Norvegian Royal Family and the Nobel Prize Committee have been diagnosed with

Severe Cerebral Lutefiskitis Poisoning

Usuvally duh lutefisk poison strikes Norvay and Minniesoda around St. Olaf's Day, but the if duh dainty dish ain't prepared yust right, it can make vone mighty sick fershoor. Usually this is confined to severe gastric distress rekviring many outhouse visits, but if deese bacteria develop yust right, it can make vone also real crazy in the head. The disease, known as

"Cerebral Lutefiskitis"

strikes Fjordland every once and a while in the Fall and is characterized by bizarre, inexplicable, and truly nutty behavior.

Like taking the Bergen trolley ven you live in Oslo, or giving duh Nobel money to randomly selected guys like Al Gore or Chicago street hustlers. But it could be worse. Dey could have given Obama the prize money for the Literature.
