Friday, October 9, 2009 The Nobel Farce

By David Reagan

Once again the Norwegian Nobel Committee has surprised the world with its Peace Prize Award by granting it to President Barack Obama. Keep in mind this is the same group that gave the award to Al Gore in 2007 and Jimmy Carter in 2002.

What was Al Gore’s accomplishment? The production of a documentary film that propagandized the myth that global warming is due to carbon emissions. Big deal!

And Jimmy Carter? Well, the worst president of the 20th Century distinguished himself as a rabid anti-Semite, a vociferous America-basher, and a gushing tyrant-lover.

And then, of course, there was the worst Nobel Peace Prize of all of them — the one awarded in 1994 to the world’s leading terrorist, Yassar Arafat, a modern-day Hitler. When that occurred, I lost all respect for the Nobel Committee and their meaningless prize.

So, why would the Committee award President Obama the Peace Prize when he has been in office only nine months and has no notable accomplishments on the international scene? There are several reasons:

The President has engaged in America-bashing everywhere he has spoken in the world, as if this nation is the world’s greatest threat to peace, when, in actuality, we have always been the world’s best defender of freedom. The President has denounced the “Lone Ranger” foreign policy mentality of the Bush Administration, a foreign policy that rightfully put this nation’s interests first and successfully protected us from terrorist attacks for seven years. The President has praised the immoral values of European law and has expressed a desire to align our laws with those values. The President has committed himself to instituting domestic reforms that would undermine Capitalism and produce a mirror-image of the failed Socialist economies of Europe. The President has taken every opportunity to praise the ungodly and violent religion of Islam. The President has made it clear that he is willing to abandon Israel for the sake of “peace” in the Middle East. The President has indicated that he is willing to surrender American sovereignty to international organizations. No wonder the world is enthralled with him and cheering him. No wonder the world desires to give him encouragement.

But his day of reckoning is coming. His terrible mis-management of our economy will catch up with him as unemployment continues to mount and the dollar continues its dive in value. Most important, he is going to suffer the wrath of God on the international scene due to his mis-treatment of Israel.

In short, we are headed for disaster on both the national and international scenes, so the President had better enjoy the world’s spotlight now before all the lights go out.

The ultimate in farce indeed!!! This one is supreme!

Its important to note, that while Zero has been in office almost 9 months, nominations for the Nobel "peace" prize needed to be in by Feb 1.

He was in office 11 days.

I love a good farce. In reaction, the great Ionesco might say, “What a coincidence!”. Let’s all join in the fun and bestow some other gold-plated awards on our “Dear Leader”. In that spirit I took the hint from our friends over at Hot Air and nominated Mr. Obama for the Heisman Trophy (I’ve heard he can run like the wind):

Here are some other possibilities:

Winner of the Kentucky Derby

Mr. Universe-Flex “B”!

A CLIO Award for Best ShamWow Politician

An Oscar for Best Set Design...I loved that Greek temple motif

An Olympic Medal for Curling

A Daytime Emmy for lifetime achievement in Game Shows

A Pulitzer for successfully hypnotizing the entire press corps!

Use your imagination!

The main issue I have with this piece is that it makes the false assumption that the Nobel Peace Prize actually carries any sort of significance anymore. It hasn't for quite some time. For me personally, the Nobel Peace Prize “jumped the shark” when it first was awarded to that scumbag Yasser Arafat. Continuing on from that, it became more of a leftist “badge of approval” for most recipients after that point.

I think too many of us cling to the mistaken notiont hat the Nobel Peace Prize carries with it the type of prestige that it had when people like Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. won it.

I see no difference between 0 winning the Nobel Peace Prize and 0 winning the Presidency. In both cases he had no experience to justify either.

Yes it is a farce but it lends legitimacy in today’s bizarro world to the Obammunists who are ruining this country (and with it, the world).

This writer is correct that Obama is heading for a fall....which, sadly, will involve the lives and (already has) the fortunes of millions.

He and his fellow communists now in power in this country will not escape either the wrath of Americans or the wrath of God as they destroy this country.....but between now and then,.....how great will be the suffering! God help us all!

Due to his general interest in Indiana, he is immediately awarded the Borg Warner Trophy for winning the Indy 500. Additionally, he really pissed of the "First Lady" by sending the preceding weekend with Danica Patrick, surfing outside San Juan, PR:

Given his high level of popularity, "People" magazine awards the "World's Sexiest Man" on Zer0, which also pissed off the "First Lady". More couch time for Zer0.
