Saying Obama doesn't deserve the nobel peace prize means he does deserve it because it is so much CRAP.

It is like double negative.

The 39% who thought he deserved the Nobel also thought he deserved the Heisman Trophy.

Asked if they were personally glad Obama won the award

A better question to ask is; Do you believe that there are other people who deserve the Nobel Peace Prize far more than Barak Hussien Obama?

Ask that question and the response ought to be about 90% yes.

Ok,so 35%f Americans asked believe Odumbo DID NOT deserve the NPP and yet 46% of the people are glad he got it. How c someone believe both he didn’t deserve it and yet be glad he got it? How STUPID are people, anyway?

That is my argument.

Some deserving person got beat out. Someone who could have used the award to further their mission.

Hey, the Nobel committee in Oslo was merely practicing affirmative action.

I wish that henceforward in all Saturday Night Live skits depicting The One, the Obama character would wear his Nobel on a ribbon around his neck.

That’s what liberals keep telling us, that we’re mean-spirited not to be glad he got it—even if he didn’t deserve it. Just like we’re all supposed to be rooting for him to succeed (however dastardly his agenda).
