I won't say biggest crock of shit ever, but wtf

Just split it between all humanity if you can't decide. I don't know who'd deserve it, but I liked Mohammad Yunus a few years ago because that publicized microcredit, which is the future of development. They should have done something like that this year, just to get some good idea out there, but this prize is entirely idealess.

It's premature and its fodder for the right wing. My parents were bitching about it.

I'd be pretty pissed about it if I were Bill Clinton. Still, congrats to Obama, not sure why everybody is pissed at him for it.

People are pissed because they believe everything he says is a facade, and they are tired of other people falling for it. In addition, considering nominations were due 10 days after his inauguration, people consider the win part of some liberal agenda rather than awarding people who actually deserved the award.

Kinda like Amy Winehouse winning those Grammys a few years back because she was a crackwhore, or Sean Penn winning best actor over Mickey Rourke because he played a gay man. Those awards were won because of some liberal agenda, and the winners were not truly rewarded for their actual performance.

However, I applaud Obama for actually admitting he did not deserve the award. That just makes him more likable IMO.

I still don't understand how you can be the head of a country engaged in war and win a peace prize.

That would be like No Mercy winning the heterosexual award and eye accepting it as he's banging his FWO buddy!

Are you talking about the actual prize itself or that fact that it was awarded to Obama? The actual Nobel Peace Prize is normally really neat/awesome/great. I think they jumped the gun on giving it to O though. I heard a clip of the announcement on a radio talk show today and laughed my ass off at the reaction the people there gave when he was announced. Like they were totally appalled by it or something. Then the radio hosts went on like a 5 minute Borat voice making fun of the guy who made the announcement, pretty funny stuff.

Say what you will about Amy Winehouse, but that album she put out was pretty awesome actually.

Also, Mickey Rourke was awesome in the Wrestler and I was pissed when he lost, but I watched Milk recently and Sean Penn really puts on a hell of a performance. You can deserve an award and still be a liberal

Yeah I hate the whole Liberals=Hollywood notion, as if the difference between people like Bono and normal citizens is his politics and not the fact that he uniquely is a dope. There are plenty of liberals who hate Bono and I'm proudly one of them! But to defend movies, Hollywood writes fiction, and fiction allows the exploration of novel societal norms that the audience has no choice but to confront. If there were a movie about anarchism working (the central question of anarchy), I think it would be just as likely to win an award if it was done well. It's not that it's liberal, but that it confirms an idea can work. I don't know how many people were politically influenced by Milk, but I'm guessing it helped confirm a lot of viewers' pre-determined ideas, and hence got support.

And TGoz, the FWO's gay anal sex may have not earned us a trophy for heterosexuality, but it has dug out a nice trophy case.

Biggest fucking crock ever. They gave him the prize based on his talking about doing great things, and getting people to believe in him and whatnot? He hasn't actually done anything! Don't they know he's a politician, and therefore his entire life is based on getting as many schmucks as possible to believe he's going to do a bunch of awesome shit? Hey, you buncha dopes, next year I'm going to cure cancer, so ya know, just give me the prize now...

Who cares what a bunch of Swedes think? He didn't ask for the prize and he didn't deserve it. I'm treating this whole thing as a non-story.
