I'll have to listen to conservative radio today.  It should be good.

"The world has him as the savior".   Really? 

If someone could please enlighten me, what has he done to deserve this award aside from sharing the same political views as those who determine the recipient?  He has given some speeches about how he wants everyone to disarm their nuclear weapons.  Has he made any progress toward this goal?  No.  Has he shown any sign of stopping Iran from developing nuclear weapons?  No.  But he's going to talk to them and ask them to do so nicely, which I suppose is peaceful.    I would think it a great honor for the nation if the man had earned this, but it is so transparently cheap and orchestrated as to border on absurd.  9 months a few speeches and zero tangible substantive results should not qualify you to be nominated let alone win.

I am now going to start my campaign to be the 2010 Nobel Peace Prize recipient:  I already have one of the two apparent criteria met:  I am not George W. Bush.

Next.. I will give a series of speeches in public places over the next year to anyone who will listen and tell them that the world needs to come together.  Our futures are interwoven.  Nobody can prop themselves up on the shoulders of others.  I hope for a day when nobody on Earth will have nuclear weapons.

I'll be waiting for my medal and my check for $1 million now guys... send it in Euros please.

Your reply confirms what I already believed to be true.  You have no substantive accomplishment you can point to in reply to my request to let me know what he has done to deserve the award.  This was an expected confirmation because the answer is nothing, yet you likely cannot be intellectually honest enough to just admit that.

[tufsu1]

The award is not being given based on any specific accomplishment (hard to do in only 8 months)...apparently it is about changing the international tone coming out of Washington, which clearly has happened.

[jtwestside]

The only thing this does is confirm how irrelevant the award is.

[Tripoli1711]

You may be right tufsu... however it confirms my earlier point made in jest.  The criteria for his winning was "He isn't George Bush".

Come to think of it, this is strikingly similar to the criteria that got him elected president in the first place.
