The think the point was, Obama is certainly not deserving of the
award because he has not done anything yet to deserve it. Maybe
someday he will be, who knows. One thing to note that most people
do not know, that while it is shocking Obama won it just 9 months
into the presidency,
the actual decision to reward him the award happened 9 days
into his presidency...How is that possible? No one will ask that question of
course. The award has been an utter joke for two
decades...past winners...Al Gore for Global warming which
has what to do with peace? Jimmy Carter who accomplished what?
Kofi Annan the great leader of the UN the most corrupt organization
on Earth and my favorite the terrorist himself, Yaser Arafat in
1994...I think the Nobal Peace prize
WASa great award, but has been deeply politicized for years
thus losing all credibility.
you evidently didn't get Michael's point... namely that by
frothing at the mouth here spouting your political opinions, which
are of no interest and of even less consequence to the VAST
MAJORITY of paid-up subscribers, you and the few others who indulge
themselves in this fashion are doing all of us a grave disservice.
I value your input regarding trading immensely. Please stick to
topics DIRECTLY related to this; we all learn from one another in
this regard. I for one have no wish to learn more about your or
anyone else's socio-political views and prejudices.
