OSLO ? President Barack Obama won the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize on Friday in a stunning decision designed to encourage his initiatives to reduce nuclear arms, ease tensions with the Muslim world and stress diplomacy and cooperation rather than unilateralism.

I use to think a Nobel prize was a real reward until Al Gore got one. Now that Obama won one for nothing, I've completely dis-credited it as an actual "Prize." Pretty lame if you ask me.

I just threw up a little in my mouth!

Yeah, isn't that what every president for the last 30+ years has tried to do...what makes Obama so different? He hasn't done any of those things yet, and they're already giving him an award for trying. Well, hand one my way because I "try" to do good things everyday too Big Smile

I know, I know, I'm not saying it was the most well thought out decision ever made... just answering OP's question. Wink

I know sweetie, that just hit my hot button this morning since it was the first thing I heard on the news when I woke up I need some hot chocolate.

Ick!

Absurd. The Nobel Peace Prize is a joke, especially because they gave it to Jimmy Carter as well as Al Gore.

Stephanie586 · October 2009

I am not sure how you can give a president from a country at war a "peace" prize. Oxymoron?

I am an Obama supporter through and through but I agree with Jennybeams. every president is trying to accomplish this. I think he is going to be a great leader but to win the nobel prize when he hasn't really had the time to prove anything yet is kinda weird.
