Friday 6AM: . I sit here in front of my computer screen in utter shock as I read the news….Obama has won the Nobel Peace prize. So what does this say to us? It says the world at large is more socialist than I feared. It says the world community has taken a HUGE sip of the ol’ Kool Aid.
Noon: On second thought this should not come as shock to anyone. Obama has shown nothing but an uncanny knack to bend to the worlds will. He has already stood in front of the United Nations and declared that the United States is not, nor should be considered number one anymore. He has emphatically declared that he is willing to sit at the negotiating table with terrorist regimes with no preconditions.
8PM: After spending all day mulling this over I now think the Nobel Peace prize has been permanently tarnished. How can they elect a man that in 9 months has done nothing….abso-freekin-lutely zilch! Left Wing Wind Bag Michael Moore even acknowledges Obama has done nothing by stating “Congratulations President Obama…now do something.”
9PM: Research has yielded some interesting Constitutional stumbling blocks for this award. Article I, Section 9 of the US Constitution states “No Title of Nobility shall by the United States: And no Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under them, shall, without the Consent of Congress, accept of any present, Emolument, Office or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State.” The Noble Prize Committee is appointed by the Norwegian parliament this indirectly making it a “foreign state”. Now I am sure the Constitutional scholar Barack Obama will find a way around that one.
Sun 11AM: Took all day Saturday to digest this. Obama’s initial reaction was “surprised and humbled” and that he would take it as “a call to action”. Now there’s a quote! A call to action….could this spell out how he intends to deal with Afghanistan??? After all, now that the “world community” has spoken are they forecasting their expectations on him?? I now feel that yes, this was not given for anything he has done. In fact in 9 months he has done nothing internationally other than kill the missle defense system in Europe. This alone has put our own troops in danger as the following week Iran test fired a missle they claim is capable of his Israeli and US targets in the Middle East. I now firmly believe that this was awarded strictly on the basis of what the international community expects from our President the next 3 years and 3 months.
What our President should have done was gracefully turned down the honor. He could have found some way of saying that he would not let an award like this dictate his international policy and that he in fact did not have any qualifying accomplishments compared to other sin the running. He could have but that would be against his ego. He is to naïve to see what is behind this designation.
Time will tell where this leads his policies. I do know that as far as this blogger is concerned the Nobel Prize now ranks right up there with that shiny plastic ring I pulled out of a Cracker Jack box as a child.
