Obama wins Nobel Peace Prize

That makes him the 4th US President to win the Prize and the second sitting President. I'm surprised and mildly shocked that this would come this early in his first term.

The Nobel Committee likes our socialist. What has he accomplished for world peace though? Nothing.

I don't think that the fact that he was the worst president since anyone is really relevant. All presidents, all leaders, live in their own time. Bush lived in a time of potential peace and progress and simply did not understand his role and the expected role of the US. He was/is a fool who, in most nations, would not have made village elder. I do not believe he was actually liked or admired by anyone. His cronies saw him as a meal ticket and a way of getting their extreme views onto centre stage and his supporters were people who did not understand, and still do not understand, the place and function of any society as it lives and trades with its neighbours.
Obama's main thrust seems to be in mending the bridges that bush stupidly destroyed. The bush people are totally incapable of understanding that. Just look at the comments here!

you simply just don't understand Americans! LOL George W. Bush is a beloved figure in much of southern and rural America and still is. So be scared, be very, very scared.

That's not true. He replaced a political party lead by dangerous and inept ideologues who implemented a disastrous foreign policy which jeapordized world peace for all humanity. Is the award premature? To be sure, but to say he did nothing in light of this significant accomplishment is hyperbole on your part. Bush and the Republican party was leading the United States towards fascism and Obama's leadership ended that.
 
I can't imagine Obama ever doing anything that would deserve the Nobel peace prize. Not being as bad as the people who proceeded you just doesn't cut it.

That's not true and your putting words in his mouth. He merely stated a fact. This nation is in incredibly deeps shit because of the ineptitude and incompetence of the Bush administration and those who supported him have no credibility when they criticize Obama as the supported the worst US President since Warren G. Harding who got us into the deep shit hole, in the first place, that Obama is struggling to get us out of.

That's quite simply the truth, so what's wrong with what Lo said?

And I quote from Lo, "Those who supported and encouraged bush should, for the sake of the US and its relationship with the rest of the world, keep thier mouths shut and realise their mistakes.

Obama: ""But I don't want the folks who created the mess to do a lot of talking. I want them to get out of the way so we can clean up the mess. I don't mind cleaning up after them, but don't do a lot of talking."

Please tell me Mott where I'm "putting words in his mouth" when I'm quoting him verbatim?

Winning Democratic Primary - $40,000,000
Defeating Republican Incumbants - $100,000,000
Winning Nobel Prize - $1,400,000
Watching wingnuts heads explode - priceless.

You said that he told those who criticize Obama to shut up. He did not say that. He said that those who supported Bush should shut up. There not the same so you did put words in his mouth and you did not quote him.
