Barack Obama's peace prize starts a fight

October 10, 2009

Gasps echoed through the Nobel Hall in Oslo yesterday as Barack Obama was unveiled as the winner of the 2009 Peace Prize, sparking a global outpouring of incredulity and praise in unequal measure.

Mr Obama was sound asleep in the White House when the Norwegian Nobel Committee made the shock announcement. It said that he was being honoured for his “extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and co-operation between peoples”.

In a clear swipe at his predecessor, George W. Bush, the committee praised the “change in the international climate” that the President had brought, along with his cherished goal of ridding the world of nuclear weapons.

“Only very rarely has a person to the same extent as Obama captured the world's attention and given its people hope for a better future,” it added.

International reaction ranged from delight to disbelief. The former winners Kofi Annan and Desmond Tutu voiced praise, the latter lauding the Nobel Committee’s “surprising but imaginative choice”.

Lech Walesa is quoted in the very next paragraph.

What is the lesson of Obama? Other than the obvious fact that our teaching of history is an abysmal failure at all levels?

That even a coke head can be President with the right help from the entrenched radical left and a press that hides the facts of his life.

Matthew 24:24: For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.

Mark 13:22-23: For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall shew signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect. But take ye heed: behold, I have foretold you all things.


Is he the Antichrist? Hell no. He's a puppet. However, the Antichrist has prophets as well.

Majority of Nobel jury 'objected to Obama prize'
Oct 15 07:23 AM US/Eastern
Breitbart

Three of the five members of the Norwegian Nobel Committee had objections to the Nobel Peace Prize being awarded to US President Barack Obama, the Norwegian tabloid Verdens Gang (VG) reported Thursday.

"VG has spoken to a number of sources who confirmed the impression that a majority of the Nobel committee, at first, had not decided to give the peace prize to Barack Obama," the newspaper said.

In a surprise move last Friday, the Nobel committee attributed the Nobel Peace Prize to Obama less than nine months after he had taken office.

Looks like the Nobel committee objected to Obama getting the Nobel Peace Prize. They must be racist now.  :fuelfire:

****ing "NPP committee" asshats.

Having the courage of your convictions - irrespective of the absolutely ludicrous decision that came out of this alleged august body - is the only way to go if you have an ounce of credibility.

Why don't you turds launch yourself into a fjord somewhere and sink to the bottom with the fish shit?
