I think they gave it to him as a consolation prize for not getting the Olympics.

He's obviously struggling enough with Afghanistan as it is, whether he
put himself in that position or not. And now this.

If it were me, that phone would have been in a thousand pieces after that call.

he can't let the fact he won this farce of an award hamstring his actions. he still needs to do what's best for america, which so far i don't believe he's done. any decision on afganistan is still weeks away, which imo indicates weakness on his part, and a willingness to listen to too many people. you'd think he'd have had some ideas in mind already in that regard. if he still intends to do what needs to be done there, then he needs to put in place any and everything necessary to get things headed back in the right direction, so that it can end that much more quickly. it's dragged on too long. yeah, he inherited one hell of a mess, but it's a job he sought knowing what was ahead.

If it were up to me, we as Americans would make it crystal clear our criticism
and focus is all on the Nobel Prize Committee and we don't hold this as a negative towards the President.

But unfortunately that didn't happen.
The vibe had too much of the "he brought this on to himself" feel for my taste.

You must be kid'n. If Betty Crocker gets raped by someone white as an egg, then they are gunna find a way to link it back to Obama. It's obvious they won't work with him on anything, and then, they are still gunna say he accomplished nothing (as they openly pray for the country to pleeeeease tank.) I just think it's kind of sick that people elected a guy to be bipartisan, and then are giving a free ride to those that are fighting that bipartisan effort. Look at all the "Hi, I'm God" type Independents that voted for someone to lead a bipartisan effort. Are those Independents complaining about the fact he is the only one trying to be bipartisan?... No, of course not. After voting(especially in Indiana..thank you so much,) they've fallen asleep again.

I don't know what you been smoking, but Obama,Pelosi,Reid,Hoyer have in no way been bipartisan. There could be a fringe element of those who want the country to tank because of Obama, but they don't represent any type of respectable conservative. And that fringe is dwarfed by the "Bush Derangement Syndrome" that runs amok in media,schools and colleges!

No, Pelosi, Reid, and Hoyer aren't bipartisan. Obama can control them if he can get a reason, too, but so far nobody from an "in play" state (DEM or REP) wants to look like they're letting him accomplish something. Bush was disliked by Conservatives for what he didn't do. He was disliked by most others for what he did get done.

I'll go after him and any politician for their politics and decisions, but not for this.

Wow. I'm kinda down about this page in our history, I gotta admit.

i have never listened to glenn beck, but i can imagine, based on what i've read about him, what he would have had to say. i don't listen to any of the talking heads; they're all too tilted to the right for me. i don't watch o'reilly, or fox news for that matter...

Since Obama was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize I guess Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton aren't far behind in receiving the award.

Didn't Jesse Jackson not the owner of a wine company and the owner of the best filly since Ruffian, say he wanted to 'geld' the President? Inconvenient truth! I can put it up in video w/o subscribing to racereplays if anyone wants. And where's the pics of 'the california kid'?
