"While the Committee recognizes Shooter's legendary and lifelong commitment to Sour Grapes, we have chosen to give the award to Oden's Shrink. With his post count nearing a dozen, and his Sept. 2009 start date, we feel that his potential to transmit Sour Grapes throughout the interwebs -- predominantly as a member in good standing of the Blazer S2 community -- is without equal. Congratulations to all the nominees."
1. Even if you agree with this, I don't see how it is very funny.. 2. Obama will, most likely, do more good things for many many many many more people than you ever will. Suggesting you would not want a prestigious award because Obama has won it is absolutely ridiculous. It is not your views that is making me lose respect for you, it is these ridiculous statements and the way you present your views. You are the epitome of a republican I cannot stand.
Every president, by the very nature of the position, has the ability to do "good things" for lots of people. Does that qualify them all for the Nobel Peace Prize?? And even if Obama does end up doing "good things" for people someday, how does that qualify him for winning the Nobel Peace Prize NOW, before he's acomplished anything? Gee, you're breaking my heart. Where's my hanky (sniff, sniff).
Go watch that old Star Trek episode where the aliens had black skin on one side of their face and white skin on the other.
Dear lord, you just can't understand my points. This is why I have always steered clear of political arguments, they just cause me frustration and don't really serve a purpose. I do, however, enjoy a good religious debate now and then. (I would guess you're Christian, probably Catholic, could you guess that I'm an atheist?) Anyways, Yesterday was the first time I actually even posted in the OT forum, and today is my last.. At least for a while. So long, see you all in the forum where we debate the real issues of the world!
Wow. Some home runs here by Howie Carr of the Boston Herald. http://www.bostonherald.com/news/columnists/view.bg?articleid=1203781#
Those are home runs? Man, what a humor-deprived universe you and Howie Carr must live in. Not only is that a recycled joke about Bush, but it doesn't even make sense as applied to Obama. Do they even have third bases in Kenya? barfo
It's not just for Presidents. It's for people of all kinds and positions. And Obama has accomplished quite a bit in his lifetime, especially in the last year or so.
Huh? If Obama accomplished so much for world peace before he was elected President, the Nobel Committee should have given him the prize long ago. No one actually believes he has accomplished anything significant for world peace in the last year, either, but even if he had, that's irrelevant, since he was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize only 12 days after getting elected.
