Like everyone else with a brain rather than sawdust in their head, my reaction to Obama being given the Nobel Peace Prize at a time when he was not ending war but actually escalating it was “What the Fuck!?!?!”
After all, the prize is meant to be awarded to people who have…
“done the most or the best work for fraternity between nations, for the abolition or reduction of standing armies and for the holding and promotion of peace congresses.”
Which sounds nothing like what Obama has done in the last four years, nor anything that he did in the lead-up to being given this shiny but apparently worthless trinket. Now, someone has finally set up a petition asking the Nobel folks to take back the prize. I would be surprised if the Nobel committee did as petitioned, but at least it’s another opportunity to let them know how stupid and corrupt they are. Hell, if – more like when – Obama decides to slaughter thousands of Iranians in order to steal their property, the Nobel bastards will probably give him another Peace Prize – and throw in the one for physics as a reward for having figured out how to use the light switch.

Because this guy…
…does not belong on the same page of history as this guy…
