You make the call.
If the Messiah wasn't so vain, he would turn it down as an insult to his, and everyone's intelligence. He now joins Yasser Arafat, Mohamed El Baradei, Le Duc Tho, Jimmy Carter, Al Gore and the notorious Anti-Semite Mary Robinson, at the bottom of the Nobel "peace" prize barrel. A fake prize, for a fake president, for fake accomplishments.
Here is a little YouTube clip showing how a "senior White House official" calls a TV host "an a#&hole" for bursting out in laughter after hearing the news:
UPDATE: Barack Obama adviser says Sharia Law is misunderstood.
Tommy De Seno's Note: Although President Obama had only been in office for 12 days before the nominations for this year's Nobel Peace prize closed the entire process actually takes a full year. According to the official Nobel Prize Web site invitation letters are sent out in September. Every year, the Norwegian Nobel Committee sends out thousands of letters inviting a qualified and select number of people to submit their nominations for the Nobel Peace Prize. The deadline to submit nominations is February 1. -- Two hundred five names were submitted for the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize, 33 of which are organizations. A short list of nominees is prepared in February and March. The short list is subject to adviser review from March until August. At the beginning of October, the Nobel Committee chooses the Nobel Peace Prize Laureates through a majority vote. The decision is final and without appeal. The names of the Nobel Peace Prize Laureates are then announced."
Barack Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize this morning. Over the last decade the only requirement to win the prize was that the nominee had to be critical of George W. Bush (see Al Gore, Mohamed El Baradei and Jimmy Carter).
President Obama has broken new ground here. Nominations for potential winners of the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize ended on February 1. The president took office only 12 days earlier on January 20.
Let’s take a look at the president’s first 12 days in the White House according to his public schedule to see what he did to deserve a Nobel Peace Prize:
January 20: Sworn in as president. Went to a parade. Partied.
January 21: Asked bureaucrats to re-write guidelines for information requests. Held an “open house” party at the White House.
January 22: Signed Executive Orders: Executive Branch workers to take ethics pledge; re-affirmed Army Field Manual techniques for interrogations; expressed desire to close Gitmo (how’s that working out?)
January 23: Ordered the release of federal funding to pay for abortions in foreign countries. Lunch with Joe Biden; met with Tim Geithner.
January 24: Budget meeting with economic team.
January 25: Skipped church.
January 26: Gave speech about jobs and energy. Met with Hillary Clinton. Attended Geithner's swearing in ceremony.
January 27: Met with Republicans. Spoke at a clock tower in Ohio.
January 28: Economic meetings in the morning, met with Defense secretary in the afternoon.
January 29: Signed Ledbetter Bill overturning Supreme Court decision on lawsuits over wages. Party in the State Room. Met with Biden.
January 30: Met economic advisers. Gave speech on Middle Class Working Families Task Force. Met with senior enlisted military officials.
January 31: Took the day off.
February 1: Skipped church. Threw a Super Bowl party.
So there you have it. The short path to the Nobel Peace Prize: Party, go to meetings, skip church, release federal funding to pay for abortions in foreign countries, party some more.
Good grief.
Chicago is expecting snow this Sunday, making it the earliest snowfall in the area in recorded history. The mindless "global warming" cult will probably have some sort of explanation, you know... "warming actually means cooling"... that sort of thing. Bottom line? Most Americana's aren't buying it. The weather is simply refusing to play along with the scam.
UPDATE: BBC: What the hell happened to "Global Warming".
Exploiting children, and brainwashing children is the hallmark of any insecure regime bent on domination. That a media outlet would willingly play along with this type of exploitation of children is even more troubling.
Israeli-American Tycoon, Haim Saban, already owns Univision, the largest Spanish language television outlet in North America. He is the owner of iconic children's characters like Teenage Mutant Ninja turtles and Power Rangers. He also owns a controlling interest in Israel's largest communications company, Bezek, and is ranked #78 on the Forbes 400. Now Saban has set his sights on acquiring Al Jazeera, the largest and most popular Arabic language television broadcaster in the world, owned by the emirate of Qatar. If the deal goes through, it will be a first, and a huge revolution in Arab language broadcasting. It will not likely turn into Fox News overnight, but if will certainly make a difference in how the rest of world is portrayed in the Arab world.
A big congrats to Israeli scientist Ada Yonath and the Weizmann Institute in Rehovot for winning the Nobel Prize for chemistry today! The Nobel Academy pointed out that her research has led to the development of new antibiotics, "directly assisting the saving of lives and decreasing humanity's suffering". Maybe the Israel-haters should consider boycotting these antibiotics when they get sick.
As the Obama administration continues to accommodate Iran's nuclear program. A growing majority of Americans support the use of Military force to prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear arms. A full 64% do not believe that talks with Iran will lead anywhere, and even a majority of Democrats (51%), say it is more important to prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons even if it means taking military action. The all-important independent voter shares that view by a margin of 66%. Even 56% of notoriously naive US Jews support taking out Iran's nuclear program.
Only 24% of US voters say it is more important to avoid a military conflict with Iran, if it means that the country may develop nuclear weapons.
UPDATE: Obama defunds Iranian human rights group.
The new UN resolution, championed by the Obama administration, emphasizes that the exercise of the right to freedom of expression carries with it "special duties and responsibilities . . . which include taking action against anything meeting the description of negative racial and religious stereotyping. It also purports to "recognize . . . the moral and social responsibilities of the media" and supports "the media's elaboration of voluntary codes of professional ethical conduct" in relation to "combating racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance."
This new UN resolution is co-sponsored by the US and Egypt, and the language was formulated following the Danish Cartoon "crisis". The Egyptian Ambassador Hisham Badr is delighted. He praised the development by telling the Council that "freedom of expression . . . has been sometimes misused," insisting on limits consistent with the "true nature of this right" and demanding that "the media must . . . conduct . . . itself in a professional and ethical manner."
Good lord.
I love these people who can't stop talking about a disgusting incident involving Polanski 32 years ago, when in fact, an entire religion of over one billion people, namely Islam, is the biggest promoter of pedophilia on this planet right now, every day. The prophet Mohammad himself married Aisha when she was six years old and he consummated his marriage when she was nine years old. Laying the foundation for the legal justification of pedophilia in Islam to this day. Every single day brings new horror stories of the abuse of young girls from Pakistan to Saudi Arabia to Morocco, not 32 years ago in a single incident, but as an institutionalized, legalized system of abuse involving MILLIONS of little girls, right now.
Yet, the United States and every other Western country maintain positive and very lucrative relationships with these countries where pedophilia is perfectly legal, and do not say a word about it. Even Western "woman's rights" groups are outrageously silent on the matter, while whining about the Polanski incident from 32 years ago. It's really something to behold.
Good news: Jubilation in Rio de Janeiro - A beautiful people.
In the end, why would the IOC vote to hold the Olympics in a country where its President trashes his own country at every opportunity?
Most Americans say they are worried about Iran developing a nuclear weapons program, and think President Obama should be tougher on the rogue nation. In addition, a clear majority supports the use of force to prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons.
According to a new FOX News poll released Thursday, a sizable 69 percent majority of Americans thinks President Obama has not been tough enough on Iran. That includes over half of Democrats (55 percent), two-thirds of independents (67 percent) and almost all Republicans (88 percent).
Some 16 percent of Americans think the president's actions have been "about right" and hardly any -- 6 percent -- say he has been "too tough" on Iran.
Dear Olympic committee members, Below is your average day in Chicago. Don't be fooled by a shister lawyer, who also happens to be the President of the United States. Chicago is no place for the Olympic spirit:
Barack Obama's "safe school's czar" Kevin Jennings hid pedophilia from authorities. Now this is a serious matter. Unlike Polanski, Jennings is in a position of power on these types of matters, and his inexcusable actions were recent. Not only is he not sent to jail, he is rewarded by the US Government for his outrageous actions and strange beliefs. The US justice system has little to do with justice. It's far more about lawyers enriching themselves, prosecutors making names for themselves on their way to political careers, and liberal/conservative posturing. An institutionalized system of moral hazard.
UPDATE: Obama's "Safe Schools Czar" Expresses "Regret" for Not Reporting Statutory Rape. Well isn't that just dandy.
In any event, Richard Cohen has it right in today's Washington Post.
Those suddenly out for Polanski are nothing more than a primitive lynch mob.
This is a 76 year old man whose parents were murdered in the Holocaust, and whose wife and child were murdered by the Manson family. He pled guilty on a plea bargain to one count of sex with a minor. He sat 40 days in jail and was under psychiatric treatment when the publicity-crazed Judge decided to ignore the plea bargain (as the prosecutor claims). All of this for a bad mistake that Polanski made 32 years ago! The victim has repeatedly begged that the matter be dropped. Polanski has paid her a half million dollars in compensation. Polanski has had a spotless record for many decades (before and after). It is the US prosecutors who should be arrested in this case. I hope the French send in a team to extricate him from this nonsense, if the Swiss decide to embarrass themselves and play along with these pathetic US prosecutors. Apparently, US prosecutors have nothing better to do with their time.
Oh yeah, and here's an update. The key US prosecutor at the time now says that he lied about the case. Only in America does justice depend on an admitted liar.
You cannot make this stuff up. Literally, Obama cultists praying to Obama. Is there any doubt that these folks would drink the koolaid if 'The One' asks them to? We are talking about a mindboggling mental sickness.
