President Obama held a news conference this morning to address his being awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. Perhaps sensing the criticisms of the far right and skepticism of some of his supporters to being awarded the honor, Obama said he was "surprised and deeply humbled" at winning the Nobel, questioned whether he even deserved the honor and said that he doesn't view the Nobel as 'recognition of (his) own accomplishments."



Keep giving us the flowerly, meaningless rhetoric, Barry. You are in the process of being exposed as the fraud that you are.
Maybe this award will take him away from wrecking the economy for a few days.
What, exactly, is the fraud, then?
Explain it fully, please.
I don't care that you hate the guy, but where's the fraud?
Come on, Sam Adams, explain yourself.
Ooh, lets lambast him because he won an award he didn't even nominate himself for! Wouldn't the Swedes be your real villains here?
The economy is so wrecked stocks are up 50% from their March levels. Now thats some economy wrecking I can get behind!
I saw the prize more as a call for a national conversation on peace.
SOCIALIST!!!
Who walks faster, The Mummy or a Zombie? And who walks faster, The Mummy, a Zombie, or Frankenstein?
Or am I off topic?
Ward,
What Mummy? The new one (CGI)? The De Niro Frankenstein was pretty quick, too.
I lost my head for a minute. Friday afternoon euphoria, I think.
Zombies are fresher, so I'm going with them being the fastest. Mind you, Mummy is lighter, no internal organs from the mummification process. Frankenstein, in the books, is pretty darn fast actually.
Dracula FTW.
