OSLO — President Barack Obama won the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize on Friday in a stunning decision designed to encourage his initiatives to reduce nuclear arms, ease tensions with the Muslim world and stress diplomacy and cooperation rather than unilateralism.

When a man takes a stand and declares his intentions, it is not necessary to wait for the ultimate conclusion to honor his intentions and ambitions.
Congratulations President Obama

The chairman of the Republican Party is contending that President Barack Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize as result of his "star power" rather than meaningful accomplishments.
Michael Steele issued a statement Friday saying, "The real question Americans are asking is, What has President Obama actually accomplished?"

Michael Steele is such a joke. What has Mr Steele accomplished, besides swallowing his pride and accepting to be the Republican Parties token Black ?
which equals that of a slimy smelly sewer rat.
Can he not say.
Congratulations Mr. President and SHUT UP for one day.
Any excuse: Conservative media attack Obama for being given Nobel Prize
Limbaugh: Nobel Committee awarded Obama to promote concept of "weakened, neutered U.S."
Malkin: "The World Apology Tour yields dividends."
Gateway Pundit: Obama awarded prize after he "bankrupted the US economy and destroyed the morale of our military."
Media figures call on Obama to turn down the Nobel Peace Prize
Glenn Beck: "Obama has to turn it down. ... It's the only way for him make a win out of this."
Beck: "Nobel Peace Prize should be turned down by Barack Obama and given ... to the Tea Party goers and the 9-12 Project."
Malkin: "If Obama had an ounce of real humility, he'd refuse to accept the award."
D.I.R.T. = Democratically Induced Republican Tantrums!
So they can go pound DIRT!
They have all jumped into the same slime pit of ca ca for a cluster ****.
Richard, You can delete this comment, it is awful I agree.
It is always easy to throw darts a what you know not of the process.
You only choose to see the who and what and refuse to see the how and why which equals who.
Sad, sad way to live.
