He is neither experienced nor skilled in military. <br /><br />The Nobel Peace Prize is just a sign that leads him into more trouble. Yet he is not choosing to be given the prize, is he?<br /><br />He is indeed an American.Melvin of Quoteshttp://www.quotepotato.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17766817.post-74477628017455445872009-12-12T16:34:26.499+00:002009-12-12T16:34:26.499+00:00DBC Reed, Lehrer himself denies that story.

If he took an openly genocide supporting Nazi as a convenient running mate it was because convenience is all that mattered. If he has handed over the keys of the treasury to every wallowing pork barrelling parasite it is because he has absolutely no concept of the duty he owes his country.neil craighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09157898238945726349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17766817.post-76779185475157633402009-12-12T12:08:49.002+00:002009-12-12T12:08:49.002+00:00You are missing the best Peace Prize gag.Tom Lehre...You are missing the best Peace Prize gag.Tom Lehrer gave up recording when Henry Kissinger won the Nobel peace prize,declaring that it made political satire redundant.DBC Reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17891849727783879145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17766817.post-25284156481189217692009-12-11T22:05:46.018+00:002009-12-11T22:05:46.018+00:00yes, Obama is referrencing Orwell!

He really sounded like he was losing the will to live as he ploughed through that abysmal script - he's Blair and Clinton without the flair for lying. Yes, he 'dances with those who brung him'; he has no power base apart from his backers, nor the experience to have built a network of allies. Why so many apparently bright people should hope for him, or any other president, to 'see the light' (on whatever cause) is beyond me. I don't believe they're all liars. Maybe as Julius Caesar said when asked why the Gauls could have thought they could defeat him, when all things are considered it's down to the seemingly limitless human capacity for wishful thinking.

For Civil Rights, read healthcare. But for Vietnam, read Afghanistan.<br /><br />Where is the primary challenger to remind him that the people who voted for him were as foreign policy realist as they were economically populist, and morally and socially conservative?<br /><br />If healthcare ends up either without the Stupak Amendment (not going to happen) or without the public option (only too plausible), then, as surely as in Afghanistan, the nominee may as well have been Clinton.<br /><br />Which means that the winner may as well have been McCain.David Lindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06839882674758833524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17766817.post-5805120667553665512009-12-11T10:52:45.309+00:002009-12-11T10:52:45.309+00:00Not only that but only a few weeks ago he opposed ...Not only that but only a few weeks ago he opposed a UN resolution that would have encouraged Israel to reduce its nuclear stockpile. While at the same time, calling on Iran to reduce theirs.<br /><br />The Nobel Peace Prize is simply the European intellectual elite's way of giving Obama the green light when his administration decides the time is right to steam into Iran.Nickhttp://www.nicholasmead.comnoreply@blogger.com
