Look at the wiki page about the Nobel Peace prize.
Ok, I looked. Obama doesn't belong on the list.
My opinion.
Seems the committee is working on "hope" criteria instead of
established work as in the past.
Maybe he'll justify it in the end, but the "rules" have certainly
changed.
BTW, John Paul II, the Polish Pope, should be on that list.
He exuded peace and love, and spread it where ever he went.
You're right he might or might not, but most presidents have
far-reaching
impact. GWB is an example. Not for good, but his impact on the world
was
large.
I don't think you're a bad person. If I implied that, it was
unintentional.
I was just kidding. I know I'm not a bad person. Mostly.

I don't know if he deserved it or not. He got it. We should be proud
that
the Nobel committee thinks so highly of him. That hasn't been case of
recent presidents.

Maybe it was really the NoBalls award.
You gotta love her logic.
"We should all be proud of nomdeplum because Harry thinks shes the
cat's meow."
That would be a worthy idea except that Harry's 'blessing' now carries
about as much weight as that of the Nobel Committee.
Got news for you - she's not a she.
Even though she says shes a she, she's a he, and not a she?
Nom-d' Plume = LOLA!

Great song...but if I was dedicating it to anyone...it'd be a long haired
freaky person......
speaking of that... these lyrics seem appropriate also...
"And the sign said long haired freaky people need not apply
So I tucked my hair up under my hat and I went in to ask him why
He said you look like a fine upstanding young man, I think you'll do
So I took off my hat I said imagine that, huh, me working for you "
Hey Don!
What are those lyrics appropriate for?
I don't think Tom meant that as a 'dedication'. When I heard these
lyrics, "...Well I'm not dumb but I can't understand
Why she walked like a woman and talked like a man...," Tom's little
equation made sense.
Here's the rest of the lyrics. You'll get the drift...
" Well we drank champagne and danced all night
Under electric candlelight
She picked me up and sat me on her knee
And said dear boy won't you come home with me
Well I'm not the world's most passionate guy
But when I looked in her eyes well I almost fell for my Lola
La-la-la-la Lola la-la-la-la Lola
Lola la-la-la-la Lola la-la-la-la Lola
I pushed her away
I walked to the door
I fell to the floor
I got down on my knees
Then I looked at her and she at me
Well that's the way that I want it to stay
And I always want it to be that way for my Lola
La-la-la-la Lola
Girls will be boys and boys will be girls
It's a mixed up muddled up shook up world except for Lola
La-la-la-la Lola
Well I left home just a week before
And I'd never ever kissed a woman before
But Lola smiled and took me by the hand
And said dear boy I'm gonna make you a man
Well I'm not the world's most masculine man
But I know what I am and I'm glad I'm a man
And so is Lola
La-la-la-la Lola la-la-la-la Lola
Lola la-la-la-la Lola la-la-la-la Lola "
