Well I'm not proud of our president, nor am I proud to be an american. Usually I am but lets face it people Obama does not deserve it. After being sworn in just 12 days prior to getting the nomination. He's no more worthy than Adolf Hitler....


Well said, Iceman. And whoever happens to get 'upset' by your comparison is completely clueless and still basking in Obama-la-la land.

While I'm always proud to be an American, I am NOT proud of the way this man has represented his country. Yes, the Europeans 'like' Obama. But 'like' and 'respect' are two very different things. He didn't deserve the nomination, and he sure as hell does not deserve the prize. And by awarding it to this rookie, the Nobel Prize committee has done neither him nor the citizens of the United States any favors.

A wise and frugal government, which shall leave men free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned - this is the sum of good government.
