    What has he done to deserve it?? He started two wars!!!

    Wait...

    I got it! He's trying to get health care for millions. He's advocating international communication and cooperation. The horror! That pinko commie!

    ........That is what you conservatives sound like.

    I like to think that accomplishments lead to awards...I've heard some good speeches and seen some positive trends in World "perception" of Americans, but these are fickle indicators of his ability to bring peace. Everyone knows that that popularity comes and goes and when his goes will this seem like such a sure choose. (And please it will fade, everyone loved Clinton too) World opinions of someones words, nuance and style should not be the sole reason for this prize. Rather it should be given out of a sincere review of the individuals record on promoting peace.

    This act only makes a mockery out of the prize and diminishes the aura that surrounds the previous recipients.

    He didn't do nothing, oh wow he tried. I tried too and I didn't get a Nobel Peace Prize. Just give the prize to Bono, at least he's doing something about it.

    NO! What has he done?
    What has he suffered or sacrificed to better mankind?

    He is no NELSON MANDELA or MOTHER THERESA.!

    To think GHANDI was denied over and over again the Nobel peace prize and this man received one is distressing and embarrassing.

    There are people in my local community who are more honest, giving, sacrificing and worthy of this great honor.

    OK…what idiot was on duty when this decision came down the pipeline???? I ask you….

    Let’s see what he has accomplished: Peace in the Middle East…..NO…..how about bring the boys and girls home from the Middle East…..NO…… Ok how about a health plan that not only could work but also pass the senate…..NO…..ok how about…. spend tax Payers money to bail out the greedy bankers….YES…..tax payers money to bail out AIG….YES….tax payers money to bail out the auto CEO’s…..YES…..tax payers money for ACORN….YES…..tax payers money for the lazy and useless of this country….YES…..tax payers money for those who breed like rabbits…..YES…..etc…..

    And along with all those YES’s……thinks Air Force One is the new family car….or as a friend said he is acting like a pimp with a new Cadillac….

    Hell no he doesn’t deserve this award……and if the truth be told….he only received it because he is the first Black American President. Well to be totally PC…..Anglo-African….remember his Mom was white….he came from a white womb. If I where him I would say thank you but no thank you….I don’t deserve such a coveted award…wait until I have achieved something first…if I take it now I look like an idiot who is just out to fill my mantle with awards. I have come to the conclusion that Obomba is great at camp...

    European Socialists recognize a fellow Socialist who is the driving force of bringing the US to its knees.

    He should apply that $1.4 million, after only 2 weeks in office with ZERO accomplishments 9 months later, toward all of the debt he has gotten us into.

    If only he would...let's not hold our breath....that'll never happen. But hey, his wife did buy a new "COACH" purse as the rest of us are struggling financially. Also, he had a basketball tournament in the white house. It must be refreshing to want to play so much by running here and there on talk shows, playing basketball in the white house with some political buddies, accepting the Peace Prize with the check even though he claims it's going to charity. How will we ever really know? Man, this guy has the best life, doesn't he?

    people who think that President Obama has done nothing to win such award fail to realize that he has greatly improved America's image internationally.Of course most of such people do not travel outside this country and so they'll never figure it out.When wii all these people start using their own God given brains and stop listening to Beck or Rush who even now declares his support for the Taliban?

    What the SOB DID do, was to sell out the labor of the American People to the International Banksters under the guise of 'helping the people'. THAT'S what he did!

    Who got first dibbs on those tens of Trillions? Goldman-Sachs, J.P. Morgan, CitiBank, AIG, et al. The people will only get their hands on the bulk of it after prices shoot through the roof and it hasn't got hardly any purchasing power left.
