Nobel CHEESE Prize!!
OK!! I had an extended break from the blog...and in that time Facebook had become my "sounding board" for shit that pissed me off!!! Well, I fretted over whether I should write about this over the last couple days....and I decided...why the hell am I worried about it? It is MY blog right??? As the song says "take me as I am".....so this would be your call to rise if you don't want to hear me bitch about Obama!!!!
Now that I have gotten that out of the way, here it goes! What in the hell warrants that man (Obama) deserving the Nobel Peace Prize???? I just don't get it!!! The Norwegian Nobel Committee said they honored him "more on promise than achievement!" Well hell if that is the case every doctor in the world that is working on a cure for cancer, HIV, and third world country starvation should by all rights get a Nobel Peace Prize......Right? I mean after all they are promising (hoping) the same as Obama is to reach the end goal!! What the heck has this world come too? I want you to look at this article that lists the people that were passed over for the award.....soooooo sad to think that these people have put their blood, sweat and tears into their ACHIEVEMENTS (not the promise of) and they were passed over. These people were out doing what they do AT ground zero so to speak....actually DOING not promising a result!!! If we keep doing this crap.....people are just going to quit trying alltogether.
“The real question Americans are asking is, ‘What has President Obama actually accomplished?’ It is unfortunate that the president’s star power has outshined tireless advocates who have made real achievements working towards peace and human rights. One thing is certain – President Obama won’t be receiving any awards from Americans for job creation, fiscal responsibility, or backing up rhetoric with concrete action.”
