The Man Who Got Screwed Out Of the Nobel Prize

[maineman]

A direct quote from Obama

snip

So today, I state clearly and with conviction America's commitment to seek the peace and security of a world without nuclear weapons. This goal will not be reached quickly - perhaps not in my lifetime. It will take patience and persistence. But now we, too, must ignore the voices who tell us that the world cannot change.

First, the United States will take concrete steps toward a world without nuclear weapons.

To put an end to Cold War thinking, we will reduce the role of nuclear weapons in our national security strategy and urge others to do the same. Make no mistake: as long as these weapons exist, we will maintain a safe, secure and effective arsenal to deter any adversary, and guarantee that defense to our allies - including the Czech Republic. But we will begin the work of reducing our arsenal.

Still think it is an OPINION Virgil?

Obama's words are his words, and I agree with every single word of his statement. The Washington Times editorial writer wrote his OPINION as to what he thought the impact of those words would be. I disagree with him...

now... again... as to the thread topic... Let me ask you to answer this simple question:

are you still trying to suggest that the Nobel Prize Committee was restricted to only looking at acheivements of the nominees that were completed prior to 1 February 2009?

you see... I always try to reply to your posts in their entirely. You, on the other hand, only chose to pick those aspects of my posts that suit YOU to reply to....so... answer the question in RED and we'll proceed.

Like I said Virgil you do not pay any attention to what Obama says - you just wave the pom poms for him like a good little liberal

What would you say if a Republican President said this? Would you support him?

Crickets still chirping.

you misunderstood me. I am fully aware that Obama has called for a nuclear free world... I applaud that. I do not remember any president before Obama that ever said such a thing... and it is clear that the Nobel Prize Committee thought it was significant as well.

Now... quit being a coward and answer this question:

That is not what you posted in post #190

No misunderstanding at all Virgil

[maineman]

yes. you do misunderstand me. Post 190 was a listing of the things that I thought distinquished Obama and why the Nobel Prize Committee picked him. The committee mentions his commitment to a nuclear free world... and that is unique in that no other president, to the best of my knowledge, has ever called for a planet free of all nuclear weapons.

Now... would you please address my question:

are you still trying to suggest that the Nobel Prize Committee was restricted to only looking at acheivements of the nominees that were completed prior to 1 February 2009?

Virgil's yapping away with six more posts and crickets are still chirping.

[maineman]

simple question red.... why not take a stab at actually answering it?

[glockmail]

Same for you maineman- answer my question.

why can't people who claim to be patriotic Americans react with pride when their president receives a prestigious award?

Could it be that their patriotism pales in comparison to their shameless partisan hackery?

methinks so.

folks in the military take an oath to defend the country from such domestic enemies.

and just a thought: you probably shouldn't bring your children into the discussion if you don't want them to become legitimate targets...

you know jeff.... like the way you have insulted MY son.

turn about will be fair play.
