Presidential Prize

It has been announced that President Obama has been awarded this year's Nobel Prize. It is an amazing pat on the back for the new president. I'm not so sure that it is going to do much to change the minds of those that are rabid haters.

Listening to HLN, there are already people around the world screaming and acting like it is a tragic mistake. That he hasn't accomplished a thing. That it is a political move to appease the Americans. The selection committee should be tarred and feathered.

In my lifetime, I have seen one or two presidents come and go, trust me, this one is by far and away not the worst one we have had. Personally, I am still reserving comment on his job performance, as he hasn't been in office for one year yet. Nor do I think he deserves such a prize.

The Nobel committee did think he deserved this prize. It is obvious they wanted to praise his work to date, and make sure that he is encouraged to continue his effort. I was not asked to be on the selection committee. It was not my choice. But it is this years choice.

Be American people. Our President won the Nobel Peace Prize. I am proud of that.

I still remember 8 years of that Bush idiot.

Congratulations Mr. President
