[QUOTE="tonyexpress, post: 616662, member: 1940"] [URL="http://www.salon.com/opinion/paglia/2009/10/14/teaparty/index.html"][U]Camille Paglia said this today[/U][/URL] "It's true he has accomplished nothing thus far and did not remotely deserve the Nobel Peace Prize, a gift carrying a terrible curse. The Nobel should have been the crown of Obama's career and not the butt of jokes. Yet the award has tangible significance insofar as Obama has endorsed the humanistic (if unrealistic) dream of a world without nuclear weapons. The lion may never lie down with the lamb, but politics will always be mired in seething, selfish squalor unless idealistic leaders appeal to our higher nature." In other words they put the cart before the horse and that's obvious to anyone without blinders on!! If Obama can bring world peace by the end of his term or make significant gains in doing so...then and only then should he be considered for the Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts!:peaceful: [/QUOTE]
