A rare picture of the Nobel committee gives us some insight as to why they choose Jimmy Carter in 2002, Al Gore a couple years back, and the "anointed one" this year!
How on earth can someone be chosen on potential as an incentive to make peace? It would be like giving someone who is thinking about making a movie the Oscar, since those who are in the movie business already don't need the incentive! Next he'll receive the Cy Young award since he has been to a ballpark and threw out the first pitch, badly as it bounced to the plate, but why not, it's an incentive to be better the next time. What did he receive it for? The beer summit? Because he isn't George Bush (and isn't that why each of these idiots received the award)? Read Atlas Shrugged, all the signs are there (there are some even trying to make the "revelation - ends of times - antichrist" argument, but I don't want to go there, nor believe it) and it's time for all of us to get the "Galt" out of here!
On 10/9, the Libertarian party issued the following press release about President Obama's Nobel Prize:
The Libertarian Party today suggested that, in the future, the announcement date every year for Nobel Prizes be moved to April 1.
"Unlike the gullible people who listened to The War of the Worlds radio broadcast in 1938 and thought Martians really were attacking the United States, when I heard this morning that Barack Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize, I changed the channel in disbelief. But, the same thing was being said in multiple places," Libertarian National Committee Chairman William Redpath said.
"The gravity of the Nobel awards has not been augmented by some of their recent selections, including today's announcement, last year's award of the Economics prize to Paul Krugman, or the 2007 Peace Prize to Al Gore, whose global warming theories he will not defend in open debate. Maybe an early Springtime announcement date would be more appropriate."
Redpath continued, "I didn't know that it was the role of the Nobel Peace Prize Committee to be handicapping the future performance of individuals and organizations. Nonetheless, we congratulate President Obama on his award and hope that three-and-a-quarter or seven-and-a-quarter years from now the Nobel Peace Prize Committee will be seen as prescient.
"President Obama will best fulfill the promise of peace that the Nobel Committee apparently sees in him by not trying to cure all the ills of the world, but by working to make the United States an example for the other nations of the world through implementation of a Libertarian foreign policy--military non-interventionism combined with free trade policies in fact, and not just in rhetoric. With those guiding principles, the world will be a freer, safer and more prosperous planet at the conclusion of the Obama Administration."
