Yeah, that was my first reaction to hearing Bambi got the Nobel Peace Prize. That's right, he got it, he didn't win it. He didn't win anything. The Norwegians gave it to him, the way grade school teachers used to give an award to the slower kids in the class to encourage them to work harder In order to win something, you have to put forth a little effort. Of course, that's about all he can put forth is a little effort. He should have told them, "Thanks, but I haven't earned it", but we all know he'd never do that. His ego is too big. So he will go to Oslo and accept an award he doesn't deserve, while the rest of the world laughs at him behind his back. I wouldn't care ordinarily, but he's making us all look bad.

He should decline the award, and try to actually do his job for a change. We have young men dying every day in Afghanistan because he's sitting on his thumbs rather than send in the additional troops needed to finish the job. No, he's sending 13,000 support troops instead of the 40,000 line troops the generals have requested. They don't need paper pushers over there, they need men and women who can get the job done so all our troops can come home.
