Nobel Douche Prize 6
Blazed & Confused is a feature where I will be posting everything that is completely random. If you have any random stuff you think I should post, hit me up at neo@lonelystoner.net
I’ll admit it, I supported Barack Obama during the presidential election. Partly because John McCain and Sarah Palin were a joke, but mainly because George ‘Dubya’ Bush was such a douche.
Now, not even 10 months after taking office, President Obama has been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.
There’s one thing I don’t quite understand though:
How can somebody who is sending 21,000 more troops to Afghanistan since taking office, be awarded the Nobel Peace prize?!
President Obama himself acknowledged that while winning a prize dedicated to peace, he was commander-in-chief of a country in two wars.
Here’s what’s even more baffling. The strongest symbol of non-violence (peace) in the 20th century, Mahatma Gandhi, has never been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. Gandhi was nominated on 5 (yes five) separate occasions, including the year he was assassinated, yet he never won the award.
It makes you wonder, on what basis are these Norwegian douches making their decisions. Maybe they should rename the award the Nobel Douche Prize. The Peace part seems to have stopped being significant half a century ago.
There have been some worthy winners though. Most notably, Nelson Mandela, Desmond Tutu, the 14th Dalai Lama, Mother Theresa and Martin Luther King, Jr.
Lets consider the other 100+ winners as members of the United States of Douche.
hallelujah! I’m glad to hear that someone finally feels as I do on the subject. I was starting to think I was taking crazy pills or something.
@samantha: Stay off the pills dear. Keep it all natural – keep in ganja!!
nope, you’re not alone. in the Philippines there are hundreds who have died from the flood and massive relief operations are being done by the Red Cross– that’s a million times more worthy of the peace prize than anything this douchebag has dreamed up. Norway’s got a huge crush on Obama, and this is their way of leading him to the bedroom for a good ol’ fashioned threeway with Sweden
I think this is the first time you (like many others right now) actually care about the nobel prize..
He won the peace prize as a propaganda method to continue support even though he is deploying troops and sinking us further into debt. It looks to me like he is simply continuing the work of past presidents. Spend Spend Spend. Where is this money coming from… the future?
@Chuck: Maybe they finally got that Flux Capacitor working…!
