Lets not be sentimental but he deserves it big time, the perception is changing gradually and american president isn't seen as a "WAR-LORD". He has so far shown a high degree of maturity and intelligence. |

Ehen now we have a full house MUZBO:Ofcourse you knew. I mean, youre soo smart you assume youre talking to an illeterate when refering to El-Baradei and youre surprised when I reply knowingly. This is too petty to continue. WHAT does my pic of Scofield have to do with this thread? What, you expect a real pic of me or something? Why am I not surprised this has completely derailed from the original point of the thread? I repeat: theres no point forcing people to take your opinion. If you believe in it, take it for yourself. I dont have to convince you of anything, I stand by that. |

prime minister of zimbabwe - Morgan Richard Tsvangirai. should have won that nobel peace price. obama has been in office bearly 1 year. the peace price should not have been given to a world power sitting president. i think they are biased. my own opinion. |

For God still love the world that He sent Obama! To 'Rosabelle' , Please don't be jealous of Michelle. |
Re: Obama Wins 2009 Nobel Peace Prize by MUZBO(m): 6:07pm On Oct 09, 2009 |
Rosabelle:Surprised?! Gimme a break! Who says you can't googleup things you don't know just like you googled 'low level inhibition'. You can take Obama's prize away if you want it. Petty or not I'm illiterate so don't try too hard. |

i thought they would consider Gani Fawehinmi. If likes of Yaser Arafat won, then Obama is a higher threshold |

all you cynics, I have an answer for you all but before I do that, in a few sentence list what peace initiatives or works that prof. ( mrs) mattail wangari of east africa did that gave her this same nobel prize in the past. |

Guys and gals,. must we quarrel, all the time? We don't have to resort to abuses and insults, you know. We don't. OK: the owners of the award say "this is who we want to give it to!" Shikena ko?! |

Rosabelle:Lemme answer like this: Mandela is an icon whose struggle brought hope and freedom to lots of oppressed people of colour world wide not just in S.A. Then why didn't Tsangarai win it? Please don't say its because he's not the president of the United States o! Rosabelle:Tree planting combats climate change world over. Have you been informed of the saying: act local, think global? Please be informed! Normally Im used to hearing smarter things come from you.Now thats the international recognition I'm Im so disappointed today, I'l blame it on the weather.No! Blame it on the impending lunar explosion. Were you informed? Sorry, I was busy reading newspapers. No thanks to you. |

was listening to the news today and heard a report about Obama winning the Nobel peace price and i was like wow! in continuation reports were given on criticism of the award. immediately i heard the report, i asked my this question, ' what has Obama done to merit this award ?' i wracked my barain and couldn't come up with a useful answer. give it to him, he has made some eace moves but there is nothing concrete on ground, all we have gotten from him is just talk - which he is very good at i must say. with the possibilty of been called an Obama hater, i must say that i admire him as a person abd his achievements but i do not see any basis for him to win the award - except the other nominees were just stooges with nothing better to offer. in his quest for peace, Barack Obama has not accomplished much except for a few speeches here and there. he has not mediated in any crisis or resloved conflict issues. i must say that i disagree with him winning the award. there were other nominees with concrete conflict resolutons to show. this leads me to question the criteria for such an award as this. what were the judges thinking? or have the been carried away by the "obama bug"? and for obama, what does this mean for him? what will now happen to his quest in afghanistan? will he still relaese troops into afghanistan? this all remains to be seen. lets keep our fingers crossed. |

asunaobi:And thats why I advice people to read before they answer. Im an Obama-fan, but somewhere along the line, people have to realise he's just one man. MUZBO: MUZBO:And all I can say is: another one on the loose. TEE ZERO: Ah toh. Ase it is my opinion I gave and Mr Muzbo thinks he has to contend. meanwhile you didnt think it necessary to read previous posts before jumping to the rescue of whom Im not sure. Seems your head is working on over-time today. Nothing you say makes sense bro! PS: Mr Muzbo, STOP contradicting yourself, its embarrassing |

Re: Obama Wins 2009 Nobel Peace Prize by RichyBlacK(m): 6:57pm On Oct 09, 2009 |
Today October 09, 2009 will live in glory! As a strong supporter of Obama, I am very thankful to the Nobel Committee for granting this most special award to the Great Barack Obama! Long live Obama! |

LOOLLL. OH Kay. Whatever that means lol |
Re: Obama Wins 2009 Nobel Peace Prize by MUZBO(m): 7:32pm On Oct 09, 2009 |
Rosabelle:Yeah I'm on the loose so ignorant punk nobel haters like you should watch out. Rosabelle:I'm tired of people like you saying you voiced your opinion when those same opinions were meant to sway general acceptance on a public forum. Rosabelle:Please show 1 instance where I contradicted myself and you'd have just out-smarted yourself. |
Re: Obama Wins 2009 Nobel Peace Prize by becomrich15: 7:33pm On Oct 09, 2009 |
I can tell you. Yar Adua would be the 2010 nobel peace Prize winner. If when he removes the yorubas, edo, delta and bayelsa state into benin republic. Yar adua would have won this 2009. but he was too slow to removes the yorubas, edo, delta and bayelsa state into benin republic, He need to act fast. He would win. When USSR was broken. Thier president won. Yar adua would win next year if he removes the yorubas, edo, delta and bayelsa state into benin republic, |
Re: Obama Wins 2009 Nobel Peace Prize by Rosabelle(f): 7:35pm On Oct 09, 2009 |
MUZBO:Not sure what all the rambling means but ok, whatever |
Re: Obama Wins 2009 Nobel Peace Prize by MUZBO(m): 7:47pm On Oct 09, 2009 |
Rosabelle:Of course you won't understand! Some are wise, some are otherwise. You fall with the latter. |
Re: Obama Wins 2009 Nobel Peace Prize by sodconfirm: 7:48pm On Oct 09, 2009 |

edwin101: Tsvangirai is a PUSSY ASS MAN. IN FACT, HE IS NOT A MAN. That Arrow. |
Re: Obama Wins 2009 Nobel Peace Prize by Homonide: 8:01pm On Oct 09, 2009 |
I submit without any fear of contradiction that even though President Barack Obama has made some efforts to enhance global peace, he doesn't deserve the Nobel Peace Prize. The Norwegian Nobel committee seem to have been taken in by President Obama's personality. I believe the committee should have selected someone who has made some genuine efforts to Foster Peace in the world. |
Re: Obama Wins 2009 Nobel Peace Prize by Rosabelle(f): 8:15pm On Oct 09, 2009 |
Homonide:Ah toh. Help me explain to Mr Muzbo and co. oh. Theres no beef involved, just facts. Its a little too premature and its obvious they are taken by his personality, not his achievements. |
Re: Obama Wins 2009 Nobel Peace Prize by slimes(m): 8:17pm On Oct 09, 2009 |
His achievements are in progress but this award is supposed to stand for a lifetime achievement. Obama is on seat for less than 365 days and he definitely doesn't fit in for a nomination. I would've prefered Morgan Tsvangirai who brokered a peace deal to stand in for a coalition government in Zimbabwe. The whole truth about Obama is that he speaks much and do-little. |
Re: Obama Wins 2009 Nobel Peace Prize by otokx(m): 8:31pm On Oct 09, 2009 |
This is a phenomenal mistake and itself should qualify for entry into the Guiness book of world records. |
Re: Obama Wins 2009 Nobel Peace Prize by oge4real(f): 8:50pm On Oct 09, 2009 |
Congratulations to Obama, though I think its too early for winning nobel prizes. |
Re: Obama Wins 2009 Nobel Peace Prize by Abali1(m): 8:52pm On Oct 09, 2009 |
hate or love this guy, pause and think, he whom God has raised up no man or beefing that can bring him down. |
