That's ****ing ridiculous. Love to see the make up of the panel making the selection.

My problem with it, they gave it to him based on his promises and what he might do in the future. I find that rather premature. Maybe he will bring world peace and he'll be the best thing to happen to the world. If that happens, then sure, he deserves it. But until then, it just looks like he conned the Norwegian Nobel Committee just as much as the American people.

Hahahaha, this is the first thing I heard when I turned the TV on this morning, I shouted "WHAT THE ****" my dad came running upstairs to see what the hell was going on.

This is such a joke, Obama is a jackass that hasn't actually "changed" anything.

And so went the election that put him in office. How many times was "hope" used in the article?

I'm sure that would really boost sales of Cracker Jacks -- who doesn't want nutty, caramely popcorn with a chance to win an award that gives you $1.4 mil?

Next thing ya know, the Nobel Prize will have an official total sponsor. John Doe wins the 2010 Cracker Jack Nobel Peace Prize!
