We Kept No Territory...

There is, I see, one glimmer of hope that the Nobel Prize conspicuously awarded to President Obama can actually benefit American interests: if he goes to Oslo in December and makes a convincing case that the U.S. that fought two wars in Europe for peace in the last century without claiming territory; which freed the territorial Philippines and Cuba after gaining their possession; which turned Germany and Japan into allies after bombing them to submission to conclude their dynastic tendancies of WWII; is to be appreciated for its generosity to the world in war and peace, and is unique in its liberal attitude toward the sovereignty of others.

Alas, I don't think that Obama has either the mindset nor eloquence (I'm not as enamored with his verbal pabulum as others seem to be) to pull it off...

Cy Young Award?..

By the way, I figure since President Obama actually DID throw out the first pitch at the All-Star game wearing a White Sox jacket, he's a shoo-in for the American League Cy Young Award.

And, compared to the Nobel Peace Prize, he'll deserve it!

Nobel Laureate (Or Is That 'Lariat', As In Tied To a Failing Policy?)

Well, great -- that's just what we needed for President Obama: incentive to continue selling U.S. interests down the river in order to receive international accolades! He's likely to give away BOTH Jerusalem AND Afghanistan now!
