There is a difference between thinking the Obama's Nobel Prize was premature and the vitriol . . .
. . .from the haters.

I think it is fair of anyone to believe that it is too premature to award Obama the Nobel Peace Prize, however there is a difference between folks think it was undeserved or too soon and thos who are using this occasion to attack him over it.

He did not seek this award.

1. Yep. Michael Moore already clearly demonstrated the difference between just a critic...
and those who simply can't stand Obama.

2. yup, and if one listens to the reasons by the Nobel Committee
you can see why he got it. they didn't give it to him for something he hasn't done. you may still not agree that he should have got it, but their reasons had to do with things he has done.

remember when idiots asked what Gore's work on the environment had to do with peace. and same idiots complained about Carter getting it.

3. I just felt it was too soon
and that he didn't deserve it quite yet.

I expressed that opinion many times on this board. Even congratulated President Obama a few times on the honor.

I was still called a freeper by a few people.

I guess opinions don't matter much on a discussion board unless we all agree.

Good post, btw. :thumbsup:

4. I have noticed that the haters appear to be taking a day off from DU today.
Either that, or the 8-10 of them I put on Ignore were 99% of the problem.
