I just read this on another site:
Obama got into office on January 20th, 2009.
The deadline for nomination for the Nobel Prize was Feb 1st 2009.
Obama was nominated for the award based on basically nothing... twelve days of work? And of course part of his twelve day's worth of work for the PEACE PRIZE included ordering an attack inside Pakistan fours days into his presidency. He did order the closing of Guantanamo on his first day and the end of the US torturing its prisoners but did that stuff actually happen?
Also, he's ESCALATED the war in Afghanistan. How can you win a peace prize when you're escalating war?
This whole thing is mind-boggling.
