Let me get this straight. They gave Obama the Nobel Peace Prize, and he decides to ARM libyan rebels. Of course this is after he decides to add troops in Afghanistan. That has to be a first. Arm people and send more people to war and you can win the NPP. Of course they gave it to him not because it made any sense or because he deserved it (how was he qualified again?), he got it because he was the liberals hero and him getting it would be great publicity for the NPP.

Yep, Obama will arm the Taliban but works to take away guns from the American people.

People were very emotional about Obama and refused to think critically about him (many still do this). So the Nobel Prize did diminish themselves bit when they got swept up into the mania and gave out a prize for 'hype'.

Perhaps a more modest man would have turned it down and said to give it to me if you feel the same way on my last day in office.

When Al Gore won the same prize instead of this woman:
snopes.com: Irena Sendler

I lost all respect and all interest in who wins anything to do with the Nobel organization.

His senior law enforcement official will give guns to Mexican drug cartels, but works to take guns away from the American people.
