Are you people seriously complaining about Obama winning the Nobel prize?

Jesus christ, what are you doing here?

1. It's just a small handful. Not to worry.

[ellie]

10. A handful of people with big mouths

[harun]

2. The guy is planning an escalation of violence. Hypocrisy.

3. Yes they are MANY out of ignorance of what he's done already. The statements he's made in Egypt alon

...were jaw dropping.

[Windy]

4. Very true..... That was incredible

And you're right, many people have no REAL understanding of geopolitics. It is very complicated and Obama was placed directly in the middle of the biggest mess this country has ever been embroiled in upon his election. He has challenged both the Palestinian State and Isreal. He has re-started diplomatic talks with Iran. He was obviously the leader at the G-20 when watching the coverage...

I believe it is well deserved...

6. Please...You don't remember the poster on DU who said he addressed women's rights 6th.

Because he didn't mention as a top 5 priority he didn't care. We get these peopole regularly here.

[vaberella]

5. Yeah...Dems are a progressive group of non-partisan thinkers.

Or so I'm told....so to these people being glad our President won is drinking the fuckin' Kool-aid. I'm getting used to these people, becasue they are an example of why Dems get nothing done.

7. Just popped in and VERY SURPRISED by this Nobel Prize thing...FANTASTIC!

So there are people here complaining that he won? ok, wtf?!?
I have been cirtical of Obama but one thing can be said, he has certainly put an impressive foot forward in world relations. And btw, great speech to the Muslim world.

It's definitely a surprise since it seems very quick but i think its well earned.

[Lilyeye]

8. Yup. Lots of snarky remarks about him not deserving it.

[HamdenRice]

9. They're complainophiles

[Ken Burch]

11. There was maybe two or three people who may have complained

There's been nothing that's justified the bashing of progressives on DU that's been happening this morning.

[Blue_Tires]

12. i know, right? sometimes I really do miss the DU of circa 2005

more and more often this site is venturing off into some weird, uncharted alternate dimension or something...:scared:

[watercolors]

14. I miss circa 2001, many wonderful intelligent posters

and joined in a common cause.

[Kind of Blue]

13. Believe it! Nothing less than Utopia in less than one year

after 8 years of worldwide catastrophe will suffice. Just Ridiculous.

15. Only a pony will do.
