The three most vocal opponents of President Obama winning the Nobel Peace Prize were al-Qaeda, Iran, and Rush Limbaugh. What a winning team. Pretty telling Rush can agree with Osama Bin Laden before the President of the United States.
Rush says this is just evidence of a vast global left-wing conspiracy.
Yeah, having a dramatic positive impact on our international image, setting the withdraw from Iraq, working through combustible situations with Iran and North Korea without military incident, cooling our relations with Russia, working towards nuclear disarmament and peace in the Palestine area and building international support in diplomatic movements on Iran really isn't worth all that much I guess...
Not to mention being the first black President and inspiring people of every country, race, and creed around the globe.
Forget all that. Must of been his backroom leftist buddies!

President Obama For the Win
President Obama wins Nobel Peace Prize.
The Offical Nobel committee statement-
“The Norwegian Nobel Committee has decided that the Nobel Peace Prize for 2009 is to be awarded to President Barack Obama for his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples. The Committee has attached special importance to Obama’s vision of and work for a world without nuclear weapons.”
“Obama has as President created a new climate in international politics. Multilateral diplomacy has regained a central position, with emphasis on the role that the United Nations and other international institutions can play. Dialogue and negotiations are preferred as instruments for resolving even the most difficult international conflicts. The vision of a world free from nuclear arms has powerfully stimulated disarmament and arms control negotiations. Thanks to Obama’s initiative, the United States is now playing a more constructive role in meeting the great climatic challenges the world is confronting. Democracy and human rights are to be strengthened.”
“Only very rarely has a person to the same extent as Obama captured the world’s attention and given its people hope for a better future. His diplomacy is founded in the concept that those who are to lead the world must do so on the basis of values and attitudes that are shared by the majority of the world’s population,” the citation said.
“For 108 years, the Norwegian Nobel Committee has sought to stimulate precisely that international policy and those attitudes for which Obama is now the world’s leading spokesman. The Committee endorses Obama’s appeal that “Now is the time for all of us to take our share of responsibility for a global response to global challenges.”
Republicans cheered when we lost the Olympics and booed when we won the Nobel Peace Prize. I guess country only comes first when they feel like it's theirs. Real patriotic.
