How on earth did Barack obama qualify for the nobel peace price?

when he leads a nation that executes at least one person per week and is very passionate about the death penalty?





come to think of it dont you think its a pity Adolf boy missed out on the nobel peace price while osama boy must be put forward as a recipient for the price?|||He didnt...|||First, be glad the USA isn't interested in you or what you are doing.


Pray it stays that way or life could take a sudden turn for the "interesting.".





Second because hes throttling back the greatest war machine ever created in history of his own free will.


Who's going to make him if he doesn't want to ? You ? Right .


Take a gesture of peace on its face and don't call him "Boy". I don't care how you meant it. Don't do it.





Yes we have the death penalty. Every state decides for itself some do some don't.


It's not like we pick people at random to execute.|||.....How on earth did Barack Obama qualify for the Nobel peace prize?

Leviticus 18:21

Ezekiel 16:21


That you have slain My children and delivered them up, in setting them apart and causing them to pass through the fire for [your idols]?





Deuteronomy 12


30 ...be careful not to be ensnared by inquiring about their gods, saying, "How do these nations serve their gods? We will do the same."


31 You must not worship the LORD your God in their way, because in worshipping their gods, they do all kinds of detestable things the LORD hates. They even burn their sons and daughters in the fire as sacrifices to their gods.





The method is different but the result is the same - millions of God's children murdered.|||hes the first black president so he gets everything, in my opinion he is worse than GWB


at least GWB did something. Obama only won because he put the black people in awe that he was black, he won due to the dumbness of america|||The real question is what they (The Nobel Academy ) will give him if he actually does something for peace! I'm wondering if he has his appendix removed if would qualify for a Nobel in Prize in Medicine.|||Also the last nomanition for the prize had to be handed in at the end of January so that means he earned it with in how long? excatly really he did just get it because he is black.|||"Osama boy?" Yikes! Do you hear yourself? What happened to "God is Love" and "Love thy neighbor as thyself" and "judge not?"





##|||Obviously the Nobel committee had more money than with which they knew what to do.


Someone gave me a scripture for Mr. Obama, Psalms 109 verse 8.|||-hes a black president


-he gets media attention


-he stands behind a podium and says change every 5 minutes|||I thought the peace prize was for, you know, trying to prevent and stop wars, not about letting dangerous criminals live.|||When he won the Nobel peace prize I was like "What the heck? What did he do?"


I've been thinking about it and I realize he really hasn't done anything to deserve it|||That kinda reminded me of when Jethro Tull won the 1989 Grammy Award for best metal performance, beating out Metallica..|||I detect hate and intolerance, you must be religious.|||About the same way Ted and Bobby Kennedy got into Arlington Cemetery.|||his heart is in the right place, even though he is wrong about abortion and gay marriage, he should be sternly against both|||Your just jealous that you didn't win it. And it's "Prize" not price.|||Wishful thinking?|||It's all politics.|||Wrong section, but you'll get a few dozen answers anyway....|||He was on the crest of a wave.





I think it will break soon.








Apolitical.|||He got it for NOT being George Bush.|||Peace? The end is near.|||he's black





btw..what's wrong with execution?|||Are you serious? The reason he should not get the prize is because of the death penalty. I guarantee if we made a law that no person would make money from appeals and convicted criminals on death row need to pay for their food by working, these people would stop defending these wicked people. You think these defense attorneys would care. Bunch of money hungry liberal hypocrites.





The people who want them to spend life in prison should pay for them. Is it fair for the majority of tax payers who want a quick execution to put up with these liberal hypocrites? I would not mind keeping them in prison all their lives if these liberals pay the cost.|||I completely agree, giving Obama the peace prize is an offense to anyone and everyone who has ever received it; he is a hypocrite and a liar, and stands idly by whilst people are murdered in his own country by his own "judiciary".





Hopefully they will strip the prize from him.|||Obama will eventually show his true colours as the anti-christ.He really is not to be trusted, and me and all my friends think this, so dont take offense.The death penalty is dreadful and barbaric.
