The guy can't even claim to have done anything. That's why I am angry about this.

Send an email to him, and tell him then

818536 2009-10-10 02:34:00 I like Obama, but he has not done anything yet at home or o'seas to justify anything like a Nobel Peace prize, like all other politicians he makes good speeches. At least he is going to give to to charity (my address is ....)

What was amazing is that a few days ago two scientists now in their 60's or 70's got Nobel prizes for science. Once Japanese guy who basically invented fibre optics cable carrying data and an American guy who invented the CCD device that made early digitial cameras possible.

They both got $1.4 mill which at their age would be very nice. And I think they really deserve it for what they invented. I assume they did not hold the patents themsleves so they have not made any money out of their inventions so far.

818543 2009-10-10 11:47:00 Ok Cato, I do get your point and it is a surprise to everyone that Obama was nominated. Yes, he will have to prove he "deserves" it. We just have to give him time.

LL ;)

Thats the issue, he hasnt actually done or proved anything. And he is a politician, when have they ever kept their word?

(Yea, Im taking the mickey, Im stick in the mud today).
