Obama, who is now escalating this war in the middle east, by sending 30,000+ more troops in to fight, will soon be accepting the Nobel Peace prize? I don't i just find that weird. feel free to discuss, or possibly turn this into one of those post a picture of ________ threads.

Yes.

I didn't read your post and I don't care.  The only logical answer to your thread-title-question is yes.

i had some witty post planned out that was going to support your opinion by sarcastically calling you racist for doubting obama and shit.
but uh.... then i read the rest of the responses, and then i almost posted a picture of seaking.
in the end, i just settled for moving this to the top with some gay-ass little speech about what i was going to do, and now my whole post has fallen to shit.

fuck.

I think its funnier that he has the lowest approval rating of anyone in the first year... and that drugs with his face on them are being sold.

My heart goes out to the soldiers that will inevitably die from his horrible decision making but I'm actually kind of relieved he's fucking up so bad, so early.  It would have been way easier if he would have just been caught with a hooker or something.   Even the people that are normally so oblivious to current events have picked up the notion that more troops=more war and war=bad so.... maybe this means we won't be burdened with a 2nd term from this ass clown.

Soooo... who's going to be the first one to call me a racist for not approving of obama???

I am in no way a supporter of this corrupt government, but...I would just like to point out that Obama himself said that he will probably choose to not serve for a 2nd term anyways.

Obama is going all in folks. This is his trump card to save everything.

1. Pull out of Afghanistan. Source http://www.nytimes.com/2009/12/09/opinion/l09afghan.html
2. Find and kill Osama. Source http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/8402138.stm
3. Pull out of Iraq. Source http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/12/06/AR2009120600735.html
4. Get jobs. Source http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/business/8402392.stm
5. Fix the economy. Source http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/12/08/AR2009120803403.html
6. Save the world. Source http://www.latimes.com/news/opinion/editorials/la-ed-epa8-2009dec08,0,1899561.story

If he pulls it all off before election time, consider him best or almost best president ever. Just killing Osama would help him a lot. I hope he does it merely cause those would be great things to see.

Not everyone who receives a Nobel Peace Prize has a clean slate. google Yasser Arafat for example.

There's a good amount of US spin on Yasser Arafat. I wouldn't really believe all that is said on him because the Israelis had a hell of an influence on what the Americans said.

It was in some CNN article, but there are so many about Obama I would have no idea how to find it again. All I remember is that there was a  quote from Obama saying he would most likely choose to not run for a second term. His reasoning seemed logical, but then again I can't remember exactly what he said. Sorry for the vagueness, maybe when I have a little more free time I'll search for it.

bullshit

im not calling bullshit on you, but bullshit on obama if he said that

This guy has the biggest ego in the world. He cares too much about his presidency and legacy to not run again. ill be very surprised if he doesnt

Maybe that's why he wouldn't run again.  Maybe he cares so much about his legacy that he doesn't want the up coming collapse of America to happen on his watch. 

All empires come to an end eventually.  Don't believe me, read a book.  Or just watch Star Wars  hahaha.

It's funny that 20 something % of americans believe he should have received the prize...hows that for the support of your countrymen, nevermind the dismal poll numbers his administration is getting these days.

well, what we're doing at the moment isnt working at all
and if we just leave, then we are basically pussies who just wasted trillions of dollars and thousands of lives for nothing. we also allow the possibility of another event like 9/11 if we just let them do as they please

so what can we do? we have to go fucking end this shit right now. it will initially suck, but when we're safe and out of this war for good, you won't be complaining

That's a really big statement, I don't think you should just write off the classic notion of history repeating itself.
