Obama Travels To Receive Nobel Peace Prize Shortly After Escalating War in Afghanistan

By Douglas V. Gibbs

Has Obama caused peace anywhere on the planet since the commencement of his presidency?

No.

In fact, the anti-war leftists are angry that Obama decided to increase the troop level in Afghanistan after three months of dithering.

The Nobel Peace Prize committee is normally critical of America, and they chose Obama because he has been as critical of the U.S. as they have been.

But would they have given him the award if they knew he would give in and send more troops to Afghanistan?

He received the Nobel Peace Prize for being charasmatic, and making a lot of promises - but his actions have not followed suit, and if able to go back to the day they voted, knowing what they know now, I don't believe Obama would have received it.

They are stuck with him now.

We can relate.
