More On Obama's Gold Medal For Peace, With RedState.com Reaction Shotzz!
So! Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize this morning and everyone on Earth—and the moon, way 2 stick it out moon! —could not be more surprised. Look at Robert Gibbs, just cold saying "wow" on a Twitter thing belonging to CBS person Mark Knoller! And "Erick Erickson," some sort of retarded cousin of Robbie Robertson and #1 journalist on top Internet destination RedState.com is justa little caught off guard because he "did not realize the Nobel Peace Prize had an affirmative action quota for it." Someone get Erick Erickson every single gold medal from the 2016 Olympics.
Barry is the third sitting U.S. President to win the Peace Prize, the other two being Woodrow Wilson and Teddy Roosevelt, and the Nobel Committee explains his win thusly :
"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 USA is now playing a more constructive role in meeting the great climatic challenges the world is confronting."
The deadline for Nobel nominations was February 1st, which according to Republicans, who have desk calendars , is perilously close—TOO close, really—to when Obama first took office on January 20th. In fact, who's the say that February 1st is even technically after January 20th?? The European Nobel people? But after you factor in the time difference, who knows...
O, yes, today will be like 9/11 x War x Twitter for the batshit section of the Internet today.
