Unlikely comment of the day
I assume that most of you have heard already that President Obumbler has won the Nobel Peace Prize for... well, no one can figure out what just yet - maybe just for being the anti-Bush since the Euroweenies hate Bush so much. Thanks to GamesWorldWide for dropping it into my comments (with a Hebrew link) so that I would refresh Twitter and see what's going on.I thought this comment - reported by Sky News out of London - was the most unlikely comment of the day about the 'peace prize.'
An administration official says President Obama feels "humbled" to have won the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize, Sky News reports.Yeah, right. Nothing humbles that pompous a**.
Exit question: Who is the least deserving Nobel Peace Prize winner evah: Barack Obama, Yasser Arafat or name someone else? Comments invited.
UPDATE 2:57 PM
How absurd is this selection? Obama was inaugurated on January 20, 2009. Nominations for the Nobel Peace Prize had to be presented by February 3, 2009. What did he do in TWO WEEKS that merited a Nobel Peace Prize? Replace George Bush?

Mrs. Carl's comment when I told her the news: "Is that real? I thought that was a joke. What did he do anyway?"
At HotAir.com, AllahPundit asked "Am I awake?"
When Chazal said that this world was one of lies and deceit, they said a mouthful! Humanity has become a laughingstock.
I'd love to know for what exactly the Obumbler won the Prize from anti-Israel Sweden.
There's a joke there somewhere.
We were joking last night that Ahmadinejad would be the winner. That's how little faith I have in the Nobel Peace Prize committee, even before this latest choice.
"Exit question: Who is the least deserving Nobel Peace Prize winner evah: Barack Obama, Yasser Arafat or name someone else?"
Al Gore, Desmond Tutu, Jimmy Carter?... Take your pick. I would say all the rest should return theirs in protest.
After hearing the news this morning I asked my wife to guess, who was awarded so called Peace prize, her answers (almost predictably, given the reputation of awarding committee after some of the awards) were: Abbas? No. Ahmadinejad? No, worse, Obama.
Carl - it can only be because Obama's worldview is as leftist as the Nobel Committe's members are and his award is for it and for the fact he's not Bush. The Nobel has degenerated into a political trophy prize rather than a deserved honor for someone who did great deeds to further world peace.
People aren't going to to put Obama and great deeds in the same sentence. What was the Nobel Committee thinking? Its absurd!
Exactly Carl. He replaced Bush.
Ahmadinejad? They're saving him for next year ... if he doesn't vaporize any countries!

Husain Barak fits well with Le Duc Tho, Arafat, Jimma Carda and other ilk
There's a conspiracy theory here, that the prize was given to Obumbler for to make it difficult for him to attack Iran. I don't think it holds any water, Obama doesn't intend ever to attack Iran, but still...
