the nobel committee is on crack

well today has been pretty hellish so far since someone decided to get sick and ruin the commute for everyone on the 4/5 train above 14th street today. 50 minutes underground? absurd. you can imagine how annoying it was. i was ready to start fresh and re-excite myself that the weekend was only 9 hours away, but that was also a fail. let me preface this by saying that i try not to bring up my distaste for obama on this blog, but today is an exception. in case you missed it, obama won the 2009 nobel peace prize. i know, i know, wtf, right?? it's ok, the committee awarded him for really legit reasons: 

"to encourage his initiatives on reducing nuclear arms, easing tension in the muslim world, and stress diplomacy..."

instead of giving him the peace prize for thinking of doing those things, like almost every president does, why not reward him when we see tangible evidence and results of these average presidential thoughts? obama's reaction: humbled. of course he's humbled, he didn't have to do anything to win! i'm sure there were other candidates more worthy of the prize. the end.

  1. I have this irking feeling that if John McCain or W would've won this prize you'd be singing a different tune... just sayin. Lay off the political bias bowlesy... it's bad for the blog. lylas.
