:rofl:

He was nominated less than a month after he was elected and he sure as shit didn't do anything as a senator except vote "present" so why don't you tell me why it is you think he deserves the Nobel over any of the other nominees who actually did something?

He should have respectfully declined it and let it go to someone who actually did something, but his ego...oh that mans ego

There's a shit loads of reason why he deserves it. Just because you dont agree with them doesn't mean that he doesn't deserve it. It's up to the Nobel committee to decide that. If he won it and the Nobel Committee agrees then i dont get why hate on him about it.

Come on son!

Didn't he say he didn't think he deserved to win such an award:

'To be honest, I do not feel that I deserve to be in the company of so many of the transformative figures who've been honoured by this prize.'

ego? Come on son!

My guess is that if he respectfully declined it, you would be bitching about his smugness instead

No I would have said, "well I don't like the guy but at least he had the balls to admit it wasn't his award to be had"

Probably not as polite as all that but I would have given him credit for it at least.

dont see what the problem is with the political poking - i am sure there was plenty political poking at bush during his time. i have to say though, the administration (and from what i noticed some canadians) needs some thicker skin.
