Nobel Peace Prize

Unbelievable!

I hear Barack Obama has just been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, how did that happen?

Don't get me wrong, I like him as much as the next guy but what exactly has he done, other than talk about peace!

Which, lets face it, was always gonna be one up on George 'Dubbya' Bush. He would never have let Peace break out. Still, it's gotta be said, at least you knew where ya stood with 'dubbya'. He was a REAL dumb ass yank so you could rely on him to make dumb ass decisions. Then when they would go horribly wrong, as they inevitably would, he would round 'em all up, put 'em in a field, and bomb the b*astards.

But Barack is a different kettle of fish. Refreshing, yes, and possibly his stance on foreign policy and nuclear disarmourment could bring about a change. But what has he actually done so far, other than talk about it.

All talk and no action could apply to any of our political leaders, although I would liken Gordon Brown more to George Dubbya rather than Barack, but without the bombs thank god!

Now Tony Blair would be much more of a worthy candidate. I hope your not laughing at the idea!

Think about it, whenever their is a 'skirmish' between two countries and let's take the Israel / Palestinian conflict as an example.

The world sat back as these two tussled in the sand for a bit. When Israel, 'the school bully' got the upper hand over the 'smelly kid that no one liked and had nits', or Palestinians to you and me. It was decreed that we'd all seen enough and we should really stop these two fighting.

At the mere thought that Tony Blair might be sent as 'peace envoy', the two stopped fighting and shook hands.

"Nope, no problem here" declared Israel.
"I love him like like my brother, this is what brothers do, honestly. I think he was only child so maybe he no understand" pleaded the Palestinians.
"That's right, tell him not to worry, were getting along like a Palestinian house on fire, he's no need to come!" confirmed a Jewish spokesperson

Now if that doesn't warrant a Nobel Prize, what does?

Still, in honesty, I believe the Nobel Prize should actually go to the American people for putting Barack in the White House, showing hope, courage and a need for change. They wanted to believe as we did with Tony, and are probably about to do with David.

The problem is we all keep believing and eventually our Baracks, Tonys and Davids keep turning into George Dubbyas' and Gordons'!

So what do we know....
