It's a very sad statement about those who are objecting to our president winning the Nobel Peace Prize. Even if they disagree, why be spiteful? Obama has already done much more for global peace and unity than previous presidents did in their entire time in office. He has changed other leaders' attitudes. Chip is nuts to ask why Reagan didn't receive it. Reagan is the man who called the Soviet Union the "evil empire." That wasn't exactly good for world unity and peace, was it?

[CERCARIA]

Congratulations Mr.President for winning the 2009 Nobel Prize for Peace.

You and your administration are on the right track.

Wishing you all the best.

And the fact that you believe that it's as simple as $50 billion versus nothing, proves that you can't do basic financing, or financial accounting.

You're not even on my level; I'm playing chess, while you're still stuck playing checkers.

I'm done; respond all you want, you still haven't said anything knew.

And again, in the absence of facts to back your position, you again resort to hyperbole.

In case you missed it, the U.S. has gone through a bit of a pretty harsh recession, with the near collapse of the economy, and the coffers of nearly all states have been ravaged by it, especially California, since the tax revenues "from all those taxes", actually didn't materialize.

And again, just because you keep saying something, that the NSA doesn't even support, doesn't make it true.

try again, lol

5) With a fiscal budget of $3.4 trillion, $5 biilion to Israel, in the grand scheme of things, isn't all that much and wouldn't, in my opinion, be the trigger point to the collapse of the United States of America.

Hate to break it to you.

1)California is by far the most populous state in the Union. Having a population that large is expensive.

2)The U.S. has just seen the brunt of an economic crisis that has ravaged the budgets of near all states in the country, with California being hit the hardest.

3)Only Southern California, in the LA/San Diego basin area, is "burning".

4) The U.S. is still, by far, the most dominant economic engine on the planet.

lol

I have visited Nigeria, over the course of my life, a grand total of 4 times, once while I was too young to remember anything. In total, I have been in Nigeria for almost 5 months.

I am 22 years old.

Nigeria is my father's and my mother's country, and as their son, I am a son of Nigeria.

Still, in the context of my statement, calling Nigeria "my country", while spending half a year of my life there is not being honest to the point.

You are officially a waste of time.

enjoy yourself

[scipio2009]

lol

The facts of the situation are the facts, and the belief that you can disregard that premise, based on your religion or nationality make your opinion on any matter that much more suspect.

And the problems in Nigeria, in my opinion, aren't tied to Israel. the basic problem in the country is that, through corruption, graft and other means, the wealth of the country doesn't always reach down the citizens of the country.

[scipio2009]

And I can debate the "conversion" of Constantine, which was a far more political move than anything in his effort to consolidate his control of the Empire, till the cows come home.

[scipio2009]

The NSA report, the official report on what the actual events of the situation were, stated that the incident was an accident, which came about from the mis0identification of a U.S. ship. Those are the fact.

What does me being Catholic or Nigerian have to do with changing the way I look at the facts of the situation?

[scipio2009]

Finally, an actual stand!

It fails to acknowledge the 6 Day War, or any event after the 1940"s, but it's a start.
