What's this myth about "disagreeing but respecting" you're promoting? Disrespect has always been part of the fabric of our national dialog when it comes to politicians. The Adams/Jefferson election was dirtier than anything you could dream of today. Amusing that you find the tone so offensive now that your boy is in charge.
Obama hasn't done anything to earn the award. He may--and I hope he does--but he hasn't done it yet. Even from the perspective of an Obama-lover like you, it's got to be like enshrining Adrian Peterson in the Hall of Fame based on his first 2 seasons. Again, even for someone like you, you have to admit it's undeserved.
And by the way, in case you missed it, one of the things I agreed with Obama on during the election was his stance on torture and Iraq withdrawl, both of which he's reversed course on. So he hasn't even improved the world peace dialog much, except for some nuclear talks. It's just horribly premature.
Give it to Bono. Bill Gates. And let the criticism begin but at least they've dedicated themselves to peace and charity.
