Obama accepts Nobel, lays out stance on foreign policy
In just over 35 minutes, President Obama laid out his very personal vision of how the world works and his very public vision of foreign affairs that includes fighting just wars to win a just peace.
The president used his Nobel Peace Prize lecture as a forum to explain the Obama doctrine of foreign policy, one flexible enough to allow him to escalate the war in Afghanistan while calling for greater global cooperation in fighting poverty, global warming and advocating human rights around the world. It was part political science lesson, part sermon and part pure politics, designed to answer domestic and international critics.

Yes, Barack H Obama is a master of Doublethink. His duplicitous lies know no bounds and his deceptive tongue knows no restraints. His fawning, moronic supporter's blind devotion has no expiry date.
Here we have a "constitutional law scholar" declaring CO2 to be a deadly pollutant, installing an array of progressive, Marxist czars, expanding a "war" against 100 or so Al Qaidas without a declaration of war from Congress, a man that claims he has closed Guantanamo when it continues to operate and he simply plans to move these unfortunate souls into a different prison under "indefinite detention". How constitutional. Surely this clown would get an F on any test on the subject of the US Constitution.

I still can't believe that Obama received the Nobel Peace Prize to begin with. I mean, what has he done? Really nothing.
When you think of when the voting happened, he really didn't do a thing.

How can you have a sermon when you don't really believe in anything?

Obama get the prize for deceiving the American People. We are the only country which has a consitution that guarentees our rights and freedom from the tyranny of government. At unsuspecting numerous times Obama has been eroding our constitution. His loyalty is to Kenya and the rest of the world. His agenda shows he wants to destory the US and its freedom and rights bringing back worse than slavery; oppression by gov. control He has been personally involed in how he wants the 2010 census done. This is not the presidents area according to the constit. He wants to know where each of us are. To see what is coming if "reform" passes watch the movie,"The Pianist"(2002) and read the book, "1984" (can get them at the library or amazon). Read and weep.
He has not proved he was born in the US and is a natural born citizen. All sources say he was born in Kenya. He is not legal. Regardless he must be impeached for actions to destroy our freedom which is guarenteed. This can not progress or he will win and we will loose our freedom. It is coming.....
