Now I want to get this disclaimer out the way before I get started on this whee lil rant. I voted for and support our current President on most of his policies the only thing I don’t really agree with him on is raising taxes during a recession and the new healthcare they are trying to push. Anyway let us get to the point of why I created this entry today.

This morning it was announced that President Obama was the recipient of Nobel Peace Prize, the first thought that went through my head was WTF followed by WOW. After the initial shock I tried to call my brother but I guess it was too early so then I called my wife and told her since I know she doesn’t really watch the news and keep up with things. Anyway 5 minutes after getting off the phone with Tanya my brother Nate calls me back and goes WTF is going on, and how did the President win the Nobel Peace Prize.

Now people before you get angry understand where Nate and I are coming from, President Obama just got into office in January and was nominated on Feb 1st for the Nobel Peace prize. Honestly what had he done between Inauguration day and Feb 1 to be even included in the running. Yes he tried to offer an olive branch to the Middle East and bring that area back from out of turmoil but has he really accomplished anything to be awarded a Nobel Peace Prize. I honestly wanted to post my views on facebook and twitter but I was afraid it would not only start a race war but also a political war between democrats and republicans.

Now sit back and think about this we are giving an award to someone that has up till now done little to actually win it. That Ladies and Gentlemen is exactly whats wrong with this generation and the black culture today. Do nothing and win big, work hard and maybe you might get a pat on the back. Yes I know President Obama worked hard to get into the office of the President but ask yourself what did he do in his political career that has allowed him to even win the Nobel Peace Prize.
