Top 10 reasons why President Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize
Thanksgiving is almost here, and it’s time for a lighter post. Here are the “Top 10” reasons why U.S. President Barack Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize:
10. He’s about to allow Americans to travel to Cuba.
9. He won’t inflame Russia by allowing Georgia to join NATO as a full member.
8. He removed short range tactical nuclear missles from Central Europe.
7. He’s able to magnanimously rule a nation, smoke butts, parent and preserve a wonderful romance all while his Mother-in-Law lives just down the hall.
6. By sending just 60,000 additional military troops, he’s ensuring that Continental European nations don’t have to carry any more freight in Afganistan.
5. He cares so much about Europe, that he made a campaign speech in Germany during the Primaries.
4. No World Leader has ever shot three 3-pointers in a row while being covered by a former Duke athlete.
3. Because, over just a single Budweiser, he was able to broker peace between a white Police Officer and the African American Harvard Professor that the Officer arrested for “breaking into” his own house.
2. To ensure that he won’t authorize an Israeli attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities; if he did, President Obama knows the Nobel Committee would ask for his Prize back.
1. Because he’s not President George W. Bush.

I think the Nobel Prize is an honor for the President and our country. Hopefully, this means we can end the war.
