Obama's Peace Prize
I feel sorry for President Obama getting the Nobel Peace prize. How embarrassing that must be. He was nominated almost before he began his presidency. He did absolutely nothing before that, except get elected to the United States Senate.
Getting this award was not through any fault of President Obama's. It is not like he applied for it.
The award is so obviously undeserved as yet, that it is an embarrassment to him and to the Nobel Prize committee.
Getting an award based upon expectations? Please.
Poor guy. He will never live it down.

Conservative v. Liberal
Received via the Internet and worth sharing:
The Difference:
If a conservative doesn't like guns, he doesn't buy one. If a liberal doesn't like guns, then no one should have one.
If a conservative is a vegetarian, he doesn't eat meat. If a liberal is a vegetarian, he wants to ban all meat products for everyone.
If a conservative sees a foreign threat, he thinks about how to defeat it. A liberal wonders how to surrender gracefully and still look good.
If a conservative is homosexual, he quietly enjoys his life. If a liberal is homosexual, he loudly demands legislated respect.
If a black man or a Hispanic is conservative, he sees himself as independently successful. His liberal counterparts see themselves as victims in need of government protection.
If a conservative is down-and-out, he thinks about how to better his situation. A liberal wonders who is going to take care of him.
If a conservative doesn't like a talk show host, he switches channels. Liberals demand that those they don't like be shut down.
If a conservative is a non-believer, he doesn't go to church. A liberal wants all churches to be silenced and God removed from public view.
If a conservative decides he needs health care, he goes about shopping for it, or chooses a job that provides it. A liberal demands that his neighbors pay for his.

ACORN Warned By Its Lawyers
This is an astounding public revelation of warnings given to ACORN over a year ago, just before the firing of the embezzler (brother of founder Wade Rathke) who had remained on the board for nearly ten years after discovery -- and cover up -- of the almost $1 million he embezzled.

ACORN Bound Over for Trial
ACORN the organization has been bound over for criminal trial in Nevada according to an Associated Press report. The charge relates to using quotas and financial incentives to register people to vote.
It is hard to tell whether the activity was intentionally wrong or whether ACORN is simply incompetently managed. In either case, it should be no candidate for government money, even if it were not a partisan organization (which in my mind should disqualify it even if it were otherwise competently and lawfully managed).

AK-47: The Great Equalizer
In India, a farmer's daughter shot and killed a terrorist who had invaded the family home and attacked the girls father. In all fairness, this young lady first whacked the terrorist with an ax before grabbing his AK-47 and killing him.
This young lady was brave in a major way and deserves all the accolades she may receive.
For our own self dense in our own homes, I believe we should have our own means of defense. It is awfully risky to do count on being able to disarm someone who enters our homes and attacks us. How many of us keeps an ax handy?
