New York City agreed to pay $657 million to over 10,000 workers who said World Trade Center rescue and cleanup efforts made them sick.

AP – They flew planes during World War II but weren’t considered “real” military pilots. No flags were draped over their coffins when they died on duty. And when their service ended, they had to pay their own bus fare home.

But wait! Wasn’t Obama going to change all that? Wasn’t Obama on a path of being buddy buddy with all the world leader?

Didn’t Obama get the Nobel Peace Prize for ….. well, oh yeah…..what was that for?

And on top of that American’s don’t think he and the dem’s are up to par on national security?

I tell ya, I am just amazed……ok, not at all…..

A majority of Americans say the United States is less respected in the world than two years ago and think President Obama and other Democrats fall short of Republicans on the issue of national security, a new poll finds.

AP – Two of the oldest people in the world have died on the same day.

AP – The 97-year-old American’s memories of comrades blown away on either side of him on Iwo Jima are a world away from his vision of the island after returning to commemorate one of World War II’s fiercest battles.

Scientists working with the world’s leading authority on global warming say they sometimes faced institutional bias toward oversimplification, a Wall Street Journal examination shows.

I was under the impression that Obama was going to have all the other countries loving us. Getting rid of that “evil capitalist” look and feel that we project on the rest of the world. I mean didn’t the world hate us because of the likes of George W. Bush? Hasn’t Obama been working hard to make friends with any country that he possibly can?

In fact he has! And most of those that he tried to befriend now say he is crazy. Like Hugo Chaves, Kim Jong Il, Iran, Venezuela, Cuba…..it was all suppose to change. We were all suppose to be getting along. The world was going to love America.

Not that sane people care if the world loves us….but that is what Obama wants. Guess Al Qaeda didn’t get that memo.

He is even closing GITO. The terrorist soon won’t have any recruiting power anymore right? And we have even sent a ton of them back to the “home land”. Currently there are terrorists who have been returned to Yemen and are back fighting for Al Qaeda. You can READ THIS ARTICLE and see what I am talking about. And Yemen doesn’t even want them back.

Hilary Clinton expresses concern about Yemen -

“Obviously, we see global implications from the war in Yemen and the ongoing efforts by al-Qaeda in Yemen to use it as a base for terrorist attacks far beyond the region,” she said.

Here is a small list of returned prisoners from Guantanamo Bay -

A Yemeni, Hani Abdo Shaalan, who was released from Guantánamo in 2007, was killed in an airstrike on December 17, the Yemeni Government reported last week. The deputy head of al-Qaeda in the country is Said Ali al-Shihri, 36, who was released in 2007. Ibrahim Suleiman al-Rubaish, who was released in 2006, is a prominent ideologue featured on Yemeni al-Qaeda websites.

I really got off track there. Basically, I am just wondering why the world doesn’t love us yet? I mean President Barack Obama was suppose to bring that for us wasn’t he?

He is releasing terrorists, you would think they would be happy with him and not attacking us. Oh, maybe they will stop attacking when they move GITO to Illinois?

He is all about global warming climate change and doesn’t want to hear anything about drilling for more oil. But in efforts to win over Brazil, The Wall Street Journal reported that the Obama administration has committed up to $10 billion to Brazil’s state-owned oil company Petrobras to finance oil exploration off of Brazil’s coast.

I also posted something about it HERE.

Oh I could go on listing all the efforts Obama has made. His wanting a world love fest. The world being one big happy country.

And yet, they still come attacking us.

I honestly thought it was a joke when I heard on the radio this morning that President Barack Obama had won the Nobel Peace Prize.

I am not making that up. It is true. He won it. Stop laughing, I am not joking. No, really, I promise….he did.

Now if I could only figure out why he won it.Receives

For starters did you know this? The deadline for nominations is February 1, meaning Obama would’ve been nominated after being in office for just 11 days. How funny. Who nominated him?

One White House aide even said “It’s not April 1, is it?”.

I know what the The Norwegian Nobel Committee is saying. Things like -

for giving the world “hope for a better future” and striving for nuclear disarmament

Except for the nuclear disarmament part I guess I qualify as well. Hope, he has given the world hope. Hmmmm…..congrats.

and

his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples

Ah yes, of course. For befriending leaders like Hugo Chavez. A funny side note is that even Chavez has said that him and his buddy Castro are probably more conservative then Obama. Now that is funny.

Or maybe by “pleasantly” talking to and not being harsh to Iran’s leader Mahmoud Ahmadinejad who has now said that if Israel or the U.S. attempt to take out their nuclear powers they will unleash endless missle’s into Israel. So, we know Mr. Nobel Peace Prize won’t be doing anything there.

Not really international, but how about is terrorist buddies? Real peaceful. Oh, maybe he helped them see peace. People like Bill Ayers. Real peaceful.

and

Very rarely has a person to the same extent as Obama captured the world’s attention and given its people hope for a better future

Not much to argue there. Obama has captured the world. So well they are going behind our backs now and discussing not using the US dollar to buy/trade/price oil with.

Back to Iran saying “screw you, we’ll bomb the hell out of Israel”.

Captured the worlds attention by once again bringing up the “Global Currency” talk.

Captured the world’s attention by letting them know he is a complete push over. Sounds like Afghanistan is going to be a prime example of that.

and not exactly a quote but-

Nobel Committee Chairman Thorbjoern Jagland rejected suggestions from journalists that Obama was getting the prize too early, saying it recognized what he had already done over the past year.

“We hope this can contribute a little bit to enhance what he is trying to do,” he told a news conference.

The committee said it attached “special importance to Obama’s vision of and work for a world without nuclear weapons,” saying he had “created a new climate in international politics.”

Ok, that’s enough. No more quoting.

Even the biggest most heartfelt Obama supporters have to recognize that he hasn’t done squat. He has done absolutely nothing to deserve this award except for having “his vision”.

Hello world. He has done nothing. Nothing but do all that he can to run this country into the ground.

WAIT! That’s what the world wants right. The world hates America. So, with Obama attempting to run the country into the ground towards Socialism/Communism then he is bound to get an award of some kind from the world.

Complete joke. Nothing more can really be said. He has accomplished nothing, not even on the Liberal adjenda. Nothing. Even if you tried you couldn’t name 1 thing. Not 1.

He has made friends. Isn’t that cute…..here is an award.
