I think what's funnier is the republican whining over the prize being awarded to Obama, even if you don't think he deserves it, trying to criticize him for receiving an award he wasn't even trying to get just makes them seem petty and without class.

What about the 10's of millions of Democrats that are pissed off about it?

  Pissed off about the GOP's lack of class, I don't see anything wrong about it, why shouldn't they be upset that the GOP is playing partisan politics at a time when Americans should be working together to solve the problems we continue to have.  The GOP has been the party of No long enough.

No, pissed off that Obama won this award.

 

Thinking it's wrong to give Obama this award, goes across party lines. Everyone thinks he has not done enough, not just the GOP.

To add to this ...

I don’t think the criticism about "Obama winning the Nobel Peace Price" is considered a negative against Obama as much as it is being held against "The Cult of Obama" and the Nobel Committee. I think it is fairly safe to say that (pretty much) every one who is not completely "In the Tank" for Obama doesn't believe that Obama has done enough to earn the Nobel Peace Prize, and that the selection of Obama at this point in his presidency is bizarre (at best).

What I would honestly suggest to most people who have envisioned Obama as this messianic figure who is infallible and completely deserving of all of this (bizarre) praise is to regularly imagine Obama on the toilet. It is nearly impossible for someone to maintain an image of someone as being super-human while imagining them doing the most ordinary and disgusting tasks that all humans do.
