Indeed, people.
Article 1, Section 9 of the US Constitution states:
"No Title of Nobility shall be granted by the United States: And no Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under them, shall, without the Consent of the Congress, accept of any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince or foreign State."
Let's check the facts here...
-Nobel Prizes come out of Norway.
-Nominations ended in February. Obama was sworn in as President on January 20th.
-Yes, Al Gore won the Nobel Prize... however, he was not a current office holder.
-Even if he was still sitting as an Illinois Senator, it would still be unconstitutional.
Rumors are circulating that it was given as a sympathy award for Obama losing in the Olympic nominations. Who gives a flying fuck? We shouldn't have been fighting for the Olympics anyway. It actually costs more to host an Olympic games than it does gain revenue for the host city/country. We're already billions and trillions of dollars in debt. Not to mention the fact that he wants to push through Universal Healthcare and add yet another stimulus bill that will destroy more small businesses and raise even more taxes.
He's nothing but a teleprompter reading puppet. I'm embarrassed to call him my President.
Doesn't feel too good when the shoe is on the other foot, now does it? People, like me, that supported George Bush have our turn now. The main difference is we actually have reasons to oppose and verbally trash.
