Who said it had anything to do with what he's done AS president? imlad Send a noteboard - 10/10/2009 05:31:44 PM
I think the main reason he was nominated for this, and eventually won it, wasn't what he had done/has done as president, but the simple fact that he managed to pull off what many didn't think could happen yet in America.

Everyone keeps thinking the prize stems from what he has done as the president, without thinking it might have something to do with what he did BEFORE being inaugurated.
Death to the Regressives of the GOP and the TeaParty. No mercy for Conservatives. Burn them all at the stake for the hateful satanists they are.
