All Mama can say is...seriously?! Can you say violation of the First Amendment? What ever happened to wanting our children to be individuals? Shame on McDonald's! They are grounded!!

Nobel Peace Prize
Now this whole thing is just getting silly!
Mama agrees with the President...she's not quite sure why he was awarded with it.
Let's start with the fact that there is a process involved.
1. Invitations go out in September.
2. Nominations are due in February. (By the way - Mama can't find him in the database as a nominee because those records are sealed for 50 years...my, isn't that convenient...).
3. A short list is made in March and it is reviewed through August.
4. In October they pick.
5. In December they award.
We do not give awards and tell people to earn it...and why should we, as a country, strive to earn something for a President that wasn't nominated and that understands that there was really no reason for him to be awarded it. We still have starving children. He's ramping up for more troops to go to Afghanistan. Sure, he's been buddy buddy with some really "peaceful" guys if you count Hugo Chavez as peaceful.
Can Mama go ahead and award her little darlings with the honor of being valedictorian even though her darlings are in 6th and 3rd grades? Can Mama do that even though the sixth grader is bringing home two Cs and a D? Would it make any sense at all for Mama to tell him, at that point, to go earn it?
Awards are there for those that did something to deserve it. That's why it is an award. It wouldn't mean anything if we just started randomly giving out awards.
For the silly, silly liberals that think we conservatives just hate the President because we don't think he deserves it...don't be so illogical. Obama, then, must hate himself as well as many of his own constituents..
Mama has yet to have anyone address the school award scenario. Shall we just award Florida or Texas the BCS trophy now for college football? They haven't won yet, but hey...if we're just going to hand out awards....
Can you imagine if something like that would have taken place with a conservative in office? Talk about a backlash and a double standard! Oh and let's not forget how "peaceful" it is to call those with a differing opinion (such as this one) hateful....
