i was with you on the criticism of obama's do-nothingness, but this is just stupid whining. like when the conservatives cited "freedom of speech" when miss california was denied a crown. learn the difference between public and private before you boo-hoo about it.

caco-taco (that's your new nickname), i do know the difference between public and private groups, such as the boy scouts, who are private, and caused an uproar when they denied gay members to join. i'm not complaining about 'my tax dollars' going to anything— i just feel like the nobel committee has had a long standing precedent of rewarding those who advance society, make peace, etc, and awarding obama prematurely was a bad call, just as i think the boy scouts not allowing gays is a bad call. nothing i can do to change it, but it's a valid topic for discussion.
