My point was that they have giving the award to several people for trying to bring peace to the Middle East (I think the last was Jimmy Carter) but nothing has changed. How long can they keep giving out the award for this cause with no results?
under this thought process, we would have never invaded Iraq. or Afghanistan. or any other country, because we can never be sure of the results.

No your missing the point. They keep giving out the award for that and nothing changes. 10 years from now someone will get the NPP for their work trying to bring peace to the middle east then again in another 10 years.

It doesn't matter. All that matters is that my squeeze is coming by this weekend. May Obama cure cancer and obliterate the Martians, thus improving our standard of living and adding to our PAX Americana.
I hope all of you have a good weekend. If you're getting over the flu like me, good luck. If you haven't had it, you're effed. I suggest you buck Nyquill and plan to take at least two days off.
How are we judging what constitutes better? By death toll? Right to vote? Peace?
That does bring out an interesting point. I generally have supported our savior mentality around the world as the places we have gone, much good has been done. Perhaps we would be more popular with the "savee's" if we paid less attention to installation of an "American style" society and just removed.....(killed) the offending dictator, and other problem officials?
