   Let’s see…he could buy some kind of vaguely-militaryesque uniform, some random bogus medals, a wildebeest-tail flyswatter, a portable guillotine and cheaply-made SKSs for his ‘friends’.

   He’d be all set.

   Hard to define what “his side” is exactly. The PLO perhaps? He seems to like them.

   The Taliban in this case.

   He could get some serious bling: A platinum and diamond grille, big garish donkey medallion, ring covering 4 fingers spelling out IWon, another ring with his ‘O’ symbol done up in rubies, diamonds and saphires.

    Rushmore, pfft! He certainly won’t share space with 4 dead white guys representing a United States he despises.

    The Obamasiah’ll get his own mountain. Maybe Soros will buy one for him while he’s still alive, so he can watch his many worshipers innaugarate the pilgramage to this most holy site to worship TEH ONE’s image.

    Perhaps he should donate the prize money to the families of the soldiers who were wounded and killed when Combat Outpost Keating in Afghanistan was attacked and overrun, to ensure that the wounded survivors get the best medical care possible, and that the children of our slain heroes have ample funds for their college education.

    Just a thought…

    I suggest checking current us code before he receives payment. Presidents and other government officials can only receive limited gifts and donations while in office.

    Anyone looked into this yet. Got here late and have to go. Sorry about that but I have to work and head to bed.

    You are skewering him from the little I see. Keep up the good work gang

    Here’s what I just posted on the main page story Story of Obama’s life: “Rather than recognizing concrete achievement…”:

    Well, you know he will fly over for the ceremony because it’s all about him.
    He said he’s going to give the prize money to charity. I have a great one.
    How about giving it to the Air Force to defray the costs of flying Air Force One over there.

    Somehow I doubt this will happen, but hey, I hear ACORN needs money these days!!!

    A very liberal co-worker had a suggestion.

    She was as surprised and shocked as we are by Dear Leader’s award and suggest he show some class and also generate good will across the aisle by declining the prize and instead graciously offer to travel to the ceremony and present the prize to the most deserving. (After all, Dear Leader admits he doesn’t deserve it. . .besides, he will get it next year. . . .)

    Yeah, Soros could buy Crazy Horse that’s under construction and change it to His Holiness’ image. But then again, Crazy Horse killed a bunch of evil white guys under Custer, so he’s a hero to the Left.

    Give it to ACORN because their gov’t funding was cut off by malicious overzealous republicans.

    What he really should do, donate it to a veterans organization and challenge his rich buddies to match the gift!

    He’ll pay ACORN’s legal expenses with it.

    I had heard a number of folks suggest on the radio that Obama COULD have pulled off the biggest coup of his young presidency had he simply rejected the award, on account of his being undeserving (as he himself admitted to be), and by doing so, he would have actually shown some degree of humility (whether he meant it or not). By his accepting the award, he merely made himself to be the biggest buffoon in the entire world. His stupidity is off the charts.

    Its not his money. If I recall correctly he is required to turn it over any gifts, awards, prizes, etc., received while in office to the US government; any such gifts, awards, prizes, etc., are the property of the people of the United States, not the recipient.

    The proper thing would be to donate it to the groups Mary K Ham noted were passed over, like the group that helps victims of land-mines.

    But this being Obama, the proper thing will not happen.

    If he donates it to the Treasury it might pay for part of the cost of sending Air Force One and a backup and other cargo planes to Norway for Obama to accept the boot-licking from the sons of Quisling.

    But that ain’t happening either.

    A donation to the UNCF would be a good deed and would be racially concious, supporting America’s historically Black colleges, but the good deed part might get in the way.

    Legally and Constitutionally he should refuse to accept the money and the tangible aspects of the award. Or at the very least he should declare they are the property of the USofA and not his.

    There is question about whether he can accept this title from another government, as well.

    A Poem:

    First book of The Statist:

    Obama is my shepherd,
    I shall not want.
    He leadeth me beside still factories.
    He restoreth my faith in Alice in Wonderland.
    He guideth me in the path of unemployment.
    Yea, though I walk through the valley of the bread line,
    I shall not be lonely.
    He’s anointed my income with taxes,
    And red ink floweth over.
    Surely, poverty and famine will follow me all the days of my life.
    The democrats and I will live forever
    In a subsidy shack.
    But I am glad I am an American,
    I am glad that I am me.
    But I wish I was a dog
    And Obama a tree
