My friends on the right at Big Hollywood and also on the left at the Cincinnati Beacon are a flutter about President Barack Obama winning the Nobel Peace Prize. Seems the President himself was a little confused as he is only the third US President to win while in office. Maybe he just misunderstood the call.

I suppose we should be grateful Angelina Jolie didn’t get it, though I think she has done more than Mr President on the whole humanity thingy. Not that I have anything against Obama, poor guy didn’t even know he was nominated (I guess his wife knows how to keep a secret 🙂 ).
What? No comment about me being gone and you went into the DT’s without a cartoon for 3 days?
Angelina should get it. She is adopting all the worlds unwanted children.
I did that on the previous post , just so you know!!!!
I know…I figured you couldn’t resist another opportunity to finger point that out.
What? Did someone say finger?
Yes he is at it again Jammers . A bit of Pot calling the kettle me thinks 🙂
How come Jammer doesn’t come around until the word “finger” shows up.
He has a Google alert for “Bearman Finger”
Works great, doesn’t it?
Well, I missed you. And my wife said we could adopt you if Sally Struthers didn’t mind.
Sally kicked me out b/c I was eating too much.
You went form eight cents a day to sixteen, didn’t ya?
No I found the real craft service stash of twinkies.
Goodwork Bear. The Peas prize makes more sense to me. I was really puzzled about the other one. I think the Nobel Peace Prize has become a popularity contest now.
Not sure about that. Sure Al Gore and Carter have won it recently but then again last years winner was MARTTI AHTISAARI. Now anyone know who he is?
Are you sure you got the spelling right?
Its off the Nobel site.
Just checking, I thought I could buy a vowel!
I got a “U” for sale.
I can’t believe Mr. T didn’t receive it this year….
You can’t win if you aren’t nominated.
Glad to see you’re back up and running, Mr. B – and a real funny peas of work (as always)!
I am peased you like it.
You two made me snort.
Here’s a tissue.
welcome back Bearman. You draw a fine dejected Obama.
My angry Donald Mills aint so bad either.
well obama should really give peas a chance! funny toon bearman! everyone knew it had to be a joke!
Thanks Lynn but frankly I am peased that I didn’t win.
All cartoonist gets the Obama ears right!
Obama did not earn this award, but he inspires many.
Corve are you saying that his ears are the only thing I got right..haha ty for stopping by.
No, not at all lol
Peas are my favourite vegetable. May I have my prize now?
Yes from the Pea Farmers since you are the only one I know who likes them.
Nice to see you back in the saddle again!! 🙂
Yeah it was my laptop that I take when traveling. I’ll try to catch up on all my fav places this weekend in case I don’t get it fixed.
Yeah, well where are ya?
he was with moi… jealous? 😛 haha
Jealous? Blahahhahaha he’s all yours blahahhahahahaha
Ladies please don’t fight. Unless there is a jello pit involved.
Now we are talking!
what did Obama actually do to win the Nobel Peas..i mean Peace Prize? i like the persona of the guy but i need to read up on what it was for..unless they gave it to him as they adopted the notion of “if you build it they will come”… maybe they thought “If we give him the peace prize then maybe he WILL bring peace” self fulfilling prophecy. mmmm fulfilling peas…. *drool*
on the other hand maybe it was the fact that GWB was sooooooooooo bad that really if it had been Sarah Palin in office she would have won it because “I can see russia from my back yard” would be enough for the selection criteria of winning a nobel peace prize when weighed up against mr “they have weapons of mass destruction..somewhere… i think… but couldnt rightly say at this point in time”-Bush.
There have been years where they didn’t award the prize. Maybe this could have been one.
Nobel’s peas are the tastiest in town.
ewwww…another pea lover
Nobel peas come frozen right?
Sadly only Birdseye.
I your Obama is looking really good!
I must say, as an Obama lover, the Noble does make no sense, the dude hasnt been in office long enough to have done anything to deserve the award. (not to say in a couple of years he wont.) I have a hunch it is more a statement agianst the Bush administration then a huge pro-Obama statement.
Agreed especially since the nomination were due 11 days after Obama took office. Think it was the timing that was off on this one.
1. It really is ridiculous for Obama to win the peace prize when he hasn’t really done anything. He hasn’t been in office for a whole year yet, even.
2. That doesn’t change the fact that this cartoon is still extraordinarily lame and unfunny.
So you are saying I shouldn’t hold my breath for the Cartoon Pulitzer??
