It's "kooks."
If failing to acknowledge Obama as the "world's messiah" makes me a right wing kook, I happily accept the label.

Re: What the World - - Obama Wins Nobel Peace Priz
Wow, I'm confused.
He hasn't done anything yet, but he might in the future?
Oh wait, I know. He was elected President of the United States, doesn't that count?

Re: What the World - - Obama Wins Nobel Peace Priz
I may have been living with my head in the sand for most of my life, but I'm curious. To win the Nobel Peace Prize, do you have to apply for it? Or does someone have to nominate you? Or can either happen?
If he applied for it - then I am seriously shocked at his audacity!!!
If someone nominated him - then I really think that that person or persons should have their heads examined.
I was brought up to believe that winning the NPP was a huge honor and very big deal. Boy! That perception was blown straight out of the water with this! Now, it's about the same as winning a free small fries when you play Monopoly at McDonald's.
