Obama's Nobel Prize: What A Joke!

It was announced that President Barack Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize.

I cannot say it any better than Jennifer Loven, White House Correspondent for the Associated Press:

WASHINGTON – The awarding of the Nobel Peace Price to President Barack Obama landed with a shock on darkened, still-asleep Washington. He won! For what?

For one of America's youngest presidents, in office less than nine months — and only for 12 days before the Nobel nomination deadline last February — it was an enormous honor.

The prize seems to be more for Obama's promise than for his performance. Work on the president's ambitious agenda, both at home and abroad, is barely underway, much less finished. He has no standout moment of victory that would seem to warrant a verdict as sweeping as that issued by the Nobel committee.

And what about peace? Obama is running two wars in the Muslim world — in Iraq and Afghanistan — and can't get a climate change bill through his own Congress.

Obama says he's humbled and feels he doesn't deserve the award (at last, we agree on something). Will he decline it?

What a joke!
