Congratulations, Mr. President!
President Obama has been awarded the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize. The selection committee said he was awarded it for "his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and co-operation between peoples".

It is an expression of hope by the Nobel Prize Folk, both in Obama's Presidency and his Nuclear agenda.

The deed and the prize are lessened without results regardless of intent and effort.
I believe Alfred had to make dynamite work before he was successful.

But I agree with Bill O'Reilly in that it reflects well on America whenever a citizen wins the Nobel Peace Prize. |

Sadly, it was seen in areas unfriendly to the West as just another suckup to the great Satan.
