LOL! Not that this price didn't get to questionable people yet or people getting preferred for strange reasons but I really didn't see that one coming... wink

awarded it for "his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and co-operation between peoples".

I usually don't make such comments but - so in other words he gets one because he's the first president with a dark skin color??? At least I know of no "extraordinary efforts" making him the Mr. Peace of the year (he even hasn't been president for that long)...

Only very rarely has a person to the same extent as Obama captured the world's attention and given its people hope for a better future

So that's the argumentation? I mean with those words? I then vote for Hitler getting one post mortem too - hell he really gave people something to believe in and hope for a better future making Obama's efforts look like child's work... crazy

Enjoy your meal
