Obama was awarded the Nobel peace prize. To quote The Onion: "Now is a time when we must do something about some problem, perhaps by working with others." Yes, that pretty much sums it up. My first thought - they really don't have high standards for this peace prize thing. But then, who else would they give it to? Michael Jackson for dying so we can live in peace without seeing his plastic face anymore? Or perhaps more appropriately, his doctor. Now, don't get me wrong, I love some of that old MJ music.
