Hot on the heels of this past weekend’s Saturday Night Live skit, poking fun at the fact Obama has pretty much achieved nothing since he came to office, today we learn that Obama has been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize:
WASHINGTON/OSLO — Barack Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize on Friday in a stunning decision that honored the first-year U.S. president more for promise than achievement and drew both praise and skepticism around the world.
The bestowal of one of the world’s top accolades on a president less than nine months in office, who has yet to score a major foreign policy success, was greeted with gasps of astonishment from journalists at the announcement in Oslo.
