Obama Wins Nobel Peace Prize: Reactions
Astonished
OSLO/WASHINGTON (Reuters) – U.S. President Barack Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize on Friday for offering the world hope and striving for nuclear disarmament in a surprise award that drew both warm praise and sharp criticism.
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.

Absolutely stunning act of stupidity. Further degrades the credibility of the Nobel committee as if it wasn’t already a joke. Now, “The Ego in Chief” can be enshrined with the likes of:
Al Gore
Jimmy Carter
The United Nations
Yasser Arafat
Le Duc Tho (who actually refused the prize) the only one with any honesty among this group.
Will the committee finally recognize the efforts of Adolph Hitler, Benito Mussolini and Hediki Tojo for their efforts, posthumously?
The world awaits.
