“Norwegians incensed over Barack Obama’s snubs,” the Grauniad writes, ending its article by noting:
A White House official said that it was not necessarily an award that Obama would have given himself.
Why not? I thought he was the tautology he’s been waiting for.












The committee has bestowed what’s become a worthless prize on an undeserving/unworthy recipient. What’s the problem here? The Norwegians and Obama are getting just what they deserve-each other! How can a prize that’s been awarded to Jimmy Carter, Kofi Annan, Yasir Arafat, and Barack Obama have any value?
