    Obama wins 2009 Nobel Peace Prize

    http://www.cnn.com/2009/WORLD/europe...ize/index.html
    Any opinion on that? On one hand, he has only been president for less than a year, and I am not sure if he's done that much to earn this prize. Then again, I am not sure who else would be a better candidate.

    Do they have to hand out a Nobel in each category every single year?

    Hey come one... give the guy a break. America hasn't gone to war with anyone new in 6 months, and that in itself is an achievement
