Prize and Prejudice


Suddenly that whole Olympic snub thing looks like a pretty distant memory.

Still, anybody wanna take bets on the sure-to-be-creative ways that the usual suspects on the right are going to put a negative spin on this?

The Huffington Post: Obama Wins Nobel Peace Prize/10.9.09

(Update: For the record, I posted this quickly while on the move this morning. Those of you who are writing to say, "I don't get why he won the award; it's a confusing gesture that seems to be based solely on Obama's intentions rather than his actions," I happen to agree completely. So, maybe that's what the right will run with. Although who knows -- an argument that makes sense? That's not their style these days; they'll somehow come up with proof that this means Obama has made a secret deal with Mars to allow them to colonize us all.)
