So Barack Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize for…what? The beer summit between that cop and the guy he hassled? I dunno. I'd probably say the prez deserves it just for not being George W. Bush and for putting at least a temporary end to so many (but alas, not all) of the destructive international policies we had for eight years. But really, I don't know why anyone has taken the Nobel Peace Prize seriously since they gave one to Henry Kissinger.
