After they awarded it to Obama for a good word, I am going to say; we
can let it slide. It's already lost its prestige. Besides, it's
handed out by Norwegians.

Unless you mean the Nobel Prize in Literature, at which point I do not
think Wikipedia qualifies.

Oh please, that's like having a wiki with better content than a Wikia
counterpart. It ain't really saying a lot.

That does not deserve you the Nobel Peace Prize.

Obama may be a talker, but I want to see results before I start
praising him. And if you want to keep a little bit of that self
respect that the Nobel Peace Prize is supposed to have, I suppose you
wait for it too.

The Norwegians are just jealous that Copenhagen is going to get Obama
TWICE in one year.
