I pop up the news when I am waiting to get the truck unloaded, and the headlines are "Obama awarded Nobel Peace Prize". Even though I qualify to join AARP (NEVER GONNA HAPPEN), I do realize that I remember when being awarded a Nobel Prize was something that really mattered. It signified a momentous achievement.
Awarding the Peace Prize to President Obama is the equivalent of the home run records of Barry Bonds, Mark McGwire, Rafael Palmeiro, Sammy Sosa, David Ortiz,.....need I go on? It doesn't mean anything, because it is tainted. In the case of baseball, steroids. In the case of the Peace Prize, political correctness, and progressive idealism (fancy name for socialism) have embraced Obama as the poster child for changing the world.
If making apologies for everything that ever happened is considered peace prize worthy, then every teenager going through puberty should be set for life.
