The Occasional Observer

There was still a microscopic grain of honor left in my mind for the Nobel Peace Prize. There were some respectable early winners such as T.R. and the Red Cross. But it's dropped off a cliff in the last decade with winners such as Kofi Annan, Jimmy Carter, and Al Gore. I thought they hit bottom when awarding it to Obama, but they got out the shovel and dug a bit deeper. Wikileaks has been nominated. What a farce.
