President Wins Nobel Peace Prize

WOW! From CNN:
The first African-American to win the White House, Obama was praised by the Norwegian Nobel Committee for "his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples."

"Only very rarely has a person to the same extent as Obama captured the world's attention and given its people hope for a better future," the committee said. "His diplomacy is founded in the concept that those who are to lead the world must do so on the basis of values and attitudes that are shared by the majority of the world's population."
I can already hear the heads exploding on the right. What are wingnuts to do now? Get out the popcorn.

On this happy news, I'm heading out to work at job #2.

More later.
