Wow.

US President Barack Obama has won the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize.

Know hope.

Translation:

World [via 5 Norwegians] to Obama: We ♥ U! Keep up the good work!
Obama's likely response: I love you too, world. Stay classy.

*g*


ETA2: Ta-Nehisi FTW! :)

ETA3: Sullivan finally woke up!

I like the guy, and voted for him and everything. But it's been what, 9 months? I can't think of any major foreign policy accomplishments or anything. Odd!

Cairo speech, address to the UN, work with the Israel & Palestinians, Iran, Iraq, Pakistan, Afghanistan, North Korea. He and Clinton have made tremendous strides in multiple areas of engagement.

I think the Nobel was a little premature - but sure shows how relieved the universe is that there is a new tone from USA.
