Nobel Peace Prize could have helped Zimbabwe....
Yes, a huge missed opportunity...
And who should have gotten the prize?
....Zimbabwean Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangirai, who had been tipped as a favorite for the prize, told Reuters that Obama was a deserving candidate and an "extraordinary example."
He is being polite. When the Nobel committee gave the prize to Obama, in spite of the fact that he has no accomplishment other than getting elected, it robbed Zimbabwean labor leader Morgan Tsvangirai.
Tsvangirai became the Zim PM earlier this year after enduring over a decade of frame-up charges, beatings, assassination attempts, fraudulent elections--and the murder of hundreds of pro-democracy activists by the genocidal socialist Mugabe regime.
The Nobel committee bypassed an opportunity to shine an international spotlight on the struggle of the Zimbabwean people against dictatorship and the socialist demolition of what was once one of the most prosperous countries in Africa.

The Nobel Awards Committee not only bypassed this opportunity but every single other truly deserving event or individual, intent was substantiated with concrete and tangible results. Something Mr, Obama cannot boast, regardless of how well he may read his teleprompter.
"this diminishes the prize that Yasser Arafat worked so hard for" - best line evar!
what a pathetic joke, but it becomes cruel when they could have actually done some good with it. now they won't even be able to do that in the future because they have no credibility left.
The only way the NPP can be awarded to an African is if the winner has helped break the chains of white oppression. It's in the rules.
