A bit premature don't you think?


I was gabberflasted this morning to wake to the news that our president has been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. This is the same man whose body of work was deemed insufficient for Arizona State University to award him an honorary degree even as they hosted him as a commencement speaker. Furthermore, nominations were due before Obama had finished even two weeks in office.
I have great hopes for Obama's presidency in spite of my opposition to his positions on life issues. By the end of his term of office may President Obama prove himself worthy of the honor he is being awarded this year. If he does, we certainly will have cause to celebrate.
