From this article published in the TIMESONLINE:

Barack Obama today sensationally won the Nobel Peace Prize after just nine months in office for returning America to a multilateralist foreign policy after eight years of going it alone under George W Bush. The Norwegian Nobel Committee said it was honouring the 48-year-old US President for "his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples". [TRANSLATION: He now wants all of our allies to either actively join in or at least approve of our continuing wars in Iraq and Afghanistan (and pretty soon probably Iran and Pakistan too) instead of us pursuing our criminal actions alone.]

The five jurors, elected by the Norwegian parliament, also said in their citation that they had attached "special importance to Obama's vision of and work for a world without nuclear weapons". [Except, of course, Israel. Or, for that matter, all of the countries who already have nuclear weapons—including the United States.]

Mohamed ElBaradei, who heads the UN's nuclear watchdog and won the prize in 2005, said: "I cannot think of anyone today more deserving of this honour. In less than a year in office, he has transformed the way we look at ourselves and the world we live in and rekindled hope for a world at peace with itself." [TRANSLATION: Now that a Republican is out of office, all of these criminal wars that we've been fighting are suddenly "transformed" into "just" wars because the Democrat in office is continuing these criminal wars (as it was always meant to be, by the way).]

Thankfully, there is some dissension (including the Taliban!):

Lech Walesa, who won the prize in 1983, spoke for many with his reaction. "Obama? So fast? Too fast - he hasn’t had the time to do anything yet," the former Polish president told reporters in Warsaw. [You're wrong, Lech. He's had plenty of time to be doing exactly what the people who want to bring about a One World Government chose him to do. (Oops! I "forgot"! We the People "choose" our Puppets-in-Chief.)]

The decision was also criticised by America's international foes – the Taleban said that Mr Obama had "not taken a single step towards peace in Afghanistan" – and is unlikely to go down well with the President's critics on the American Right. [No! Really?]

P.S. Check out some of the left-wing laudatory blogs over at the Huffington Post. Already the "transformed" left-wing sheeple are rationalizing this travesty. Notice how they all conveniently ignore his escalating war in Afghanistan and his bombing of Pakistan in their paeans to this Prince of "Peace."
