A prize for the president
Re “Obama awarded Nobel Peace Prize for diplomacy,” Web article, Oct. 9
I support President Obama as much as anyone, but let’s face it, what the Nobel committee really did was award the prize to the American people for electing Obama. Obama’s great accomplishment in the eyes of the committee? Not being George W. Bush.

Congratulations to Obama for your vision, perseverance and communication skills to get the important message to the world that the U.S. is morally back.

The cult of celebrity strikes again. I voted for Obama, but for goodness sake, have some propriety and measure of worth, Nobel committee.
America’s TV and radio right-wing rent-a-mouths will have a field day with this, and rightly so.
