And the 2012 Nobel Peace Prize goes to Mikhail Khodorkovsky, who languishes in a Siberian jail for crossing Russia’s strongman Vladimir Putin. It goes to Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangirai, who was severely beaten by Robert Mugabe’s thugs in Zimbabwe. It goes to Cuban political prisoners (both known and unknown), and millions of North Koreans enslaved in that country’s labor camps.
Just kidding!
The esteemed members of the Nobel Peace Prize Committee have awarded the 2012 prize to the European Union. So, if you thought that awarding it to President Barack Obama for the sole reason of not being George W. Bush was strange and unusual, think again. (By the way, I have nothing against our president. I am sure he was just as embarrassed as everyone else.)
