I saw this on CNN, we all know the real reason for this is
OMG 1ST BLACK PRESIDENTZ!" which, IMO, isn't a very good reason to give out a Peace Prize. But whatever.

I agree. Except for maybe that last line.

Someone's obviously never read Hamlet.
I heard about this on the way to work today. I'm not sure how I really feel about it yet, but it does seem odd to me too.

AGREED.
He hasn't even really done anything hugely monumental yet so that must be the only explanation...

Hm? That's a Hamlet reference? ...He still could've changed it to Norway and retained the reference, then
(I'm not a big Shakespeare buff. I've read A Midsummer's Night's Dream, Macbeth, and Twelfth Night, though.)

Obama has as President created a new climate in international politics. Multilateral diplomacy has regained a central position, with emphasis on the role that the United Nations and other international institutions can play. Dialogue and negotiations are preferred as instruments for resolving even the most difficult international conflicts. The vision of a world free from nuclear arms has powerfully stimulated disarmament and arms control negotiations. Thanks to Obama's initiative, the USA is now playing a more constructive role in meeting the great climatic challenges the world is confronting. Democracy and human rights are to be strengthened.
Only very rarely has a person to the same extent as Obama captured the world's attention and given its people hope for a better future. His diplomacy is founded in the concept that those who are to lead the world must do so on the basis of values and attitudes that are shared by the majority of the world's population.
For 108 years, the Norwegian Nobel Committee has sought to stimulate precisely that international policy and those attitudes for which Obama is now the world's leading spokesman. The Committee endorses Obama's appeal that "Now is the time for all of us to take our share of responsibility for a global response to global challenges."
So, basically, for what he said he would do and the hope he created in people.
----
Just in case he doesn't do any of those things he said he would do: Can the Nobel Committee ask for the Prize to be returned to them? I mean, ask for it to be nullified?
So it would be like:
Nobel Comm: Hey, you said you'd do all this. Want a Nobel Peace Prize?
Obama: Woah shit thanks.
N.C: Just so you know, if you don't do all this, we'll take it back, K?
O: Ok, I guess.
N.C: Cool. Here, have your dirty Prize.
(Years later)
N.C: Hey, you didn't do all this.
O: Come on guys, give me a couple more years.
N.C: No. Hand it in.
O: Aww, shit.
----
Damn, I'm sleepy. Try to ignore the second half of this post.

True, but that's exactly why he doesn't need that nobel prize NOW.
I'd be happy for him if he got one after he actually did something meaningful...

Note the exact wording here. I can see why they picked Obama, and I think in the long run he has the potential to have been a good choice. Most of the criticism has been that it's so early in Obama's term, so they're awarding it in anticipation of things he is planning or likely to do, rather than what he's actually done. Overly optimistic perhaps.

Seriously though, I think it's pretty foolish giving the prize to the "top man" in two ongoing wars... But at the same time, I see the point. Words are powerful too, and isn't perhaps the idea of a world heading in a better direction worth a prize? Maybe maybe. But overall, I think I think it's a mistake.

Oh Well!
Let´s wait 2-3 years!
Is there any assurance that something will happen?
I don´t think so .. .
Oh well . . . .we´ll see then . . .
