Obama was inaugurated on Jan 21, 2009 and was subsequently nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize on 2/27/09. Faster than your average bear.
This article http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748704429304574467491888455498.html offers an excellent alternative Nobel Peace Prize award (for those of you who might think there were any other more deserving candidates). Unfortunately this award has gotten very political.
In general , accomplishment takes time, hard work, and most importantly results. Hard to achieve this in just 37 days. Obama must have been embarrassed about winning this award. Non-liberals (I hate the term conservative) want to recognize accomplishment, liberals want to award based on "feel good" objectives.
