Bear With Me

Sorry, still wrapping my head around this Peace Prize thing. Could the reason that they haven’t given one to a sitting US president in 90 years be that the last one was for another guy with a great plan for peacemaking that didn’t work out so well?  I don’t want to seem like a conservative ranter; I like Obama and it would be great if he could do all that he’s promised.  But to paraphrase the scholar Homer Simpson, making lots of promises may make him a good President, but keeping them would make him a great one.
