how do you fuck up accepting the Nobel Peace prize?
"Barack Obama's trip to Oslo to pick up his Nobel peace award is in danger of being overshadowed by a row over the cancellation of a series of events normally attended by the prizewinner.
Norwegians are incensed over what they view as his shabby response to the prize by cutting short his visit.
A little perspective here, darlin'... he's the third sitting president to get the award...
AND THE ONLY ONE TO SHOW UP TO GET IT
Carry on.
Well naturally. He'd never miss an opportunity to hear himself speak and to receive applause.
damned if he does, damned if he doesn't....
that's why most of us don't take the whining seriously.
I will say, though, that having a president with the ability to speak without mortifying us is pretty nice.
