There have often been criticisms of the award of Nobel prizes, and not just for peace: some who have won the prize for literature over the years (and, more to the point, some who haven't) beggar belief. But the sheer preposterousness of this smug and pompous organisation can seldom have been thrown into greater relief than in the award of the peace prize to Barack Obama, who is currently leading a nation that is prosecuting a very nasty war in Afghanistan. The reasons given for the award – to do with international co-operation and cutting nuclear arms – are absurd. I think I know why he has won. He has made such a mess of the US economy that America soon won't be able to afford any armed forces at all.

I guess it's all been said. Pro or con - it doesn't matter. Focus, people, focus. The real problem isn't all this self-congratulatory crap - it's the attack on America that we cannot take our eyes from. Government handouts are not the same as job creation. Only lower taxes will accomplish that. And stop printing money!
