I don’t think it devalues the accomplishments of previous winners because their accomplishments live on. But then again, a lot of the previous winners didn’t deserve it either as the Nobel committee has a long history of giving the prize to despots and thugs and Obama is definitely a step up from some of those guys.

The problem is Obama is shaping out to be the Anti-Bush.

The big criticism of Bush was he was a mediocre politician who, in spite of his lack of talent in any field, managed to be the most powerful man in the world for 8 years straight.

Obama is running on the same theme. He’s not very accomplished, even as we approach a year in office, and a good number of citizens voted for him based on two criteria:

1. He’s not a Republican (con-vote).

2. He’s black (pro-vote).

The layering of undeserved awards and accomplishments will only undermine his efforts and promote resentment among voters, especially since it reinforces the negative cult of personality image and bolds his severe lack of notable accomplishment.
