Stockholm. That be in Sweden, no?

Of course, I wouldn't want to cast aspersions at Wikipedia!

There are many Nobel prizes, of course - economics, science, etc. - and the overall Nobel Foundation is in Sweden, but the Peace Prize selection committee operates out of Norway.

"All Nobel Prizes are awarded in Stockholm, Sweden, except for the Nobel Peace Prize, which is awarded in Oslo, Norway."

I wouldn't belabor the point except to the extent that I've received an inside tip that the selection committee is impressed with multiple nominations of the same individual or organization. I wouldn't want you mailing your nomination of me to the wrong city.

Yea, from what I have heard Hamid Karzai was Obama's campaign manager to win the nomination for the Peace Prize. Maybe that is why he is waiting so long to send those needed troops to Afghanistan...

I can imagine the posts if Obama had NOT won the Nobel Peace Prize:

Classicman: "That Liberal can't win his way out of a paper bag"

Merc: "My drill sargeant could have won the peace prize but that loser Obama couldn't"

tw: "upper management mba it was bush's fault"

UG: "He didn't win because he wasn't packing. Oh, and liberals are out to enslave the world"
