Obama's Prize

Leave it to Iraq's version of Joe the Plumber to nicely sum up the import of the Nobel Committee awarding the Peace Prize to President Obama. From Reuters:

Issam al-Khazraji, a day laborer in Baghdad, said of Obama: "He doesn't deserve this prize. All these problems -- Iraq, Afghanistan -- have not been solved . . . man of 'change' hasn't changed anything yet."


The tone and tenor of his remarks makes it highly likely that the literal translation of the Arabic would substitute some form of "human excrement" for the phrase "anything yet."
