RE: Your daily dose of WTF: Obama Wins the Peace Prize
The Nobel Peace Prize has been historically awarded as a motivator to follow through on actions, ideals, or commitments rather than for something already done or accomplished.
It's not a matter of the prize losing significance. It's the significance of the prize which aims to influence Obama into fulfilling his promises and commitments to peace.
