Matter of Opinion

Short and sweet

Of all the editorials published around the country about President Obama's Nobel Peace Prize, the most concise is probably this one from the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette in Little Rock:

 Enough said
   What is one to say on hearing that the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize has been awarded to . . . Barack Obama?
How about, for one brief shining moment of national unity, a little simple propriety, for there is no better guide to the perplexed than good manners:
   Congratulations, Mr. President!
