Since it wasn't an American who won the Nobel Peace Prize most media in the USA have ignored the man who actually did win it, a diplomat from Finland. His name is Martti Ahtisaari and he's spent his whole professional life working to bring peace to the world. Sure, he's also been in a sauna or two in his day as well and he looks like a villain from the 1960's Batman TV show, but come on, the dude is deserving of the prize.
Congratulations Mr. Martti Ahtisaari for a job well done. And for being a great Finn.

didn't he play The Bookworm?
Although I understand that Scarlett Johansson showed up at the after-party. WTF?
brylcreem..
he uses it
I love Finns and Finland.
He makes me think of an Oompa-Loompa
You've got to love those Finns! Or, at least, I have to, or I'd be a self-hating Finn. Dudes like Mr. Ahtisaari (can you pronounce that? I can) make one proud to be Finnish, even if we're not the most beautiful people on the planet.
Ed: Oh, I don't know...There are a lot of hot Finns out there!
Not if you use Mr. Ahtisaari as an example!
I think he looks like the Underdog villain Simon Bar Sinister, but with a nicer head of hair.
He looks like Simon Bar Sinister and has a name that is practically an anagram of Matti Ass Hatti. Of course he deserves an award!
