Yeah, given just how poorly the Nobel has been awarded over the last few years, it's sort of become a badge of dishonor at this point, hasn't it?
Speaking purely personally, I've only been happy with the recipients of two of the peace prizes presented in the last 10 years:
Those to:
Doctors without Borders and
Carlos Felipe Ximenes Belo/Jose Ramos-Horta
But it's not like it's my call. :-)
