President Obama has been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, and Americans are not only pleased but also surprised because our president is still getting his feet wet when it comes to foreign affairs and our place on the global stage. When our enemies applaud us, however, it gives us pause because Cuba’s communist dictator, Fidel Castro, has said some nice things about our president and he has never before said anything positive about any American or America.

Hmmmm

You’re wise to be wary of praise from a suspicious source. You might also question whether the agenda of the Nobel committee is perfectly aligned with that of America.—Ed. Note
