The White House has confirmed that President Obama will personally come to Oslo to receive the Nobel Peace Prize, and the capital is gearing up for the visit, including the massive security arrangements which will have to be made.
The presentation will be made at a ceremony at the Oslo City Hall on December 10th, and the security will be a challenge.
However, Oslo Mayor Fabian Stang bids the US president heartily welcome:
- Clinton has visited us earlier, and I am sure that the police and the municipal authorities will solve that problem in a good way, Stang says.
Oslo police Chief Anstein Gjengedal admits that he wishes he had more time to make his preparations, and that he needs more money. He forecasts even stricter security than during Clinton's visit in 2003.

With all that love, why the need for so much security?

...Obama will personally come to Oslo to receive the Nobel Peace Prize...Of course he will. He will jump at any and every chance to jet across the world at our expense, pollute the environment, park his face on TV, and drink in the fawning adulation of his Eurogroupies.
Whadya bet Michelle takes a separate flight? Just for the heck of it.

Condolences.
Only Obama could screw up a celebration with self serving adulation and travel at our expense.
But never mind....and Happy Birthday, Nana!

Here's hoping Kanye West repeats his previous awards performance.
"Yo Barak, I'm really happy for you.
I'll let you finish.
I'm sorry, but Beyoncé had one of the best videos of all time.

The award money should be used to defray the cost of his trip.
