An image of U.S. President Barack Obama is seen in an exhibition at the Nobel Peace Centre in Oslo December 9, 2009. Two leading international human rights groups gave Obama mixed reviews on his human rights record on Wednesday, a day before he is slated to accept the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize in Oslo. Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International urged Obama to use his acceptance speech on Thursday to renew U.S. leadership on human rights after its position was undermined by abuses committed during the Bush administration's war on terrorism.
