It was the moment when the entire world laughed at liberals and then lost all respect for the Nobel Prizes. When Barack Obama was announced as the winner of the Nobel Peace Prize in 2009, even the fresh-faced president pretended to be a little shocked. “To be honest, I do not feel that I deserve to be in the company of so many of the transformative figures who’ve been honored by this prize,” Obama said at the time. Still, he accepted the prize over several other much more worthy candidates. What did he do to deserve the prize?
Now, in a traditional Homer Simpson “doh!” moment, a former director of the Norwegian Nobel Institute has acknowledged that, in hindsight, he’s not so sure if giving the prize to Obama was a good move either. More regrets on the next page:
Yeah about 4 years ago
I will never again have any respect for this organazation or the award
I always thought it was some sort of pay off, or bribe.
Stupid liberal move to award this POS anything.
They should be ASHAMED.
Well I know another president who received the noble peace prize. And we the people of America was really surprised. As president just like Obama did not deserve it. So no surprise.
SURPRISE! The Nobel Peace Prize is not some Show Up Prize like you give Kindergarteners. It is supposed to actually mean something. So, they Regret. Regret enough to take it back and demand he repay the money?
I’m black so that’s enough said.
Nobel peace prize , woman of the year? What’s the difference? Our respect is gone.
That is really a winner as he doesn’t even deserve a drink of water if dying of thirst .
