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:
They should. No Nobel prize should go to an idiot.
While I agree that Obama clearly didn’t merit this award, and that the committee’s rationale for giving it to him was the height of idiocy, the Washington Post article that this links to is from almost a year ago.
It’s laughable..How many deaths is this insane guy responsible for.So much blood on this guys hands and you give him an award.?
THEY HAVE CHEAPENED THE MEANING FOR THIS REWARD. ALL OTHERS DESERVING THE REWARD I APOLOGIZE FOR THIS ABSOLUTE INSULT TO YOU. OBAMA HAS DONE NOTHING POSITIVE FOR PEACE IN THIS COUNTRY. HE IS THE CAUSE OF THE HATE AND DISSENTION HERE. I LIST RESPECT FOR THIS REWARD. MEANS NOTHING ANYMORE.
Well no doubt, he doesn’t know anything about peace!!!
Liberals have never been known to use good judgment!
Yes he stirred all this hate that is getting people killed .
Retreat, not strong enough!
The fix was in
and he has done nothing but bad.
