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:
Political hacks
I agree david
THEY WERE STUPID TO GIVE GAYVOMIT ANYTHING.
It’s b******t that they gave this person a Nobel prize for b******t reasons. So, in other words, you have devalued the prize by giving it to a person that has done nothing but the total opposite of what it used to represent. What a bunch of dicks.
We regret you giving it to him too
Well it’s alittle too late now
Who’s getting the next nobel peace prize ISIS?
HE DESERVES THE FRAUD OF THE CENTURY AWARD NOT THE NOBEL!
They should have waited until he had a track record. It’s their own fault for giving it to him before his true colors could be seen.
Or maybe wait until after he has done something to decide instead of giving it to help him win an election.
