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:
Me too.
Too late
NO$#%&!@* Too damn late to close the barn door after the jackass has already escaped.
That prize is just a joke now.
As well they should. TOTAL DISGRACE. award no longer has any meaning
You think?
Obama receiving the Nobel Peace prize made a mockery of the award. I will forever question the judgment of those that determine the recipients of such awards.
It’s already gone
The man of peace! ROFLOL
