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:
DUH, YA THINK?
So do the people as it surly was not earned
He didn’t win it , Soros and the democrats bought it , to help him get elected ….Made a farce out of a great tradition…
it has become a political pandering gimmic
So you give an award going that person will eventually do what the award was for???!! SMH A participation trophy if ever I saw one!! What a joke.
I would hope to God they regret it. It was idiotic!!!!
The Nobel Peace prize is no longer relevant in any way. It means absolutely nothing. After giving Obama this award it is no longer credible. It’s a complete joke
Awarded to a no accomplishments community organizer….now there is no honor in receiving this award
They should
Wrong call wasn’t it.
