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:
About 8 years too late!
I was in shock when you awarded it to him
Shouldn’t have been so eager to jump and award it! Should have waited to end of his term……. you’d have seen a hot rock was more deserving!
But every one aloud to make a mistake
Maybe they should do more checking before they award ANY Noble awards.
He’s a peace of shitQ
Obama made a mockery of the award. Shameful scoundrel
Im sure they meant that they regret selling him one.
Well no$#%&!@* it was a joke !!!
After they handed it to that POS it means nothing now.
