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:
President Donald J Trump has earned it biggly.♡
It’s deeds like this that fuel Norwegian jokes, & I know they are more intelligent than this. Jus sayn. IMHO
What did he do to receive a Nobel peace prize . . And he excepted . What about
In a desperate attempt to gain credibility based on his popularity, his selection destroyed all credibility.
Give him a division prize!
Too funny. Giving Obama the Nobel Peace Prize was the biggest mistake that committee ever made. Any respect for the prize before went right out the window with that nomination. No one respects the Nobel Peace Prize for much of anything anymore, it’s just another participation trophy for those who haven’t earned it.
The Nobel Peace Prize is no longer noble. Sad.
The decision to award the prize to Obama displayed the committee’s slavish devotion to stupid and petty accomplishments, both real and imagined. You all know what you can do with your prizes from now on.
One of the biggest phony awards ever given. Barrack Husssan Obama was and still is a man that has one mission in mind. And that is, destroy America. He is without doubt the worst President the U.S. has ever had.
I hope he has to give it back. However, if it contained precious metals; they will never get it back.
