They elected a new chairman, big deal.

It’s not like they pushed him out and excoriated him.

Besides, he doesn’t get to choose who gets the award.

That is done by a panel vote..

Wow. Cool!

Is there a way to demote all of the idiots who voted for him?

When they send a crew around to repossess the award, then they’ll have re-established some credibility. This is too little too late.

Amen! I don't care if some dude perfects cold fusion, or room temperature superconductivity, or cures ALS... any Nobel prize awardee is tainted by Øbozo's peace prize.

I think the founders of these organizations such as Henry Ford, John D. Rockefeller, Andrew Carnegie and others were basically conservative.

You are mistaken. Rockefeller and Carnagie were known financiers of the Bolshevik "Revolution".

The Nobel Peace Prize committee is a big liberal love fest, giving awards to the lefties of the world so they can feel good about themselves. Kind of like what the Oscars are to the celebrities in Hollywood. A big liberal circle jerk.

I think it is because when their children and grandchildren took over running them they wee swayed by the fact they had inherited the money and didn't really need to work hard for it. Idle hands and all that.

his extraordinary efforts

It is notable that the nominations for the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize were due on February 1, 2009... a whopping 12 days after the first immaculation. Oh, and the prize was supposed to be awarded for work that improved mankind during the past year.

You can't take the Nobel Prize seriously any more.
Same for the media, and academia.
