That supposes the award had any value in the first place. It didn't.
Chairman Arafat(Nobe Peace Prize Winner) says “Hello”.
Just askin’
Is Barry’s brother still living in the hut in Kenya?
Sima Samar has done very good work, but it did not bring peace anywhere, especially in Afghanistan.
Ingrid Betancourt is a marxist idiot who spent 6 years sitting in the jungle until she was rescued.
Dr. Denis Mukwege is doing laudable work, but once again where is the 'peace'.
Handicap International and Cluster Munition Coalition is cleaning up what is mostly a dictator mess left on the battlefields of the world. No 'peace' here just janitorial services.
Hu Jia and Wei Jingsheng are just two examples of the thousands of Chinese currently in prison in the PRC. Peace?
That brings us to the latest winner, FUBO...
On second thought, even the idiot marxist sitting in the jungle is more deserving.
Ingrid Betancourt? Please tell me how she advanced the cause of world peace. She had the bad luck to get herself abducted and by all accounts was no angel during the entire episode. She deserves the Prize about as much as Obama does. Less, even.
I refuse to believe the White House didn’t know this was coming. Expect some taxpayer-financed gift to head toward Norway soon.
It should be increasingly clear by now that we are living in a "Matrix" world politically speaking. Everything is as programmed as Saudi money, international accommodation, and compliant media can make it.
My take is that this prize was debase long ago.
Take a look at a list of those who won it over the last 20years. There are very few who really deserve it.
That would be fabulous. They could announce their winner the week after Nobel does its thing. It might actually shame them into some return to integrity. But probably not. Still, the contrast would be illuminating.
If only they had a TelePrompter.
I heard they will award olympic medals prior to the actual events, to “encourage” the athletes. After all, real accomplishments don’t mean much. /sarc
The people who were passed up for 0b0z0.
This should make your blood boil.
PING!
And don't prevent a girl of age nine from getting married.
How can one possibly devalue an award that was given to Jimmy Carter for being stupid and Al Gore for writing a fantasy movie? I loved the cartoon posted on FR of Obama pulling the Medal out of a box of Cracker Jacks.
Disgraceful and shameful.
I’ve posted a link on my Facebook account, and I urge everyone to pass this far and wide. People need to know just who was bumped out so that Obama could be crowned King and Emperor.
Sickening.
Let's see now, the prize includes $1.4 million and this would go into Obama's pocket while it will cost the tax payers about one million for he and his entourage to go over there to accept it.
“Irena Sendler never got a chance to be nominated again, as she died in 2008 and no Nobel Prize can be awarded to someone who is dead.”
Well, she has a better reward. More often than not, things like this are never really appreciated on Earth.
We are.
The Nobel Prize is not what it was and is now a cheap banquet joke.
When the Nobel Committee gave the award to Arafat that made it pretty much a coffee table award and nothing more.
words of appeasement.

Right. You know there are ways of honoring the office of the US Presidency, and the United States of America without bowing the knee to the bammy imposter messiah cult.
I like Pawlenty in some ways, but he blew it (again.) Wonder how many more chances he’ll have.
Actions matter most - but words are important.
It is possible that ACORN sent hookers to the staff in Norway....you think?
