I will wait for the Razzies — they have more gravitas and significance, since you have to DO something — and try to do it well — to get one of those.

Expect the fake news media to play it up and milk it for all its worth as they cover Rats equipped with new talking points over the weekend.

Oh, it wasn’t Obama’s fault, it was already forever tainted when it was given to terrorist Yasser Arafat and con-artist Al Gore.

The heroes vs the rapist Kavanaugh. We get it. The script is written.

Coming from the Nobel Prize lefties, it comes as an anticlimax.

Sounds like they may actually deserve one...

Nobel Peace Prize for anti-rape activists Nadia M

The commitee's intent may be bad, but the recipients seem like good eggs.

If I had to wager, I’d wager 2:1 odds Hillary gets it over Trump.

Fake news. The winners were already announced. They are Nadia Murad, ISIS rape survivor and Denis Mukegwe, Congolese dr. and activist for their work against rape as a weapon of war.

Thier credibility is zero when they gave president zero the prize for future ACCOMPLISHMENTS that never happened. The prize from the cracker jack box has more credibility

Has Obama merely just been thinking about peace lately?

Getting the Nobel Prize for anything not scientific is like getting the “Most Interesting Outfit Worn While Shopping At Walmart” award.

6 Feb 2018: GlobalCitizen.org: Hillary Clinton Gives Human Rights Award to ISIS Survivor Nadia Murad
Nadia is a Yazidi refugee who has fought to bring ISIS to justice for committing genocide
By Daniele Selby
The survivor, activist, and UN Goodwill Ambassador received a human rights award from Hillary Clinton at the annual Hillary Rodham Clinton Award Ceremony at the Georgetown Institute for Women, Peace, and Security.

I’m very humbled to be w/such great women. Today I received 2018 Hillary Clinton Award for advancing Women in Peace and Security. Thank you @HillaryClintonpic.twitter.com/givITYAPW3
— Nadia Murad (@NadiaMuradBasee) February 5, 2018

Over the past few years, Murad has joined forces with with international human rights lawyer, Amal Clooney, to call on the United Nations to take action and help bring ISIS before the International Criminal Court to face war crime charges...

Clinton highlighted the importance of advocates and activists like Nadia and Wai Wai during the discussion that followed the award ceremony.
“When you listen to Nadia’s story, you realize the importance of law — the rule of law — due process, judicial systems, international organizations that have to be sustained and supported to set standards and hold people accountable and serve as places of recourse for the Nadias of the world,” she said...

Global Citizen campaigns for freedom, for justice, for all, and supports Nadia Murad in her fight for justice for the Yazidi people.
