This guy is a double dick for two good reasons. One: He put the cart before the horse. Two: He failed to detect that Obama is no more than a tongue flapping empty suit.

He should have told the whole truth that the Euroweenies gave the useless Kenyan the prize to stick their finger in W’s eye and by extension our eye,

I am surprised they didn't give it to Hillary in 2016 to help her in the election.

Gorbachev got the prize in 1990. Debatable, but not as bad as some other choices (Obama, Carter, Gore, Arafat)...would have been better if he had shared it with Ronald Reagan, but no way would they give it to Reagan.

No! You don’t say.

Who would have ever thought giving Obama a Nobel Peace Prize after about 5 weeks in office during which he accomplished nothing would make the Nobel Committee look like a bunch of really stupid leftist hacks? It was a total shocker that people saw it that way.

How many centuries will it take before the prize is ever credible again? And Who cares?

Good for him. I hope the rest of the braintrust over there feels the same.

That is Obama’s Legacy, summed up and as simple as it gets.

The 2009 prize was awarded to an incarnation of Satan.

Even my most liberal pro-Obama friends — yes I have some, I live in California! — agree that the prize was ludicrous. And if you look at Obama when it all came down, he clearly felt the same way — embarrassed by it all. But hey, they gave it to Arafat, so maybe anybody can get it.
