Not at all. There are prizes for literature, economics, physics [theoretical, without the need for a lab or dangerous materials], and the peace prize. If the morons could give it to BHO, Arafat, and a bunch of lying grifters spouting "Climate Change", he has a pretty good shot at beefing up his commissary account with a hunk of change from Alfred Nobel's endowment.
When Arafat won the Noble Peace prize, I lost whatever little respect I had for the prize...
Actually it’s rather sad...
