Nobel Secretary Regrets Obama Peace Prize – BBC News

Both David and I called this one… [1]

Well, to be honest, it wasn’t all that hard to call….

.Awarding the Nobel Peace Prize to US President Barack Obama in 2009 failed to achieve what the committee hoped it would, its ex-secretary has said.

Geir Lundestad told the AP news agency that the committee hoped the award would strengthen Mr Obama.

.

So, as we said at the time, the award was given based on political wishful thinking and not the actual results.

I wonder how many people are going to be chastising the Nobel committee for being racist as they did so many people who said that it was going to go down exactly this way.
