I'd love to hear some statements from the Norwegian Peace Prize Committee, who in a fit of Obama euphoria gave him the prize during his first presidency.

- brg 13y agoIn my estimation, the award was not given in a fit of Obama euphoria as much as it was awarded in celebration of the removal of George Bush. I have heard it claimed that the committee's choice of Carter and Gore as recipients were more criticism of Bush than they were in response to those efforts, but I do not believe that argument holds. Many of the recipients from the first eight years of this century were very much deserving. http://www.nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/peace/laureates/ http://www.nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/peace/laureates/
