Guess what Paul Krugman said about Obama supporters in 2008.

55. Your Nobel Prize Winning Economist's "theories"

especially the selling of NAFTA has done much damage to our economy.
That is not "theory". That is fact.


The Nobel Committee damaged their legitimacy and credibility after awarding President Obama the "Peace Prize" before he ever warmed up the seat in the Oval Office. I'll bet they regretted THAT one after the surges, drone assassinations, destruction of Libya, and spreading the WAR to other countries.

Former Nobel chief: Obama Peace Prize a failure

"Remember that Nobel Peace Prize that President Obama got in 2009? Well, maybe it wasn't such a good idea after all, a former top Nobel official said.

In a just-released book, Geir Lundestad, director of the Nobel Institute for 25 years until stepping down last year, said the prize committee had expected the honor to deliver a boost to Obama, something he believes did not happen.

Speaking to The Associated Press, Lundestad, who sat in on the secretive committee's meetings but did not have a vote, said the committee "thought it would strengthen Obama and it didn't have this effect."

"In hindsight, we could say that the argument of giving Obama a helping hand was only partially correct," he wrote, according to VG, a Norwegian newspaper."

It seems that the secret Nobel Committee cares MORE about giving their favorites a "helping hand" than they care about actual science, peace, or contributions to humanity...
which makes then political, NOT impartial.

I've lost a lot of respect for Nobel Prizes.
