"However, no one associated with the Norwegian Nobel Committee officially asked President Obama to return his Nobel Prize; the article was just a bit of pointed political humor from TFE, a satirical web site whose other recent stories include “Shock in Arizona: Governor Jan Brewer Reveals She’s a Velociraptor,” “From Here to iTernity: Apple Launches iTombs,” and “Thatcher Dies, Goes to Hell, Hell Spits Her Right Back Out.”




I really didn't need to check to see if the article was fake, it was pretty obvious, but I figured you would need proof

From your own link, which you obviously didn't read ;

"Following several headlines that said Lundestad thought it was a "mistake" to have awarded the prize to Obama, he called a press conference on Thursday to deny that was what he had implied. "Several of you have written that I believe the prize to Obama a mistake, but then you cannot have read the book," Lundestad told reporters, according to VG. "It says nowhere that it was a mistake to give Obama the Peace Prize."

But please continue, it's not like you have any credibility to lose.

President Trump Nominated for Nobel Peace Prize by Norwegian Lawmakers

U.S. President Donald Trump was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize for his work in reaching an agreement to work toward de-nuclearization of the Korean peninsula.

The U.S leader was nominated by two members of Norway’s governing Progress Party, according to state broadcaster NRK. The deadline for this year’s prize passed in January, so this nomination would make him eligible for next year. It is unclear whether he was nominated for this year’s prize.

Nominations for the world’s most coveted prize are open to lawmakers, academics and researchers from around the world. The Nobel Committee in Oslo typically receives hundreds of nominations each year, and past candidates have also included Russian President Vladimir Putin and Former Cuban leader Fidel Castro. A record 330 people were nominated this year.

While the Norwegian Nobel committee is appointed by parliament, it’s decisions are independent. Trump was nominated by two right-wing members of Norway’s Progress Party, which advocates for limited immigration and lower taxes.

The Nobel Peace Prize.

Sponsored by the man who invented dynamite, which is used to blow things up.

Talk about a guilt trip.

Nobel Chief Finally Admits He Regrets Giving Obama the Peace Prize

Anyone with half an ounce of brains immediately knew in 2009 that the Nobel Peace Prize committee was making itself look foolish for giving Barack Obama its top award even though he had only been president for about five minutes. Now the group's former secretary is admitting that the whole thing was a huge mistake.

Nobel's former secretary, Geir Lundestad, told the media that he thought giving Obama the award would spur him to great accomplishments. Instead, Obama did nothing of note over the next eight years.

Lundestad addressed the foolhardy decision in his recently published autobiography, according to the BBC: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-34277960

Mr Lundestad, writing in his memoir, Secretary of Peace, said even Mr. Obama himself had been surprised.

"No Nobel Peace Prize ever elicited more attention than the 2009 prize to Barack Obama," Mr. Lundestad writes.

"Even many of Obama's supporters believed that the prize was a mistake," he says. "In that sense the committee didn't achieve what it had hoped for".

Lundestad that at first Obama greeted the situation with some good sense and initially said he did not even want to come pick the thing up.

But, soon enough his natural (and proper) embarrassment at being given the award for no logical reason was overcome by his arrogance and desire for personal adulation. He went and picked it up in person anyway.

Of course, Obama's detractors here in the U.S.A. widely made fun of the idiotic award.

As well they should. Obama did not deserve any "peace prize" before he had even fairly begun his first term. And eight years later, even Lundestad now admits that Obama did nothing even after two terms to deserve it.

It's about time they admit it.
