Does anybody get the meaning of what a so-called Noble (not Nobel) Prize is, especially as it pertains to Reporters and Journalists? Noble is defined as, having or showing fine personal qualities or high moral principles and ideals. Does sarcasm ever work?

(115,674 posts)But he's been obsessing over the Nobel Peace Prize because Obama got one and he wants one desperately (and will never get it), so that's probably what was stuck in his tiny brain.

(5,969 posts)that I've already seen by some of his supporters on Twitter. He screwed up and you'd need to be braindead to believe any attempt to explain it away. When I replied in another thread, I almost wanted to make the joke that he'd use the sarcasm excuse again. But I decided against it because I thought that would be too lame and it actually makes no sense at all.
Either way, it's clear that he showed his ignorance again as he not only talked about the "Noble" prize using capital letters but he also attacked the committees making these decisions. His supporters should feel insulted that he believes that they buy this bs.
