Thorbjørn Jaglan, leader of Socialist International, KGB dupe, Barack Obama voter
Although it was originally reported that President Obama had been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize after a unanimous vote, the final tally was actually a much close 3-2 vote.
The Conservative Party’s Kaci Kullmann Five and the Socialist Left’s Aagot Valle voted no.
The swing vote that broke the 2-2 tie and awarded the Nobel to Obama was cast by committee Chairman Thorbjørn Jaglan, President of the Storting.
Wikipedia (yeah, we know the problems with Wikipedia, but we’re quoting it anyway) says, “Since 1999, Jagland is also one of several vice presidents of the Socialist International. Jagland stated that the left wing in Norway does not use Socialist International enough. From 2000 to 2006, he chaired the Socialist International Committee on the Middle East, and he has outspokenly opposed the perceived presence of islamophobia in Western societies.”
They also said, “…a former Soviet spy described Jagland as a friendly politician during the 1970s and 80s. Jagland said he held diplomatic talks with the Soviet unions and that all the conversations were innocent exchanges between them.[14] He was classified as a ’confidential contact’ by the Committee for State Security (KGB).“
Well, surely, you say, President Obama can’t be held responsible if some foreign socialist wants to give him a multimillion dollar award. It’s not like he named a socialist to his administration or anything.
Not so fast.
E&E News reports that Carol Browner was also an official of the Socialist International until forced to resign due to negative publicity surrounding her appointment as Obama’s Climate Czar.
So now we know who thinks Obama deserves a Nobel Peace Prize. And we know whom Obama appoints to key positions.
So the only remaining question is how anyone could possibly believe this guy’s not a socialist.

The Obama administration is like a Colorado flying saucer: Full of gas and hot air, spinning aimlessly in circles and completely empty.
True story about Wikipedia and Carol Browner, I was researching her awhile back and lo and behold, all references to her being a socialist on Wikipedia disappointing before my very eyes!! Not only is this administration making history, they are rewriting it as we speak!!
