In all fairness, Einstein won the Nobel Prize for physics in 1921; that year, the Peace Prize was won by Swedish socialist Karl Hjalmar Branting and Norwegian writer Christian Lous Lange, for, as far as I can tell, going to international conferences and yammering about pacifism. Branting helped get Sweden into the League of Nations, so you could argue that then and now, the prize was being given out for getting countries re-engaged with other countries to do something or other that didn't actually stop wars.

This cartoon was an apparently too subtle reference to Einstein's definition of insanity.

The Nobel Prize has become an Affirmative Action handout to negroes. (See: Toni Morrison, Barack Obama). Typical of blacks - get a handout for doing nothing but talking and talking and talking, when you can't actually find a real private sector job because nobody wants anything to do with you.

Here's the "joke"
Albert Einstein once said, "The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results".

My problem with the 'toon is that there is a vast difference in talent and intellect between recipients of the Nobel Prize in Physics and the "Peace" prize. The Obamaloon is obviously the 6 sigma outlier on the dumbo end of the scale.
