‘For the first time ever, the head of the Nobel Peace Prize Committee has been fired. It happened on Tuesday, March 3rd.

Thorbjorn Jagland, chairman of the Nobel Peace Prize Committee, and former Norwegian Prime Minister, said, on the way out the door, that it would be “really nice” if President Barack Obama were to return the prize.

The White House had no immediate comment. (This reporter just now, at 1:47 PM Eastern time, specifically asked the White House whether there yet is a comment, and still there is none. Maybe he will volunteer to return it?)’

President Barack Obama’s administration has submitted a record shattering budget request to Congress, asking legislators to approve $534 billion in Pentagon spending for 2016. Although defense spending perennially increases, this year’s amount is the largest ever, and does not even include the billions needed to fund the ongoing wars in Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria. Stephen Miles, advocacy director of Win Without War, breaks down why the Nobel laureate is taking such an unprecedented step.

He wasn't fired. He was demoted. OP headline says he quits and the 1st sentence states he was fired. Did he quit after being demoted?

yes he was demoted. heard nothing to say he quit. Obama would have had the NPP as one of his riders to take on the job of Prez. I want an NPP and I want to play on every 5 star private golf course in the world, including Scotland. Actually has he played there yet? I think he did a couple years back.
