It appears sirs, that a Nobel Prize can not be revoked

§ 10.
No appeals may be made against the decision of a prize-awarding body with regard to the award of a prize.

In searching for the above answer, I ran across this (regarding his award originally), and got a little Deja Vu;

Quote:
Asked to comment on the uproar following Friday's announcement, four members of the five-seat panel told The Associated Press that they had expected the decision to generate both surprise and criticism.

Three of them rejected the notion that Obama hadn't accomplished anything to deserve the award, while the fourth declined to answer that question. A fifth member didn't answer calls seeking comment.

"We simply disagree that he has done nothing," committee chairman Thorbjoern Jagland told the AP on Tuesday. "He got the prize for what he has done."

The wisdom of the panels response eludes me...
