Cindy Sheehan loses Out On Nobel Peace Prize

The Nobel Peace Prize was awarded on Friday, Oct 13 to Muhammad Yanus and Grameen Bank for developing micro-credit as an instrument in the struggle against poverty.

This must come as a shock to "Peace Mom", Cindy Sheehan, who announced at a recent book signing in Texas that she was a finalist for said prize.

Oh Darn

[Dallas59]

Who?

[#1CTYankee]

Deeply saddened.

Bush's fault./s

[DainBramage]

"She did however win the famed FreeRepublic Piece of Sh#T prize"

[RobFromGa]

I thought that they were going to give it to the leader of Hezbollah for "beating" Israel, but I guess they decided to wait till he is dead.

[since 1854]

Finalists for the Nobel Prize are NEVER revealed in advance.

[Int]

Peace Prize goes to Muhammad Yunus and Grameen Bank

[sure_fine]

I really am shocked

[Rocko]

She is such a drama queen.

[Non-Sequitur]

Actually I kind of like the selection. Recognizing a economist who taught the value of capital investment in poor areas, allowing them to realize the rewards of entrepreneurial effort, and the bank that put those theories to work? Beats last years selection. IMHO, of course.

[OldFriend]

Pity party for the ditch witch. NOT

[dhuffman@awod.com]

Now there's an idea. The Free Republic Annual Award for Persistence of Stupidity or POSY.

Full of double entendres and puns. Combine it with the forth quarter frathon, a vote per dollar for your favorite poseur, liberal, RINO, RhINO (for the log cabin boys), or fiscal conservative/social moderate willing to have you pay for their social programs.

[oh8eleven]

Deeply saddened ...

[gulfcoast6]

I think it is a miscarriage of justice, we should all boycott the Nobel folks, little harry reid should open up an investigation at once, if he is to busy defending his rear on the money deal, get little nancy p.

[Always Right]

Finalists for the Nobel Prize are NEVER revealed in advance.

Obvioiiusly someone leaked it. Cindy would not lie.

[Jack Wilson]

So they are saying that the secret to peace is capitalism? Interesting.

[dhuffman@awod.com]

A necessary ingredient for Macbeth's brew was in

Double, double toil and trouble; Fire burn and cauldron bubble. Eye of Newt, and toe of frog, Wool of bat, and tongue of dog. Finger of birth-strangled babe, Ditch-delivered by a drab. By the pricking of my thumbs, Something wicked this way comes. Open, locks, Whoever knocks!

For the Hag Hillery, with hate.

[sgtbono2002]

I dont listen to network news very often, but the story of Harry Reid and his windfall doesnt seem to be going very far.

[tsomer]

Obvioiiusly someone leaked it. Cindy would not lie.

I heard it was George Soros...

[alwaysconservative]

Watch it! You're giving drama queens a bad name, LOL!

[Tom Bombadil]

who announced at a recent book signing in Texas that she was a finalist for said prize.

Was she primping in her mirror?

Narcissist.

[Joy in the Journey]

***hugs***

/sarcasm

[Fury]

Noooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[since 1854]

You forgot the sarcasm notice.

[lawdude]

The poor, delusional b*t*h.

[lawdude]

The poor, delusional b*t*h.

[gulfcoast6]

When does anything ever take hold when it comes to the dimwits.

Better yet, who better to head an investigation into this travesty than Jimmy Carter?

[cibco]

LOL!!

[Right Wing Assault]

A few thoughts:

Sounds more like an economics prize than a peace prize.

Hey, Cindy! I heard I was a finalist, too.

They didn't select you because you said you wanted to kill President Bush but didn't also mention wanting to kill Donald Rumsfeld.

Of course, one of the most famous winners of the "peace" prize is Betty Williams who recently also declared she would like to kill President Bush.

From now on, all Peace Prize winners must be Muslims since it is The Religion of Peace. All other religions are, therefore, Religions of Hate and War.

In case, you missed it--further to yesterday's thread. (Turk Pipken is deeply saddened.)

[shezza]

"I pity the fool."

[Einigkeit_Recht_Freiheit]

Is your who about Sheenan or Yunus.

Yunus is the man who started micro-finance as a global movement.

FYI Microfinance means providing access to capital to poor people.

East Coast Foundations loved to give them money, but could not possibly imagine they might be able to pay it back.

Yunus proved them wrong and that free market capitalism is the best route to poverty alleviation. Give people capital and they can help themselves. This is an award going to a man who achieved massive, positive social change using conservative principles.

He derserves it very much.

[NonValueAdded]

Oh, Sad Sindy will be sadder still.

[mkjessup]

When the Nobel committee begins awarding prizes based on stupidity, Cindy will be a shoe-in.

[Tom D.]

You are quite right. Finally we have someone who shows that the path to prosperity starts with the free ability to invest capital and not by dumping a bunch of taxpayer's money on a bunch of corrupt third world despots in hopes that they will "invest" it wisely and honestly.

[exile]

Peace Mother Sheehan (PMS) shouldn't worry too much. There's always next year to join such titans of world peace, like Arafat.

re: Cindy Sheehan loses Out On Nobel Peace Prize

And to think, some people say there's not a benevolent God who answers prayer. I think He knew that I'm up not up to an insult like her getting the peace prize. Jimmy Carter almost pushed me over the edge and I had just about recovered from that travesty, but Cindy Sheehan winning it would have been too much for me.

Seriously though, my heart and prayers to out to Ms. Sheehan. She is not a happy person and appears to spend much of her time suffering. I pray she will find her own peace but I fear the Lord has hardened her heart. I pray I'm wrong.

[Elsie]

Ouch!

[Condor51]

We know Cindy wouldn't lie, she was just misinformed.

She wasn't nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize, she was nominated for the:

Piece of COWBELL Prize...

[GoBucks2002]

if he is to busy defending his rear on the money deal,

Between the MSM refusal to touch the story (seen it on TV or in your print paper?) and the GOP refusal to bring it up in public (seen it on the cable shows the past two nights?), you and I, and Harry, know this story is already past its freshness date.

[NittanyLion]

I agree completely. An excellent pick.

[reagan_fanatic]

Cindy Sheehan loses Out On Nobel Peace Prize

Gee, that's too bad. I wonder what's on TV tonight...

[Izzy Dunne]

Peace Mom', which stands at No. 207,064 in sales

Right popular, that one is...

[mylife]

I'll bet Karl Rove was behind this

[PBRSTREETGANG]

Cindy Sheehan loses Out On Nobel Peace Prize

Well...thank goodness she still has her brains and beauty to fall back on.

[ustanker]

Who would have thought? Guess they will give it to "peanut" boy again

Script / Text of Act IV Macbeth

ACT IV
SCENE I. A cavern. In the middle, a boiling cauldron.

Thunder. Enter the three Witches 

First Witch 
Thrice the brinded cat hath mew'd.

Second Witch 
Thrice and once the hedge-pig whined.

Third Witch 
Harpier cries 'Tis time, 'tis time.

First Witch 
Round about the cauldron go;
In the poison'd entrails throw.
Toad, that under cold stone
Days and nights has thirty-one
Swelter'd venom sleeping got,
Boil thou first i' the charmed pot.

ALL 
Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn, and cauldron bubble.

Second Witch 
Fillet of a fenny snake,
In the cauldron boil and bake;
Eye of newt and toe of frog,
Wool of bat and tongue of dog,
Adder's fork and blind-worm's sting,
Lizard's leg and owlet's wing,
For a charm of powerful trouble,
Like a hell-broth boil and bubble.

ALL 
Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn and cauldron bubble.

Third Witch 
Scale of dragon, tooth of wolf,
Witches' mummy, maw and gulf
Of the ravin'd salt-sea shark,
Root of hemlock digg'd i' the dark,
Liver of blaspheming Jew,
Gall of goat, and slips of yew
Silver'd in the moon's eclipse,
Nose of Turk and Tartar's lips,
Finger of birth-strangled babe
Ditch-deliver'd by a drab,
Make the gruel thick and slab:
Add thereto a tiger's chaudron,
For the ingredients of our cauldron.

ALL 
Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn and cauldron bubble.

Second Witch 
Cool it with a baboon's blood,
Then the charm is firm and good.

Enter HECATE to the other three Witches

HECATE 
O well done! I commend your pains;
And every one shall share i' the gains;
And now about the cauldron sing,
Live elves and fairies in a ring,
Enchanting all that you put in.

Music and a song: 'Black spirits,' & c

HECATE retires

Second Witch 
By the pricking of my thumbs,
Something wicked this way comes.
Open, locks,
Whoever knocks!

Enter MACBETH

MACBETH 
How now, you secret, black, and midnight hags!
What is't you do?

[pandoraou812]

Well she can get the prize for being a moron. I don't really follow the nobel thing anymore since Carter got it. I don't know why she would ever have thought she was in the finalists to get it anyway, what has she done to deserve it????
