Anna Paquin played her in an HBO TV movie. She lived quite a life.

Sendler continued her efforts even after the Warsaw Ghetto was destroyed, ultimately saving around 3,000 Jews altogether. She was especially careful about recording the original and adopted names and other details that would allow for the reunion of the children with their parents after the war.

It's all right, God didn't forget her.

And God's not forgetting Al, either.

Humility is a virtue that is never recognized for what it is which is why it is what it is.

Sounds like someone one worth remembering ~ and I don't mean the Algore.

I met some Shindler Jews at a party at a friend's house once. They were his wife's parents. Their first story was about how Shindler saved them ~ I think later on that evening we got around to some of the other stuff.

Typical of the Norwegians to pass over this lady ~ too Catholic or something ~ or maybe too friendly with Jews.

I'm sure they have an excuse ~ not one I can think up ~ but there'll be something.

So incredibly pathetic I still can't believe al gore's win and that he was up against this incredible person just makes me wish I could send off a blistering note to the people who voted for that dunderhead.

This award has certainly lost whatever luster it held.

What’d you expect? They couldn’t use Irena to rob the world’s taxpayers of $Trillions. Therefore, she didn’t deserve the prize.

Every time I read about this heroic woman’s story I am humbled and awed.

And every time I read about that piece of human offal and detritus from the political sewer, Al Gore beating her out for that Nobel Prize, I want to vomit.

Like the U.N., the Nobel Prize has become a worthless symbol of contemporary western degeneracy.

Another jewel: Irene Gut Opdyke. Her story will be with me forever. (’In My Hands’). A true heroine!

I hope I never have to be this brave, but if push comes to shove, I sure hope I can be!
