Awesome post.
If Nobel is spinning in his grave, is it to the right or to the left?
Yes, I've been wondering, what DOES global warming have to do with peace, anyway?
The founder of modern Islamic terrorism won the prize, which by itself should end any discussion about its merits.
They’ll be plenty of time to award prizes to these true heros once the United States of America is taken down to the level of the countries that are persecuting them.
The best summary I heard while talking with some people in my church today was this:
The Nobel Peace Prize and Literature Prize have become ‘Man of the Year’ awards for liberalism.
Excellent post, with far more worthy candidates than Gore! Considering what’s been happening in Burma, a second Nobel for Aung San Suu Kyi would have been very appropriate.
AlGore made a 100 million $$$$ since he has been on tour. Maybe he should win an Nobel Prize for economics
good read
They have defined down the Nobel Peace Prize into an oscar for liberalism.
They chose to empower a liberals proganda about an unrelated issue rather then impower those seeking freedom from tyranny and peace.
The prize is a total joke, but we knew that already.
Peace? Gore’s War on the Weatherman is a match for this era’s perpetual ‘war on whatever’.
The Silly Prize committee gave the award to Arafat, the Islamic terrorist who killed many people, in 1994. They are a political organization pushing communist ideas and AlBore fit thier mold. Gore and Arafat share a common prize. That doesn’t say much for Gore or the prize.
I posted a thread Friday night on Irene Sendler - who should have been the receipient of this year’s Nobel Peace Prize
IRENA SENDLER (Who should have won the Nobel Peace Prize)
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1910471/posts
The Nobel Peace Prize was awarded this morning, and Id like to congratulate Irena Sendler. Sendler was a former history teacher who rescued 2,500 children during the Holocaust and was a top contender for the wondrous prize. Back during the early 1940s, Sendler was a Catholic social worker who had gone into the Warsaw ghetto to rescue Jewish kids who were destined either to starve there, or die in death camps. She would sneak the kids past Nazi guards, sometimes hiding them in body bags, or would provide them with false documents - inevitably getting them to Polish families for adoption, or hiding them in convents or orphanages. She also made a list of the childrens real names, put them in a jar and buried them, so that some day she could dig them up and find the kids to tell them their true names. The Nazis captured her and beat the crap out of her, but she later escaped, and she went into hiding. Shes now in her late 90s , living in a nursing home in Poland.
I want to congratulate her, because she didnt win the Nobel Peace Prize. Instead it went to Al Gore, the guy who invented the Internet. Go figure.
I guess he will have to be satified with become a Saint and saving millions from communism.
bump for publicity
I don’t understand. How would the awarding of the prize to anyone on that list poke President Bush in the eye. Isn’t that the point of the prize nowadays?
> Kinda puts Algore’s farce of an award in proper perspective, doesn’t it?
The Inventor of the Internet has now won the Nobel Peace Prize. Whodathunkit? And he managed to do it by dreaming up this decade’s Y2K-scam, Global Warming. And like Y2K it is going to cost the world Billions of Dollars to achieve precisely nothing...
...and *this* is the man who was nearly POTUS. It just goes to show that about half of the US population are stark-raving bonkers. God Bless the Sane Half!
Who have sacrificially given of themselves - their lives - in the cause of peace - the members of the Armed Forces of the United States of America. There is no no honor great enough that can be given to those brave men and women who lay down their lives for anothers.
Who has steadfastly, in the face of great obstacles, pursued the cause of peace in the world - George W. Bush.
