Nobel Peace Prize Loses Whatever Shred of Credibility It Had Left

Out: Repulsive old bats who’d like to assassinate the president. In: Religion of Peace Global Warming. Cindy Sheehan just emailed Ace to say she wanted to kill Bush way before Betty did and therefore would’ve made way more peace if she’d only had a time-travel machine and also that she’s running for office and Gore is not so she will make way more peace than he might or might not in the future when she kicks that warmonger Pelosi out of office.

Why doesn’t the Nobel board just save themselves some time and put out a statement delivering the prizes for the next five years to Bono, Rosie O’Donnell, Arianna Huffington, Leonardo DiCaprio, Barack Obama? It appears all you have to do to win it is espouse leftist/socialist talking points and be famous.

  1. Hey don’t be so hard on the Gorecle, he’s at least as good as Carter or Arafat!

    Me thinks the Nobel board has spent way too much time on the Pease pipe…

  2. That’s two F-16 pilots commenting on my blog! I need a side panel with little icons on it now, I think…

  3. If they give Peace Prizes for fermenting world-wide hysteria, why didn’t Hitler get one? Or Tojo? Or bin Laden?

    Or maybe it is just becoming a special club for failure, washed-up Democrat politicians. Clinton next?

    oy-vey…

  4. Here’s one good thing about it. A dear relative is suffering from low blood pressure. He was watching the TV news from his hospital bed and I think watching Gore win helped him out by driving up his blood pressure! However, it didn’t do mine a bit of good.

    Please note how Doris Lessing received the news of her Nobel Prize in literature
