  • nobel has become the oscars for politicians

    giving barack an award for threatening to nuke iran, in order to stop them from making nukes,, is like giving an award to the cops and military for working to rid the world of guns.

    the country with more nukes than the world combined, does not rid the world of nukes.

    it's absurd bullshit, really.

  • umm... ACORN is not a money laundering organization.

  • 1997:

    Honestly... this prize was Diana's. Without her, the campaign would've been nothing. I remember seeing a video where her interpreter said that Diana went to go talk to a young girl who was dying from the effect of a land-mine. After she left, the girl asked "Who was that woman?" The interpreter responded "She's a Princess." The girl said "No, I think she was an angel, because no one's ever made me so happy." The girl died that day, and Diana died that year. Both were too young.

  • Norman Borlaug ftw. Feeding 2 billion people is a pretty awesome achievement.

  • Al gore was bullshit too. He buys carbon credits from his own company while using much more energy then the average american he is preaching too. Also, if i hear him say "I invented the internet" my brain will implode.

    I like Obama but he is currently commander of chief of a large standing army that is in wars with two countries. How do we define peace today. Maybe they meant the the piece award.. as in taking a bigger piece of the world under USA control. Bollocks.

  • fuck! has the nobel prizes become a joke? Are they losing money, for not having enough quality people to award the prize to thus being forced to lower the standards?

    This corrupt consumerist culture and obsession with political correctness and agendas is fucking up academia as well. FUCK.

  • *****

  • NUJABES. <3

  • Where did u buy your racist facist brain?

  • Obama bought the prize with tax money laundered through ACORN.
