According to Nobel's will, the Peace Prize shall be awarded to the
person who
“ ...shall have done the most or the
best work for fraternity between nations, for the abolition or
reduction of standing armies and for the holding and promotion of peace
congresses. [Wikipedia]
Reader -B
put this on today's menu with this E-mail-
I can’t believe I’ve never seen a
comment about this (which I just discovered): http://www.snopes.com/politics/war/sendler.asp. Specifically, the paragraphs at the
bottom that states she was probably nominated for the Peace Prize in
2007, but lost out to ManBearPig, Al Gore. If only she had saved 2501
children, she might have won.
Of all the Nobel Prize categories, are any as
subject to
political agendizing as Peace?
Which is what's happened. Here's the actual new bastardized
criteria.

...shall have done the most or the best work to further the
aggrandizement of leftist causes, promote the United
Nations agenda,
and bring the United States into disrepute.

Truth is, neither Irena Sendler ,
nor Al Gore remotely qualify under the dictate of Alfred Nobel's will.
Since Irena Sendler is Catholic, she may be worthy of sainthood,
for saving the lives of 2500 Jewish kids/infants from NAZI I. As
it is, her good deeds are today remembered, which is probably the
greatest reward any of us can hope for.
What did Al Gore, who won the prize in 2007 do? Really.
Please, tell me how lending his celebrity to the climate change
hysteria helped anyone, save for researchers who reaped
millions in government grants? In fact, the case has been
made that Al Gore is responsible for the starvation of thousands,
possibly millions, as grain products are diverted from food tables
to making bio-fuels. He truly deserves criminal prosecution for
his role in this scheme. He is insane, however.
