Bush and Blair nominated for Nobel Peace Prize

I wish this were a joke.

Tony Blair and George Bush have been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize for waging war on Saddam Hussein.

…The leaders were put forward for the accolade by right-wing Norweigian politician Jan Simonsen, who made his nomination public.

    Left wing liberals would complain that Bush lost millions of scientific research positions if he announced tomorrow that we have cured cancer. I guess freeing 50 million people from terrorists and a dictator isn’t enough either. To liberals, Saddam Huessin is a democratically elected president, and George W. Bush is a despot killing his own people.
