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.

  5. Before you know it, they’ll be nominating communists for the Nobel Prize in economics! I feel this would be well-deserved, however.

    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.
