Should we conduct a preemptive strike against the country of Nobel?

Duderino, we agree in so far we disagree with the war mongers. But I have to tell you, be careful with the Nobel. Many who have it don;t deserve it. Of course many do deserve it.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez and Octavio Paz deserve it.
Yasser Arafat deserved it.... if only because of being the representative of the Palestinian people. The deserve the price collectively for withstanding all these years of occupation.
Henry Kissinger on the other hand... well, the only thing that man deserve is to be tried for war crimes and crimes against humanity at the Hague.
You see, it is an issue to be handled with care. While some are deserving recipients, others are not.
This world is clouded by the deceit of empire.... those who love truth must be doubly aware.
The rest of you.... you seem quite happy that your country rapes and robs the third world. You have no shame and therefore do not merit my attention.

When they do something worthy of the praise they too will be eligible...but remember it is called Nobel Peace Prize....maybe Nobel should have had a second prize celebrating his invention and call it the "Dynamite Destruction Award" and George could be a "con" recipient for the most destruction in the world....I know I will be corrected if I am wrong, but didn't Henry Kissinger win the prize?

The Nobel Prize is non-political. It has nothing to do with which party someone belongs to, and in fact, is a global institution that has nothing to do with the politics of any given country.
As far as nominees, that's up to the Nobel committee, based on what they think is a globally recognized achievement. If you want to have a different prize with different standards, go ahead.

Doesn't that kind of show where the beliefs of Cons stand in the world order?
How can so many countries be wrong?
LOL, I answered a question with questions.

The Nobel Peace Prize is nothing more than a popularity contest anyway. It really doesn't mean that much.

No, you gotta be for peace to be nominated and they don't give a Nobel War Prize - even though the Nobels made their fortune off war, death and destruction.

No that means we should question the intelligence of cons in the government specifically the ones in the Whitehouse.

Of course just like Kerry's medals and Sen. Max Clelland's loss of three limbs in Vietnam (he was smeared as careless for picking up the grenade that blew his limbs off and Republican ads lumped him with bin Laden). The nobel prize comes from one of those wimpy socialist Euro countries anyway, so it's not worth the fake metal is stamped on.

They're a notoriously liberal bunch who lost all credibility when they gave a peace prize to Arafat.
