1. It'll (almost) never happen, anyway.
Do you have a feeling it's possible? It's pretty clear that they've done nothing to make the world more peaceful. You'd think Europeans would be marching in the streets at the notion of a nomination....

2. Well, The Nobel Committee
Has given prizes in the past to such champions of world peace as Yassir Arafat and Henry Kissinger.

3. Here's what I said...
George W. Bush and Tony Blair nominated for the most prestigious peace prize on the face of the earth? You've got to be kidding! How much did they pay you?

5. What is this? An annual and automatic ritual where B&B are nominated
for the Peace Prize, and it's not in the spirit of satirical irony?

I'm sure they can't steal THIS election; they couldn't last year.

6. Yep, kinda like the Reagan "name-anything-after" movement
and one specific congresswoman who leads off every session trying to rid the world of ABSOLUTELY EVERY POSSIBLE ABORTION.

7. How about a nomination
for the IgNobel Award? They are both much better suited for that.

10. It's the same guy nominating them. He's completely nuts.
One of the partners in fascism.
