My opinion. Seems the committee is working on "hope" criteria instead of established work as in the past. Maybe he'll justify it in the end, but the "rules" have certainly changed. BTW, John Paul II, the Polish Pope, should be on that list. He exuded peace and love, and spread it where ever he went. You're right he might or might not, but most presidents have far-reaching impact. GWB is an example. Not for good, but his impact on the world was large. I don't think you're a bad person. If I implied that, it was unintentional. I was just kidding. I know I'm not a bad person. Mostly. --Vic I don't know if he deserved it or not. He got it. We should be proud that the Nobel committee thinks so highly of him. That hasn't been case of recent presidents. -- Nom=de=Plume Maybe it was really the NoBalls award. You gotta love her logic. "We should all be proud of nomdeplum because Harry thinks shes the cat's meow." That would be a worthy idea except that Harry's 'blessing' now carries about as much weight as that of the Nobel Committee. I love logic. Try reading what I posted again. Are you or are you not proud that the world thinks better of us? If so, then what diff does it make who got what award. If not, why not? What? Tom's wrong. That can *only* be a female. It's too early to call. |
