Whenever I hear about the Nobel Peace Price, I remember that Arafat won the Peace Price... In a perfect world tho, [George W.] Bush would be be the only real choice to win this award. Maybe in the next world, Mr Bush's ideals will be appreciated.

This blimp has, like GW Bush, kept the peace through blowing things the fuck up, and like Bush is a little slow and also full of hot air.
Y'see? If you're a Christian you can be forgiven for everything. Denial and favoritism being the main process in this forgiveness, apparently.

What? I'm sorry, WHAT? You mean the former President, right? The guy who was, depending on which bits of info you trust, either a cowboy-hat-wearing mental incompetent, a glory-hungry chickenhawk with a platinum spoon in his mouth, or a pathetic figurehead for Mr. Dick "I'm totally not the Devil, guys" Cheney? Who, no matter how you slice it, did the most to destroy the freedoms and rights of the American people out of all our leaders since Nixon - or possibly even McCarthy - and sent thousands of his own people off to die on the other side of the world over NOTHING while pouring money into Saudi Arabia, which has a list of human rights violations longer than both my arms put together?
Don't try to retcon him into some visionary Messiah whose beliefs were resonant with the Creator of All; that's like trying to argue that Lee Harvey Oswald deserved a seat in Heaven for killing JFK because his victim was Catholic.
The man's out of office, the damage is done, and you should be trying to find ways to adapt your values to the brave new world of the 21st century, instead of worshiping a whitewashed idealization of someone who was, at best, an utterly unexceptional rich boy that stumbled into a position of more power and responsibility than he could be trusted with.
Confused?
