1. Yeah they're right in the press release, he's all about"promoting equality"

"some of his best friends are Halfricans"

and nominating the guy who said of the middle east "fine, just blow the place up" for the nobel PEACE prize

that's hilarious

This is from MarkLevin's group. He's that guy who pals around with Hannity who's debting tactic amounts to screaming at people to shut up in his annoying nail-on-a-chalkboard nasally voice

2. you've got to be kidding me!

OMG! How can such a hatemonger-er possibly be nominated for a PEACE prize? Do you think that they felt that they had to nominate one of their own because of Al's (rightful) nomination?

3. I think it was the Nobel PIECE (of shit) prize (nt)

[WI_DEM]

4. it's easy to nominate, but not so easy to actually win it.

8. The truly funny thing is they CAN'T nominate him!!

They might think they can nominate him, but no dipshit legal organization headed by Levin is able to nominate ANYONE to the Nobel Committee. A quick Google search revealed this site;

9. Hmmm. If that's the case expect a nomination committee from

some place like Bob Jones, Hillsdale College, Liberty University or Regent University sometime soon.

5. In Repug BizzaroWorld this makes perfect sense.

6. can't think of a more deserving fellow...

how he transcends partisanship to appeal to the best in us, one and all. I think of his "moving" tribute to Michael J Fox. Given his relationship with Daryn Kagen, I would second the nomination for a no belle piece prize.

7. RUSH TO JUDGEMENT

Like Keith Olbermann always says...."comedian Rush Limbaugh"


so this is comedy right?

10. I didn't know there was a Nobel for Most Execrable.
