#1 Seeing some of the past winners, I don't doubt this for a fuckin second...

#2 What's the problem, Frank? She fits right in there with Jimmy Carter and Yasser Arafat.

#4 Are you surprized? No, I mean, really surprized, not just in a "gee, I thought about it often, but I wasn't really serious" way?

#6 I just read about Nobel prizes this week - you can't nominate yourself, and no one knows who was in the running.

Which suggests she's as crazy as we all thought, or her nominator told her - which just might wreck the deal, anyway. (Ihopeihopeihope)

#8 Should Sheehan win, this will certainly be the biggest boost to the prize committee's credibility since they awarded Yasser Arafat. Who's the next front-runner, Ahmadinejad?

#10 She hasn't got the body count to win. Peace Prize requires as blood on your hands as shit in your brains.

#13 Nah, she'll be edged out by Adam Gedahn.

I wasn't aware that either of them smoked.

#16 The Nobels for the sciences are still respectable. The Nobels for Literature and "Peace" have been politicized and a joke for years.

#17 (re - pic from RD:)

I hereby nominate her for the next episode of Nip/Tuck...

#18 CS, it fits, don't it? Alfred Nobel invented dynamite (and his brother was killed in their home explosives factory).

#19 Jeebus. I hope for sake of our species that her(?) face was photoshopped. But I fear not.

#20 P.S. At first I thought it was ex-Eagle Joe Walsh on a particularly bad hair day.

#23 #10 "She hasn't got the body count to win. Peace Prize requires as blood on your hands as shit in your brains."

Recall that a previous winner, Rigoberta Menchu, didn't have any blood on her hands either. She fabricated her life story and of course was (and still is) a thorough-going communist asshat.
