That's Nutty
Reader comment on: The Next Nobel

Submitted by Patrick S Pattillo, Oct 12, 2007 08:56

You would have to sponsor your own award in order for the logic you cite to be applied. You can call it the wingnut award or maybe the "last living person for Bush award."

Evidently those deciding the winner of this prestigious award were not swayed by your logic. Did you ever think that because it was a Peace Prize that they might give it to someone more inclined to end wars than to start them?

Evidently the kind of moral basis that is possessed by grade school children escapes you.

By the way, Gore won. Patraeus was not in the running and your editorial is distinguished only by its nuttiness.
