Noble Beats Nobel

by Rowan Scarborough - December 9th, 2009 - Human Events

The Nobel Peace Prize is supposed to recognize and reward contributions to world peace. But, for decades, the Prize Committee has made the award a tool of left-wing politics and UN chicanery, risibly awarding the prize to recipients including the late Yassir Arafat, a terrorist, global warmist Al Gore and now President Obama, in recognition of what they believe are Obama’s good intentions and not for anything he has accomplished to date.

HUMAN EVENTS believes there are people who actually do contribute to our nation’s peace and prosperity far more than the Nobel recipients. From this year forward, we will recognize those who actually accomplish great tasks in the cause of peace, and do so to contrast vividly their achievements to those of the Nobelists.

You can be sure that the liberals in the Democrat Party will go ballistic when they read this article. Democrats have accepted that weakness is the same as peace for some time. They do not accept peace through strength. Crawling has become their only recogniztion of acceptable behavior.
