Why didn't George W. Bush and Richard Cheney win the Nobel Peace Prize?
1.) Jeb Bush and Katherine Harris did not have control over who voted.
2.) The Nobel Committee does not vote using black boxes with secret Republican code.
3.) James Baker's request to file a suit in the United States Supreme Court to change the outcome was denied.

OH, I almost forgot. They are WAR CRIMINALS!

Please help add any items to the list you think will be useful to the wingnut commentators today.

2. If the candidates for the Nobel Peace Prize had narrowed to a choice between Hitler and George Bush,
Hitler would have won.

HE hasn't killed anyone in over fifty years.

4. Because it's the Nobel Peace Prize
I heard they came in second for the Nobel Piece Prize. That goes to the person who causes the most death and destruction -- That prize was won by Multi-National Oil Companies (AGAIN)

8. The vast left-wing conspiracy
was just too powerful.

I watch 5 minutes of Fixed Noise this morning. They showed their typical partisan leanings by trashing GOre, the UN the Nobel Committee and on and on. BUt if they really believe the BS they are spewing perhaps they need to ask themselves a different question: Why is GW Bush hated so much that the Nobel Committee would use Al Gore to slap him upside the head? If they want to make it about Bush, they should be asking why.

12. They are parading out Reagan, not Bush. But this is the question they must confront.
You nailed it. This is a huge slap to a huge war criminal.
