10. haha :). had i known, i would have quoted it among the nominations. n/t

[Cirque du So-What]

8. Still Barack Obama

Sorry, but the Nobel committee fucked up when they put me in a position to choose. I had skin in this game, so I chose MY Prez! The opportunity to make conservatroid heads explode was just too sweet to pass up.

[ayeshahaqqiqa]

9. Dennis Kucinich n/t

[timtom]

18. Second that!

[TxRider]

12. Prince El Hassan bin Talal of Jordan

He is doing a lot of very good work fighting religious extremism and militancy in the middle east.

People demand moderate Muslims address Muslim extremism, he's doing it in the biggest way he can.

[demoleft]

16. was he in the list of nominations, if you know? can't find a complete list anywhere. n/t

[TxRider]

17. Supposedly he was yes.

They keep the list secret for 50 years.

But nominators often reveal who they nominated.

He was widely considered nominated and among the top choices.

He has won numerous peace prizes, but our media isn't likely to ever even mention him.

[demoleft]

19. no indeed, i suppose he's not much mentioned. thanx. n/t

[Thickasabrick]

13. Queen Noor of Jordan nt

[safeinOhio]

14. HRC

Add to reaaaaalllly pissing off Rush.:thumbsup:

[BlooInBloo]

15. lololol!

[RB TexLa]

21. No one. Tell the world it is not being awarded this year because there isn't anyone who deserves.

[niceypoo]

22. ACORN

[emilyg]

23. LOL

[bigwillq]

24. I thought we were going to give it to a DUer.

:shrug:

I pick other.

Jackeens.

[demoleft]

34. my mistake, the title is misleading indeed. hehe. but if it was a DUers contest...

...i should virtually give nominations to 148,139 people ;)
give me a top ten of nominations for a DU Nobel Prize, and we'll do that.

ciao from italy :hi:

[Incitatus]

25. Robb

is a dingbat

[omega minimo]

26. Viggo Mortensen

[Sebastian Doyle]

27. Thom Hartmann

I considered Mike Malloy, but he would be the first one to tell you he's not interested in peace with those "goddamned criminal Republican sons of bitches".

[flvegan]

28. Ingrid Newkirk.

You know, founder/pres of PETA.

Just for the exploding heads of my favorite DUers.

[LeftyMom]

30. You are such a shit starting asshole.

:rofl: I'd give you an award for that, but this is GD so you have to try harder.

[cherokeeprogressive]

29. Luna! Poor moon...

[Vattel]

32. Sarah Palin

For resigning and seriously damaging her chances of ever holding public office again.
