The nobel prize is an award given to someone who has achieve excellence in their profession... hense the nobel prize for physics or the nobel prize for chemestry or the nobel prize for biology. The nobel prize is not limited to the nobel peace prize as you suggest. It was mearly expanded to include peace from its original form.

It was named after nobel for inventing dynamite because the invention of dynamite changed the face of the earth, not just in war but in every aspect imaginable. We could not build bridges or tunnels or highways without dynamite. Dynamite has been considered one of the greatest inventions of the modern world.

You don't know me, but I know someone who knows you...and that whole thing is, well, it's exactly how you put it. I'd say WTF pretty much covers it. Thanks for further evidence that leadership as we know it surely needs to change.

Bush and Blair are nominees for the Nobel peace prize and you post WTF. I suppose you had no problem when Arafat, the man who invented modern day terrorism, was nominated for the prize.

You cannot have peace in the middle east as long as there are people like Hussein, who shot scud missles into israel during the first gulf war in an attempt to get muslim extremists involved,ruling nations capable of producing WMDs.

Saddam had over a decade to disarm and prove he had done so. He didn't. The so called "rush to war" was more like a slow crawl. I know you would rather believe Saddam was a misunderstood dictator who wasn't a threat but kept lying to UN inspectors out of pride. However, those who called Bush a liar, like Joe Wilson, have been discredited and our brave soldiers have found plenty of evidence that Saddam wasn't just a brutal dictator but he was a potential threat to that region as well as the US.

I know I know "Saddam didn't attack us, Bin Laden did." Do you honestly believe that Al Queda is the only terrorist group in the world who wants to see americans killed? Do you think for one minute that if Saddam had been allowed to remain in power that he wouldn't have eventually been able to aggressively continue his weapons programs that we know were still ongoing?

Because of our invasion, Quaddafi turned over all of his weapons programs and now we are learning that our so-called allies the French were up to their eyeballs in a corrupt arrangement with the UN and Saddam.

Nobody likes war and no president sends troops into harms way unless he believes it is for a just cause. The idea that this president sent in troops for oil is not only preposterous, it is a disgusting insult spewed from the mouths of hateful degenerates.

Blair and Bush were nominated beacuse their actions in Iraq and Afghanistan have shown the world that free loving nations led by strong leaders will not tolerate terrorism or those who support it. Helping to end terrorism is a most noble cause and a clear objective on the road to peace.

  • : Jet Li's Hero

    Jet Li's Hero
    Hero seems unrestrained directorially leading to many great and equally weak moments. Fans of the genre should enjoy this, but do not go in expecting Crouching Tiger. The plot is not very compelling and confusing at that. Fight choreography is decent in some scenes, while fairly canned and unimaginative in others. Worth seeing for fans of such films, but unsatisfying overall. (***)

  • : Meet the Fockers

    Meet the Fockers
    A perfectly acceptable follow up to Meet the Parents. Somehow I just can't dislike Dustin Hoffman. Ben Stiller on the other hand tests my patience. I'm only thankful that he has become so type-cast that his staying power will be limited. This film was a more lewd than the first, and there is no shortage of cheap cracks and ridiculous situations. I went in expecting very little, but I was satisfied to get a few laughs. Big fans of the first film will enjoy this, while others won't be missing anything groundbreaking. (***)

  • : Darkness

    Darkness
    This movie makes little sense, and what sense it DOES make leaves way too many WTF? moments. The scare tactics employed in this film are repetitive and unimaginative -- Ominous silhouettes and fluctuating power get old after awhile. The scariest moment in the film was also ruined by crappy special effects. Plot twists are also attempted, but fail because they're too predictable. If you HAVE to see this movie, wait to rent it.

  • The Decemberists: Picaresque

    The Decemberists: Picaresque
    I downloaded this CD a few months back when I was on an Iron & Wine kick, and never took the time to listen. Some friends of mine recommended them recently, and boy am I pleased they did. Tracks from this album are now in frequent rotation among my 9,000. Thank you iTunes + iPod. Everyone should have a listen. I'll be interested to hear what you think. Although I have downloaded their entire catalog...I am left wanting more. (*****)

  • Tatu: 200 Km/H in the Wrong Lane

    Tatu: 200 Km/H in the Wrong Lane
    Shit! ... I Mean TOTAL shit... but fun shit. And NO of course I didn't pay for it. I may be an idiot but I sure as hell wouldn't pay for this shit. (*)

  • Snow Patrol: Final Straw

    Snow Patrol: Final Straw
    British Indie rockers... at times they have a sigur ros meets radiohead meets coldplay kind of thing going on...though it does get a little "poppy" at times. I enjoy most but not all of this album. Though the single "Run" appears to be growing in popularity among the mainstream... decent sounding track. (***)
