President George Bush, British Prime Minister Tony Blair and the European Union were among known nominees for the 2004 Nobel Peace Prize as the nomination deadline expired Sunday. Satire is once again declared dead. |
I just got an AP story relating how Dubya and Tony Blair have been nominated for a Nobel Peace prize for their good works in liberating Iraq. Reading this led me to dig up a little piece I read on the radio a year ago when Bush named Henry Kissinger to head up the 'independent' 911 commission.

Bulletin:
This is Albert Likona with the new news behind the news. Who knew?
This just in: Satire, which died an ignominious death some years ago when war criminal Henry Kissinger was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, was disinterred from its resting place last week and re-animated by the Dr. Frankenstein-like minions of President-select Bush in a macabre ceremony.
As Bush announced that he had selected the head of Kissinger Associates, a consulting firm that connects corrupt multi-national corporations with brutal dictators around the world to head an independent panel to investigate the particulars surrounding the terrorist attack on the United States on September 11, 2001, Satire, still looking groggy from it's decades-long-but-not-quite-eternal sleep, let out an incredible banshee-like shriek of pain and horror that was found to have curdled milk as far as 3 miles away before collapsing in its newly opened coffin. Satire, once again, was pronounced not only merely
dead, but really quite sincerely dead. |
