She covers, and comments on it quite well, so I thought I would pass it along.

=======================================

Mark Steyn's "typically snubbing manner"?, eh?

Hmmm, shouldn't questionable grammar be illegal, too? (After all, it "offends" me and may even inspire me to commit a "hate crime" myself one of these days.) Ya gotta love that mysterious free floating "they".

What about poor spelling, like "blatent"? "Querries"?

How about getting your facts wrong, like stating that the "Free Mark Steyn" blog was started by Mark Steyn when it wasn't? In fact, a five-second google reveals it to be the brainchild of the intrepid "binkie".

Worse, stating that "Muslims are the biggest victims of hate crimes today."

When in fact they are the biggest perps of fake hate crimes today.

Luckily for us all, non-lawyers were availabe to, you know, actually check the FBI data:

Anti-Black 3,136
Anti-Jewish 1,027
Anti-White 1,008
Anti-Male Homosexual 881
Anti-Hispanic 770
Anti-Female Homosexual 192
Anti-Islamic 191

Now, here on Planet Normal, when something is at the bottom of a list, that means it is the smallest thing on the list. But I don't have a law degree so I obviously don't know what the hell I'm on about.

Cliche watch: ignorance of the law is indeed no excuse. However, contempt for ridiculous, fascistic laws is a noble tradition.

Steyn isn't ignorant. He is contemptuous and rightly so.

"Hate crime" laws are stupid and need to be protested. Hate is a feeling and feelings can't be crimes (unless you're one of the twisted liberals at blogs like these).

And note the pedantic, snooty little side trip to define "slander". No, you morons: Steyn is asking aloud whether speaking in a "typically snubbing manner" (whatever that is) will one day be actionable too, if twits like you get to rule the nation. He's not wondering whether or not you slandered him.

God, the nimble minds at work here.

Aren't you glad these guys will one day be helping you sell your home and divorce your wife and get outta jail?

Oh, then they say it is just "matter of time" before some hatemonger attributes his violent actions to Steyn's words.

Look out! Some purely imaginary asshole from the unknowable Philip K. Dick future may shirk responsibility for his crimes and blame Steyn, or Twinkies.

(Oh wait, that was the past, and it really happened. Know why? A lawyer thought up the Twinkie defence and a crazy guy got 5 years in jail for killing two politicians. Another highlight in humanity's moral evolution, brought to you by... a lawyer.)

But no matter: Let's harrass Mark Steyn rather than just laughing at the (imaginary) killer (of the imaginary future) then locking him up. In Future Jail. Unless he ate Twinkies.

Welcome to the Magical Land of Upside Down inhabited by attorneys and other brainwashed Establishment dorks. That they presume to pronounce upon important matters when they're too lazy and stupid to get their facts or even their words right tells you all you need to know.

Gore Wins Nobel: Proves it is a joke.

Yup.

alGore won his peace prize.

Trophy and cash in hand:


Congratulations alGore. Enjoy the prize that is now deemed no better than a 25cent plastic ring from a gum ball machine.

Some previous examples of esteemed Nobel Peace Prize winners:

Mohamed Elbaradei: Yeah, that guy. He and the IAEA are complete failures at everything they do. Yet they are awarded a prize for promoting peace. Bullshit. It was a political award pure and simple. That is all it is.

From Timesonline regarding his award:

In the past eight years, they have failed to detect covert nuclear programmes in at least three countries - and failed to get diplomatic purchase on the problems when others have finally brought them to light. That does not amount to a contribution to world peace.

Jimmah Cahtuh: Do I really need to explain the asininity of this one? This guy wants to bugger Hugo Chavez fer fucks sake.

Rigoberta Menchu Tum: The notorius Guatemalan liar and author of I, Rigoberta Menchu, which was her autobiography found to be almost completely fabricated.

To prove my point that the truth does not matter to leftoids: When she was outed as a liar and found to have fabricated her book, the professors and advocates of Rigoberta were UPSET! Mad, I tell you! Mad at whom though? Well, mad at the anthropologist that exposed her for what she was. Then!!! Then, they pulled out their usual sleeve card and started crying Racist Bastard! They claimed that the "racists" were trying to discredit a great humanitarian and writer who should be held in high regard because she won the "Peace Prize". pfft.

Yasser Arafat: Just as bad as Jimmah. I don't have to explain this one. terrorist ftw!!!!


Kofi Anan and the U.N.: Okie Dokie! Nothing to see here, just move along, ignore the rapes, child prostitution and oil-for-food, and nevermind the nepotism, and...and well you get the point.


Now that you know how political and useless the award has become, let me at least present to you a few of the winners that actually deserved it:

ELIE WIESEL , U.S.A., Chairman of 'The President's Commission on the Holocaust'. Author, humanitarian.
LECH WALESA , Poland. Founder of Solidarity, campaigner for human rights.
MOTHER TERESA , India, Leader of the Order of the Missionaries of Charity.
DOCTORS WITHOUT BORDERS (MÉDECINS SANS FRONTIÈRES), Brussels, Belgium.
MARTIN LUTHER KING JR. , leader of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, campaigner for civil rights.
COMITÉ INTERNATIONAL DE LA CROIX-ROUGE (INTERNATIONAL COMMITTEE OF THE REDCROSS) Geneva, founded 1863.

Those are some of the "real" winners, and the most deserving. Most everyone else was political and a complete joke.

For a prize that could really, truly be used to bring peace in certain areas of the world, it is sad to see it degraded so. Thus I have decided to rename it for what it is:

The Nobel PieceOfShit Prize

Congrats alGore, on your peaceofshit.
