The examples of bat-shit crazy stupidity in Oslo keep mounting.
Army Pfc. Bradley Manning has been nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize, the Associated Press reports. Manning is most famous for allegedly leaking troves of classified documents, including State Department cables and Military files, to WikiLeaks. He was arraigned last week in Ft. Meade, Maryland and is being charged with “engineering the biggest leak of classified information in U.S. history.”
Julian Assange, the founder of WikiLeaks who allegedly received the leaked information from Manning, was nominated last year for the award, though he did not ultimately receive it.

I would say that they’ve got to be fuckin’ joking but the Nobel Peace Prize has become such a parody with recipients like Obama, Gore and Carter, that nothing they do surprises anymore. Manning will never get the prize but too much credence is given to a committee of five Norwegians who may or may not have any common sense, and who as of late, have bestowed the award based on some delusional, warped idea of ‘social justice’.
