a person shining a light on so government secrets is a million times more worthy then Obama in getting this award.

The thing is, that never happened. Outside of acknowledging that they talk about each other behind their backs.

And people complained that Obama was a bad choice for the peace prize(and he was a bad choice). He is looking pretty good compared to this nomination.

Nah, Obama was an ass kissingly bad choice too.

Assume you're referring to the incident where the Reuters reporters were killed. The only cluster about that is the fact that Reuters allowed their reproters to embed with insurgents in a combat zone. Its like wanting to experience deer life and dressing up in a deer suit and going out on opening day of hunting season. Remarkably stupid.

these were not imbedded reporters, that is a fabrication
.

an earlier release showed that some prisoners were off-limits to the International Committee of the Red Cross in Guantanamo and the military had to stop denying this fact.

Well, milling about on on the street with a bunch of armed insurgents in an area that had fighting going on in it still fits the analogy I offered. Again, stupid.

As far as Gitmo, so what. Is that some form crime or atrocity?
 
Hard to find worthy individuals in this day and age.
 
The committee better be trolling us all if they announce he were to win it.
 
Bradley's lucky he committed treason during the PC era, otherwise he would have been executed a long time ago. FDR would have hung him immediately.

Yeah. Manning's contribution to "peace in this world" was to steal a bunch of classified documents and send it to that weasel Assuange, so people in the Middle East could see how their own governments have been behaving behind their backs, who then rioted across the Middle East whereupon tens of thousands were killed.

This is almost as bright as nominating a guy who'd only been in office for a week... Obama. The Nobel Peace Prize is officially a sick joke.

Agree. Sadly, I remember when the Peace Prize meant something.

Only true if you look toward "celebrities" and etc. There are everyday heroes everywhere. Some actually become "famous," and I put this in quotes because while "everybody" knows who Lady Gaga is, basically "nobody" knows who Norman Borlaug was.
