Is Cindy Sheehan the World’s Best Hope for Peace?
Most right-thinking Americans were startled when Cindy Sheehan announced that she was a finalist for the Nobel Peace Prize. Sheehan made her immodest announcement at a book-signing appearance in Texas last week.
Go here:
Nominating Sheehan for the prestigious award is not completely outrageous when placed in the proper context. In other words, Sheehan as a finalist for the Nobel Peace Prize is akin to the following nominations:
* Osama bin Laden: Most peace-loving and amicable Muslim.
* Kim Yong Il: Most trustworthy Asian leader.
* Mahmoud Ahmadinejad: Greatest advocate on behalf of Israel and Jews.
* Bill Clinton: Most honest politician in U.S. History.
* John Murtha: Most inspirational to U.S. troops serving in harm’s way.
* Hillary Clinton: Second most honest politician in U.S. History.
* Harry Reid: Third most honest politician in U.S. History.
* Teddy Kennedy: Most sober and respected senator in Washington, D.C.
* Barbra Streisand: Most intelligent, well-informed, vocalist in America.
* Vicente Fox: Leader with greatest respect for U.S. borders and laws.
* Mark Foley: Most wholesome role model for teenage boys.
* Madonna: Most wholesome role model for teenage girls.
* New York Times: Most unbiased and objective news coverage.
* Katie Couric: Most qualified anchor on major network news.
* Al Franken: Most interesting talk show host in America.
* Jimmy Carter: Best president in U.S. History.
Is it possible that Cindy Sheehan–a creation of the leftist mainstream Media—is really the best hope that six billion humans have for world peace?

It depends on your definition of peace. If one defines peace as simply an absence of conflict, then she might fit the current left-wing concept. Jimmy “peace through surrender” Carter is a former recipient, and they seem to be cut from similar cloth.
If one’s definition of peace includes “superior firepower”, then she is is an abomination form the get-go.
Pacifism is objectively pro-Fascist. This is elementary common sense. If you hamper the war effort of one side you automatically help out that of the other. –George Orwell
