Limbaugh, whose daily radio show is heard by more than 20 million people on more than 600 radio stations in the United States and around the world, was nominated for the prestigious award for his "nearly two decades of tireless efforts to promote liberty, equality and opportunity for all humankind, regardless of race, creed, economic stratum or national origin. These are the only real cornerstones of just and lasting peace throughout the world," said Landmark President Mark R. Levin.


"Rush Limbaugh is the foremost advocate for freedom and democracy in the world today," explained Levin. "Everyday he gives voice to the values of democratic governance, individual opportunity and the just, equal application of the rule of law -- and it is fitting that the Nobel Committee recognize the power of these ideals to build a truly peaceful world for future generations."

She's banned, so you'll have to PM her the goods. :ph34r:
So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh
Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright
'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life
Make light!

Anyone can be nominated for it. Neither of those two should win. Gore would have better off being nominated for a Sundance award or something and Rush would have been better off being nominated for a radio award. Neither of these people have done anything to advance peace in the World in 2006.

Far better nominations would have been Bush/Clinton for their continuning efforts at the Tsunimi relief effort or about anyone else.

I'll let you kow what I think once I've stopped laughing!!

Seriously though, a nomination does not mean much of anything, and should certainly not be construed as an acknowledgement from the Nobel committee itself.
Do you want to have an ideagasm?

These aren't by any chance the same people who wrote:
The Patriot Act
Clear Skies initiative,
Healthy Forests initiative,
Fair Pay initiative,

I'm seeing a similar pattern.

so what do they say Rush Limbaugh has accomplished??



He's accomplished what he's set out to do, and I quote:
"I always say my real purpose is to attract the largest audience I can, and hold it for as long as I can, so I can charge confiscatory advertising rates,"
