What a hypocritical POS. This Nobel Peace Prize winner, Betty Williams, says "right now, I could kill George Bush. No, I don't mean that. How could you nonviolently kill somebody? I would love to be able to do that." First she says she didn't say it. But when confronted with audio, she admitted it. What a POS. She comes and spews her venom in the very city that will have the Bush library. Threatening the president of the United States is a crime. And a lot of us don't like "Nobel Peace Prize laureates" having the gall to threated our president. http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcon...N-peace_12nat.ART.State.Edition1.43b8067.html
Advocating impeachment and the like is one thing - saying you could kill someone is something else. When people let something like this just pop out of their mouth, it indicates what that person's mindset is REALLY like - despite everything else they say. For someone who is supposedly so dedicated to peace, such a comment is inexcusable. And we should note that this is the second time she's said this. She should be stripped of the Peace Prize.
I agree. I could not believe this story. I had to read it twice. Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
The titles/awards/recognition that comes from the world means nothing when one has found true love -- the source of all love. - Christenstein
Genji, you miss the point of this thread. What you write is a subjective position that can't reasonably taken by someone who is a pacifist and is being recognized as such...
Bush is currently one of the biggest threats to peace on the planet. I don't blame her for wishing he was no more.
Such is the way of a menstruous woman. "The way of the wicked is as darkness: they know not at what they stumble." - Proverbs 4:19
This woman just won a prize named after the guy who invented and made a fortune off of dynamite. Wherever he is I'm sure Mr. Nobel got a chuckle out of her little remark.
If any man says he hates war more than I do, he better have a knife, that's all I have to say." - Jack Handey
I guess ever since they gave the thing to Yasser Arafat, they must not care what sort of thoughts float thru the gaping void which might constitute the recipient's cranium. I mean - speaking of gaping voids, Jimmy Carter split the prize with Yassey baby, didn't he ? In any event, I'm sure this woman is merely a Joe Biden aficionado, as she has apparently adopted the same modus operandi - Sometimes it's 'open mouth, insert foot,' she said. Indeed...
Correction - a guy who made explosives safer to handle in industry. Dynamite was invented to prevent deaths from nitroglycerine, which was the staple blasting medium prior to dynamite.
I think it's generally agreed that Bush deserves the worst the world has to offer, but instead he has the best. I'd forgive her for not thinking before speaking. I do that too, with subjects that make me emotional, as US politics will tend to do to a peace lover.
Sometimes justice is not served by death. In Bush's case I'd like to see a life sentence of living in a trailer and working 40 hours a week as a Wal-Mart greeter. In that case I'd wish him a long, long life.
