Snowden nominated for Nobel Peace Prize

[Luddly Neddite]

Edward Snowden has been nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize

Edward Snowden spent the last year revealing some of the government's most tightly held secrets, kicking off a massive debate about the proper role of America's intelligence services. Now, a pair of Norwegian politicians have nominated the NSA leaker for a Nobel Peace Prize.

In their nomination letter, Baard Vegar Solhjell and Snorre Valen, who hail from the Socialist Left party, said Snowden's revelations "contributed to a more stable and peaceful world order."

I wish we could go back to pre-Bush days. The (not)Patriot Act changed the way we see ourselves and the res of the world and its toothpaste that can never be put back in the tube.

Well, if they can see fit to give Owe Bama a Nobel Peace Prize it doesn't surprise me that they are considering this dirt bag too.

 

[Mr. H.]

What a load of shit.

 

[PredFan]

Hmm....they gave one to Obama, who at the time had done nothing, now, he's proven to be a traitor and the worst president ever. Now they want to give one to Snowden who actually is a hero. Are they trying to correct a mistake?

 

[JakeStarkey]

Obama is not a traitor, the far right are loony, and I am still confused how I feel about what Snowden did. I think I want him given amnesty.

So Jake, you still think anyone cares what you have to say?

Unlike the 2007 and 2009 winners THIS guy actually deserves it 100%

 

[Gracie]

Snitching on the government fucking Americans over? Sure. Give him a prize.
Snitching to OTHER COUNTRIES about what goes on in our government? TRAITOR. Hang him.

He knew enough he could have made a statement without exposing any classified information. He could have dumped some documents to prove a point. What he has done has gone way over the line. I thought amnesty might be fitting but that was a long time ago.

 

[Desperado]

Edward Snowden did more for Freedom in America than Barry Obama ever did.
Definitely deserves it.

 

[Iceweasel]

I think they'll be prying the Nobel Peace prize from his dead cold fingers before long.

Fucking brilliant.

If the Nobel Peace Prize has been given to people like Arafat and Obama ....I don't see any problem for it to be given to Snowden either.

Lets face it, the Nobel Peace Prize is a joke...who will they nominate next? Dennis Rodman ?

Don't laugh just yet ...it might very well come to pass!

 

[Dont Taz Me Bro]

Yeah, he's such a jerk for exposing how our own government was breaking the law and spying on all of us. Why, the nerve of him upsetting Peter King and the neo-cons.

 

[hjmick]

The significance of the Nobel Peace Prize has diminished greatly since 2009...

 

[Iceweasel]

When was it determined that the NSA broke the law?

I wondered how long before some numbnut would try to make this about President Obama.

You win. Nuthin.
