Irena Sendler (the true peace prize winner)

A bit of sad news has been reported. Irena Sendler a Peace prize nominee has died at the age of 98. Now who is Irena Sendler you ask? She was a social worker in Nazi occupied Poland who risked her life to save thousands of children from the brutal hand of the nazis and the SS. In 1943 she arrested and tortured for helping Jews. She told her captors that she would rather die than reveal her network. She is a true hero and a person truly deserving of the peace prize. In 2007 she was nominated for the Nobel peace prize only to have spoiled brat Al Gore junior, whose only claim to fame is he's the son a US Senator and a Senator himself, through politics and the betrayal by the dishonorable Nobel committee steal the prize from her. I was really angry when I heard that Al gore got the peace prize. What did he do to deserve it? What sacrifices did he make to win it? Whose lives ,at extreme risk to his own, did he save? Why is he, a spoiled brat son of a US Senator and a former senator himself more deserving of the Peace Prize than a 98 year old woman who risked torture and execution to save 2,500 Jewish children from the Nazis? How much did Al Gore pay for the prize? What makes her sacrifice less important than an admitted one world socialist? Because of this injustice I say forget the Nobel committee and lets nominate her for a better prize, the Congressional Gold Medal, the Presidential Medal of Freedom, or better yet lets name a carrier after her, because a USS Irena Sendler CVN-80 is far better than a corrupt Nobel Peace Prize.
