The thought that one Nobel Peace Prize winner tortured another is simply delicious
http://www.washingtonpost.com/world/europe/231-nominations-for-2012-nobel-peace-prize-including-manning-tymoshenko/2012/02/27/gIQApgeZdR_story.html
OSLO, Norway — The Nobel Peace Prize jury has received 231 nominations for this year’s award, a spokesman said, with publicly disclosed candidates including a former Ukrainian prime minister and the U.S. soldier accused of leaking classified material to WikiLeaks.
The secretive committee doesn’t reveal who has been nominated, but those with nomination rights sometimes announce their picks.
Names put forward this year include Bradley Manning, the U.S. Army private charged with the biggest leak of classified information in U.S. history, Russian human rights activist Svetlana Gannushkina and former Ukrainian Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko.

I might think that the Nobel org might have a tiny shred of credibility if they started revoking their precious prize from people who clearly make a mockery of everything that their so called prize is supposed to be about.

A Swedish court has convicted four teenagers of high treason for throwing a cream cake at King Carl Gustaf.
The four, all aged 16 or 17, were fined in what was the first Swedish treason case in living memory, Sweden's TT news agency said.
In a protest against the monarchy, the youngsters had assembled a strawberry cream cake before one of them threw it in the king's face shouting "For King and Fatherland" during a royal visit to a Swedish park in September.

How come the Outpost didn't nominate anyone? We should definitely submit a name next year.
For this past year, I'd nominate...
