The European Union? Say it ain’t so!
Unfortunately, it is….
OSLO, Norway (AP) – The European Union won the Nobel Peace Prize on Friday for promoting peace and democracy in Europe – an honor that came as 27-nation bloc was struggling with its biggest crisis since it was created in the 1950s.
The Norwegian prize committee said the EU was being honored Friday for six decades of contributions “to the advancement of peace and reconciliation, democracy and human rights in Europe.”
“The stabilizing part played by the European Union has helped to transform a once-torn Europe from a continent of war to a continent of peace,” Nobel committee chairman Thorbjoern Jagland said.
A “continent of peace,” they say. And Islam is a “Religion of Peace.” Notice the similarities there. Geert Wilders had something to say about this development:
“Nobel prize for the EU. At a time Brussels and all of Europe is collapsing in misery. What next? An Oscar for Van Rompuy?”
I have a feeling this Van Rompuy guy will be accepting the award in Oslo! It seems ‘natural’, doesn’t it. And the hallowed corridors of Brussels will break forth their “national anthem”:
“We Elites from High in Brussels
Shove decrees right up your butt
We will tell you to enjoy it,
Watch us as we bust our nut!
Then we’ll pass the laws that will tell you
How to eat, to drink, get fit.
You will scream and shout and complain,
We won’t even give a shit!”
Yet one more reason to write off the Nobel Peace Prize….
