Just goes to show what a pathetic joke the Nobel Peace Prize truly is ... just a bunch of unserious leftists patting one another on the back with meaningless accolades. Kind of like the goofy U.N. that is currently entertaining the adoption of a report praising the human rights record of the former government of deposed Libyan ruler Muammar Gaddafi. BWHA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!! They're all a bunch of whacked-out loons!

Bill Clinton, Bradley Manning among Nobel Peace Prize candidates

A TOTAL of 231 nominees are up for the Nobel Peace Prize this year, with Bill Clinton, Helmut Kohl, the European Union and US soldier and WikiLeaks suspect Bradley Manning known to be on the list.

"As always, there are the usual 'nominees' and some newcomers, some famous and some unknowns, hailing from the four corners of the world," the head of the Nobel Institute, Geir Lundestad, said today.

With 188 individuals and 43 organisations, the number of candidates comes close to last year's record of 241, when the prestigious award went to Liberian President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, Liberian activist Leymah Gbowee and Yemeni "Arab Spring" activist Tawakkol Karman.

Thousands of people are eligible to submit nominations, including members of parliaments and governments worldwide, university professors, past laureates and members of several international institutes, who had until February 1 to propose candidates.
