Great work! I kept hearing that phrase, "Nobel Peace Prize Nominee". But even if he had won the prize, so what? Arafat won it too. It means nothing.
National Review Online and others have been covering this issue. Tookie has been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize by several anti-death penalty activist professors as part of a concerted effort to keep him from getting what he deserves. Another idiot nominated him for the Nobel Prize for Literature for the same reason.
Maybe Phil is sweet on tookie? Ya never know :)
Is this the same guy who nominated Jimmah Carter?
Do you have a link to any of the articles?

The Nobel peace Prize became insignificant and lost most of its credibility when they gave it to that murdering terrorist, Yassir Arafat. It lost the rest of it when they awarded it to Jimmy Carter.
Sean Hannity had on that loud mouth attorney Leo Terrell the other night talking about this case...
Hannity kept asking him WHY Tookie should get any mercy...and all Terrell would say, over and over...was the Tookie is a Nobel Peace Prize nominee...
As if that was the ONLY reason necessary...LOL
2nd look at Bush service award White House panel unaware honoree was on Death Row
Snip
A White House council on volunteerism said Friday it's taking another look at how the President's Call to Service Award -- accompanied by a laudatory letter from President Bush -- was issued to Stanley "Tookie" Williams, a California Death Row inmate who has written a series of books warning young people against the gang life.
A spokesman for the President's Council on Service and Civic Participation said that neither the council nor Bush had any way of knowing that the person they were honoring was a condemned multiple murderer.
: The presidential citation, which arrived last week, was a lifetime award for more than 4,000 hours of volunteer service. Williams was nominated by William Harrison, an archbishop in the Old Catholic Orthodox Church in West Monroe, La.
The letter signed by Bush said, in part, "Through service to others, you demonstrate the outstanding character of America and help strengthen our country. ... Americans continue to serve and are part of the gathering momentum of millions of acts of kindness and decency that are changing America, one heart and soul at a time. Your actions contribute to this change."
LOL. This is hilarious. My guess is they were self-published because a publisher wouldn't touch this track record with a ten-foot pole. It costs a lot of money to self-publish .... I wonder where he got the money.
Just about anybody could have. Just as anybody can nominate Bobbby Rydell to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame! Oh, Bobby!
You can nominate a ham sandwich for the Nobel Peace prize as long as somebody has choked and died on a piece of the ham. Nobel prizes are just another Commie joke on humanity.
Email sent.
No, not apparently to me. Let's call 'em as we see 'em.... He[Gasper], no doubt, is a card-carrying, walking/talking COMMUNIST.
And I hope Tookie dies a slow, painful death, and I hope he "gurgles" just like his vicitm did in the 7-11 execution, as he drowned in his own blood.
Tookie thought that gurgling sound was "funny?" I'd show him FUNNY!
What I don't understand about the "Save Tookie" crowd, is they all say he has atoned for his past mistakes, and is truly sorry. But from all I have read he has never admitted to the murders he was convicted of, in fact he has never admitted to any crimes at all, except the fact that he founded the crips. IMHO, his pleas for clemency would carry a lot more weight if he would admit to ALL his crimes, apologize to his victims and be truly contrite about his life. It's just another liberal Janet Reno, saying the buck stops here, but not admitting there was anything with Waco.
From what I have heard, Tookie is "sorry" for having been a co-founder of the Crips and his books are "proof" of his repentance. He still maintains his innocence when it comes to the murders.
A S. Calif. congressman just nominated KFI's Bill Handel as a joke. The nominator is kept secret for 50 years. My guess would be Maxine Waters.
