Disclaimer: I'm just an average guy...
After beginning her rousing speech by asking the audience to "hug everyone around them," Nobel Prize winner Betty Williams of Ireland proved her merit for the prestigious award by saying she would like to kill George W. Bush... in a "non-violent" way, of course.
This is nothing new. She said the same thing a year ago, except her audience was a group of school children. There's a good lesson. If you don't like the President's policy, you should want to kill him. It shouldn't surprise us though. Yassar Arafat is a Nobel laureate as well.
In other highlights from her speech, she said that President Bush has "acted unconstitutionally." Like any Liberal making this charge (even Irish ones), she can't cite any specific Article or Section of the Constitution that's been violated. I guess it's just easier to fool people that way.
She also said, "The Muslim world is suffering beyond belief." That, of course, is President Bush's fault, and not the warring Muslim sects (i.e. Sunni v. Shia or Fatah v. Hamas) running around blowing each other up, along with any civilians they can catch in the cross fire.
Then she added, "Unless the President of the United States is held responsible for what he's doing and what he has done, there's no one in the Muslim world who will for give him." Right... and we all know how forgiving Muslims are once you apologize and give them what they want. Just ask Israel.
And just to top it all off, Williams declared, "It's hard to be an American and go out into the world right now." Because no one knows better how difficult it is to be an American than a Nobel Prize winner from Ireland...
