    Maybe next year Sen. Ted Kennedy will win it. He's been a driving force for universal health care and education for decades.

    People that keep saying this don't deserve to ever be able to vote because you apparently don't study the candidates.

    Yup...I did. I was considering the past winners mentioned, those who are at the very least Liberal and likely not to cause Col. Khaddaffy any trouble. I would have said Pres. Carter but he won the Noble Peace Prize last year. I thought that would take him out of the running for a while.

    But now that you mention it, the Khaddaffy Peace Prize is a bit oxymoronic.

    Hugo Chavez keeps the American syndicate busting corporation out of Venezuella, especially the mining and fruit corps. That's why the US stirred up the country. But the socialist leader got re-elected and Us lost all hopes.

    Khaddafi is an asshole trying to get attention. But I appreciate his objection of a USA yoke.

    By the way, CNN is a misleading channel. They have broadcasted unrelated footage many times, expecially during the 1st gulf war.

    Finally, Joseph Göbells award belongs to the Bush family... after all, they saved the concentration camps and helped the german war machine. Business is business, you know.

    I really wouldn't be surprised if they had frozen his brain and are using it now to think up new ways to spread their lies.

    I take it this is probably a joke but the link isn't working. I am curious what people have against Chavez and what exactly his recored is with reguards to human rights. Most of the articles I read about him are positive.

    this is the article (if it still does not work >


    CARACAS, Venezuela (Reuters) -- Libya Sunday awarded its annual Moammar Gadhafi human rights prize to Venezuelan president Hugo Chavez for resisting "imperialism" and being a champion of the poor.

    A citation accompanying the award, named after Libya's leader, Gadhafi, was read by a Libyan delegation attending a live television and radio show hosted by Chavez.

    It praised the Venezuelan leader's "brave heart, intelligent mind, eloquent oratory and firm hand."

    Populist Chavez, who has accused the U.S. government of trying to overthrow him, calls his left-wing government a revolution that tries to help the poor by providing them with free health and education programs.

    His opponents accuse him of ruling like a dictator, persecuting political enemies and trying to turn the world's No. 5 oil exporter into a replica of Communist Cuba.

    "I feel bathed in honor," Chavez replied, adding he hoped to visit Tripoli soon.

    Previous winners of the prize, which has been awarded each year since 1989, include Cuban President Fidel Castro and South Africa's President Nelson Mandela.

    Most White people will always hate Chavez, because he is an indigenous native, whose very presence reminds Whites that they remain an alien minority in the land.

    White people must oppose Chavez, because he is trying to slightly reduce the effects of the continuing centuries old White minority domination of his land and people.

    Remember that interview with the White woman at the beauty parlor in Caracas?
    She explained to the curious reporter, while having her soft hands manicured by a Native woman, that 'Chavez, by trying to help the Natives, is destroying the country, because the filthy Natives are lazy good-for-nothings'.

    Chavez is what happens when you allow too many of these good-for-nothing Natives to survive and breed, and to survive and breed outside of barren reservations.
