That’s right. The Landmark Legal Foundation, “the premiere public interest law firm fighting for conservative principles in America,” has nominated the rotund one (who serves as an unpaid member of Landmark’s Board of Advisors) for the Nobel Peace Prize. Here’s LLF’s nominating letter. The italics have been added to highlight the “reasons” Limbaugh was nominated:

3. No one can know if they are nominated????
Al Gore knows he's been nominated.

I think that LimpBalls nomination is legit.....in a technical sense. He'd be a better nominee for the Idiot Fat-Ass Liar Prize

4. Actually..
That may not be true, as I'm relatively sure that I've nominated myself for a Nobel prize.

2. Wow number one at fighting for conservative principles
Like: hate, discrimination, evil, lies, corporate crime, money laundering, perjury, a strong desire to not serve one's country in any capacity, divorce, forced prostitution, forced abortions, drug and alcohol abuse, stealing elections, pretending to be manly, disdain for the constitution, cherry picking in the bible, hitting on underage congressional pages, a strong need for rehab for any reason. Yeah, I'd be real fucking proud pushing those principles on the populace.

5. Gore was nominated once, Gov. Richardson 4 times
and it wasn't for bullshit reasons like this silly Limbaugh nomination.
