Worth Reading Irena Sendler

What would you say about a woman who smuggled thousands of Jewish children out of the Warsaw ghetto, preserving their lives, and at great cost to herself? Would you call her a hero? Sounds reasonable to me.
Then what do you think should be an appropriate honor for such a person? Well, the Nobel Prize sounds like it might fit.
By the way, this is not a theoretical question. There really is, or rather was, such a person. Her name was Irena Sendler, and she just passed on.
Back to the question: is she a worthy nominee for the Nobel Prize?
seems reasonable to me.
But she lost out.
She lost out to a smarmy, deceitful, lying sack of steaming manure by the name of Albert Gore. Yep, you know him. He got a Nobel for running a deceitful slide show.
Now do you understand why the world is in trouble? Actual worth is less honored than alarmist lies.
Go here. Read the story.
