Al Gore's Noble Prize

A Lady Named Irena - a true story

There recently was a death of a 98 year old lady named Irena.
During WWII, Irena, got permission to work in the Warsaw Ghetto.
She had an ulterior motive...

She KNEW what the Nazi's plans were for the Jews, (being German).
Irena smuggled infants out in the bottom of her tool box she carried, and she carried in the back of her truck a Burlap sack, (for larger kids).
She also had a dog in the back, that she trained to bark when the Nazi soldiers let her in, and out of the ghetto.

The soldiers of course wanted nothing to do with the dog, and the barking covered the kids/infants noises.

During her time and course of doing this, she managed to smuggle out and save 2500 kids/infants.

She was caught, and the Nazi's broke both her legs, and arms, and beat her severely.
Irena kept a record of the names of all the kids she smuggled out, and kept them in a glass jar, buried under a tree in her back yard.

After the war, she tried to locate any parents that may have survived it, and reunited the family.
Most of course had been gassed.

Those kids she helped got placed into foster family homes, or adopted.
Last year Irena was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize....
She LOST.

. . . . . . . Al Gore won, for doing a slide show on Global Warming.

Owner's Comments: This was emailed to me from a very good friend. Does this seem right to you? Al Gore got the Noble Prize and this lady got ignored! Tell me the Noble prize is not more about poking a stick in the eye of the American President than it is about recognizing people who actually did something to help other folks.

Do You Trust Barak Obama to pick your Doctor? If not vote John McCain for President!
