What did Teddy Roosevelt win the Nobel Prize for?

And who would describe him as a "liberal"? He seems to me to have been a very effective man and politician, but I should think that Republicans would like him, because he had all the "tough guy" and military credentials, after all. (?) So, John Hardly, does Teddy Roosevelt merit being listed among all these leftist-leaning liberals you are so concerned about? ;-) And what about the various Israeli leaders who've won it? And what about dear old Henry Kissinger? (He and Le Duc Tho won the Nobel mutually in '73 for having reached an agreement in Paris to officially end the American-North Vietnamese conflict in Vietnam). Kissinger is one of the biggest and most reliable hatchetmen that the neo-conservative movement has ever had in its lineup of heavy hitters. I believe they consider him quite indispensible. If there is any really dark and high level stuff going on, Mr Kissinger always has his finger on the pulse of it.
