Nice call, committee.

I love the sound of wingnut heads exploding in the morning.

Mr O wins the Nobel.

The crazies will carp, and the spittle will fleck. The Liberal Peace Prize, more like. They gave one to Yassir Arafat, too! And Woodrow Wilson! With all that League of Nations stuff, you just know he was trying to undermine American sovereignty! I can hear them now.

If Obama can deal with the likes of them with his customary poise and equanimity, he’s earned the Nobel Peace Prize in my book. Rebooting American foreign policy (somewhat) and revitalising the Middle East peace process is a bonus.
