I know the pundits are all saying this means people will have to take him seriously and go along with the hopey peace thing. OK, only the sap pundits are saying that, but still …

Mickey Kaus has a point. Maybe he should turn it down. Before he’s stuck with it, and its stuck all over him.

He's got to turn it down. He just has to.

"But the Norwegian Nobel Committee theoretically should be aware that peace and freedom do not grow on trees.". Yeah..right on. Those damn Swedes need to get it into their socialist heads that peace is won by war. Um, that's right isn't it? Spill blood to gain peace? It worked for Bush and his dad - didn't it?

You got it half-right, JackieDel. The surrendercrats in Norway want the Appeaser-in-Chief to deny General McChrystal's request for the 40,000 in Afghanistan.

The Europeans love His Lofty Emptyness and His apology tours and they're having a hearty laugh at the "prize" he so "humbly" accepted. They just marked him
as a useful idiot.

He's got to turn it down. He just has to.
Even if he was willing to turn it down, Michelle wouldn't let him.
