Yeah, the Fox comments I've been seeing are as follows:

-The nobel proze is a joke
-A bunch of socialists just honored one of their own
-Lots and lots of references to Jimmy Carter and Yassir Arafat
-They gave it to him because they're all terrorist appeasers

Well, they are right, it is a joke.  Always has been.  Doesn't "killing 750,000 Timorese is fine by me" Kissinger have one?

Hell, the guy who came up with the idea to give the prize in the first place got the money from a personal fortune amassed by creating deadly explosives.

Well, to be fair, he did it out of guilt, when he realized his mining tool would kill millions of people.

At least that's the story, and I'd prefer to think it's true.

Looks like the Democrats are going to play that game too:

http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2009/10/09/dnc-says-republican-critics-aligning-with-terrorists/

QuoteA Democratic National Committee spokesman said Friday the GOP has "thrown in its lot with the terrorists" in criticizing the president's Nobel Peace Prize award.

"The Republican Party has thrown in its lot with the terrorists – the Taliban and Hamas this morning – in criticizing the President for receiving the Nobel Peace prize," DNC Communications Director Brad Woodhouse said in a statement.
Gah. While I appreciate a game well played, I just wish the monkeys would stop playing games and actually do some work. I've been told I should welcome political inaction over the danger of change, but it reached the "it surely can't get any worse than this" mark a long time ago.

For a second there, I thought you meant Kissinger, and my brain started to hurt.

Yes, I heard that story too.  I hope it's true.  But still, in a modern context, it stinks of exactly the sort of PR move a company involved in the arms trade would do, to try and make their activities seem more benevolent.

Worry not.  They'll pull a Dick Durbin by Monday.  Apologize, fetch their coffee, that sort of thing.

I usually enjoy playing Yoko Ono albums at the same volume that the offending radio is playing.

When confronted, I say that what he's listening to is just as unpleasant as what I'm listening to, so maybe he should TURN THE SHIT OFF.

There is no further issue.

Except that I must now buy him a new radio.

I love a job where I can smash offensive shit.

No, they're giving out prizes for being presidents that aren't Bush.  I would have thought the implied insult to Wee King Georgie would have been obvious.
