malsperanzaProof that the Nobel Committee is a bunch of pinko commies, just like we always thought:
w00t!
I can't wait to hear what the National Review has to say. Ever since William F.(ucking) Buckley's racist rag thundered in outrage* against giving the Peace Prize to that "rabble-rousing demagogue" Martin Luther King, Jr., the NR has been especially rabid about the Nobel prizes. I think it's partly righteous wrath because the money comes from an honest conservative source. Shouldn't wealth from the invention of dynamite be spent on causing damage and ruination? Why doesn't Don Rumsfeld ever get considered? Or Nancy Reagan? Just the predictible, scandalous liberal bias of... uh ... the whole world.
*"For years now, the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King and his associates have been deliberately undermining the foundations of internal order in this country. With their rabble-rousing demagoguery, they have been cracking the “cake of custom” that holds us together. With their doctrine of “civil disobedience,” they have been teaching hundreds of thousands of Negroes — particularly the adolescents and the children — that it is perfectly alright to break the law and defy constituted authority if you are a Negro-with-a-grievance; in protest against injustice. And they have done more than talk. They have on occasion after occasion, in almost every part of the country, called out their mobs on the streets, promoted “school strikes,” sit-ins, lie-ins, in explicit violation of the law and in explicit defiance of the public authority. They have taught anarchy and chaos by word and deed — and, no doubt, with the best of intentions — and they have found apt pupils everywhere, with intentions not of the best. Sow the wind, and reap the whirlwind." ~Will Herberg, "'Civil Rights' and Violence: Who Are the Guilty Ones?", National Review, September 7, 1965
