It's really to...OK, so 'war is peace'.<br /><br />It's really too bad there is no such thing as a Nobel prize for advancing Education. If there were, Obama could potentially win it, and during the acceptance speech, no doubt tell us that 'ignorance is strength'. <br /><br />As it happens, there's an international museum to slavery in Liverpool. I have in mind an inspirational speech he could give there.<br /><br />Bush got a trifecta; why not one for Obama?RLaingnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36646589.post-56700094674169589532009-12-12T15:34:28.890+01:002009-12-12T15:34:28.890+01:00Nobel Prize for Medicine: Joe Lieberman

He didn’t campaign for the thing, it was dropped in his lap, and I imagine he wishes he had never received it. I also understand why he couldn’t turn it down. <br /><br />His speech was also largely dictated by circumstances. I did think it was interesting that during the postgame analysis a number of liberals were applauding points made by Obama that could have come direct from a speech by Bush, which shows the state of lefty opposition these days. <br /><br />Good old Sonny Tufts.
