There's nothing funny about any private foundation doing whatever it wants. Me and SOTS have Nobel's back on that principle. It's funny because the wailing and gnashing of teeth is coming from quarters that normally support the right of private organizations to do as they please. It just shows that these people don't really have any values. Maybe Obama should come out strongly against Republicans committing suicide. Let's test the limits of the knee-jerk jerks. It could work. -Paul |

Ryan Cousineau wrote: Either one would be funny, but Kanye would be true. So you're saying Beyonce should have won the Nobel peace (piece ?) prize ? She has a longer record on the international stage than your beloved president. It would be a bold choice, I admit, but if the video for "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)" isn't something we can all agree on, I don't know what is. Commentary: http://www.colbycosh.com/mt/2008/11/...id_madame.html Just the video: http://link.brightcove.com/services/...bclid=14394738 4&bctid=1861298211 As for Kanye, I'd bet long odds on him having Obama's back on this one, but I'd enlist him for his self-established role as court jester to improbable awards. Of course, I'm still mad "How Green Was My Valley" won, and that was before my parents were born. -- Ryan Cousineau http://www.wiredcola.com/ "In other newsgroups, they killfile trolls."

It's funny because the wailing and gnashing of teeth is coming from quarters that normally support the right of private organizations to do as they please. It just shows that these people don't really have any values. Cold and timid soul: You are, I think, willfully Not Getting It. Any one of us right-wing kooks reserves the right to disagree with what private organizations do. I disagree with the IWW, DERA, The MTV awards committee, McDonald's wretched decision to change from a fried apple pie to a baked one, and team Astana, as well as the Nobel organization. What I do not do is assume their activities are philosophically illegitimate or worthy of sanction (except where illegal). I don't propose to make their actions illegal except where they substantially and illegitimately affect the rights of others or attempt a radical and untested remaking of society (which is a crude claim that I am a conservative, not a libertarian). The way I feel about governments is that, as a compelled stakeholders, I hope that the size of a government, the breadth and the complexity of its edicts, and its attendant demand for taxes, will be considered de facto negatives, and weighed most heavily against the purported benefits of whatever new law, regulatory entaglement, or demand for taxes (or deficits) comes along. Nominally conservative governments (and left-leaning ones too) fail these tests all the time, for reasons of expedience, pandering, philosophical differences, or just being dumb ****s. Nominally conservative pundits fail these tests too, but I don't claim that my definition of conservativism is the best one, or an exclusive one. It would be rather like defining liberalism using whatever the IWW says. Executive Summary: get back to me when the Nobel Committee is outlawed. -- Ryan Cousineau http://www.wiredcola.com/ "In other newsgroups, they killfile trolls."

I wasn't intending to single out Christianity by any means. I apologize to any and all other religions I may have slighted with my insensitive comments. Thank you. |
