It's sad that I had to look and was surprised it was by a Republican. I don't know anything about his politics but it's a small glimmer that not all Republican politicians have lost their manners and gone off the deep end.

Pawlenty kind of goes back and forth. My mom sometimes likes him and other times I think she wants to take him out back and spank him. Sometimes he sounds rational and other times ya gotta wonder what was in his Kool-Aid.

The discussion I've been watching is that the Nobel prize is given for effort, not always for accomplishment. It seems this applies to diplomacy/ non science fields.

I'm not sure what I think about it. Not sure that Mr. O deserves the Nobel prize; sure he talks a great line, and he's working for peace and diplomacy, but I'm not sure it's Nobel material. And being nominated within two weeks? Not sure about that.
