Shimon Peres, president of Israel, on the news that Barack Obama has won
the Nobel Peace Prize:

"Very few leaders if at all were able to change the mood of the entire
world in such a short while with such a profound impact. You provided
the entire humanity with fresh hope, with intellectual determination,
and a feeling that there is a lord in heaven and believers on earth".

Huh? You buying into this religious stuff?
What's next, the Taliban praising the award?
Don't get me wrong. I think Obama will do fine, and has leavened
judgement.
But the only reason for him winning the Peace prize was to **** off
Tom and the Reps.
I'm just trying to figure out how MSNBC fixed the vote.
The whole thing is pretty ****ing stupid from any objective viewpoint.
Besides, the Reps need to regain their sanity.
This only drives them further over the cliff.

Don't confuse my desire for separation of church and state with a belief
that I am an atheist.

Fair enough re the atheism, but the quote was a bit incongruous.
After all, Israel is a religious state.
You probably could have found a salutary quote from Rachel Maddow or
Mike Moore. Be more in keeping with the ****-em-off modality too.
No sense using a source that gives pause to the ongoing explosion.

I have no objection to republicans going over a cliff.

Just the wackos. But unfortunately, that's most nowadays.
