That would be awesome!! They wouldn't even have to pay tax on it.

My scan of the conservative blogosphere (blogosfear?) reveals a trend towards happiness on conservatives' part over the award based on the idea it forces one to consider what exactly he won it for, what precisely his peace achievements are. They feel this leads to a "wtf?" assessment from which Obama emerges damaged. There is consistency in the ridicule, though it fluxuates between ridiculing Obama, the Nobel Foundation, and/or both.

My scan of the liberal blogosphere reveals reactions all over the road, from pride over a deserving, well-thought out award to responses indiscernible from the conservative reactions.

The implication is clear: Philadelphia will win the Stanley Cup this season.

The Stanley Cup is a lordly "foreign" prize and an insidious attempt to indoctrinate us into the peace loving, national health care loving ways of our northern neighbors
