>>>Gunnar Berge, chairman of the Nobel committee, said giving the award to Carter "should be interpreted as a criticism of the line that the current administration has taken. . . . It's a kick in the leg to all that follow the same line as the United States."<<<<<

Ugly article. We are once again in the land in which criticism of US policy is dubbed anti-American and in which some of the previous recipients of the Nobel prize are dubbed "savages,"

When will journals like the Weekly Standard grow up? No grinnie.

I heard about this on the radio news. What a thing for the chairman of the Nobel Commitee to say. It disparages somewhat the honor to Carter - you have to wonder did they really want to honor Clinton or just give " a kick in the leg" to Bush?
