Bedfellows

The surprise news that Barack Obama has won the Nobel Peace Prize resulted in at least one amusing juxtaposition.

Among the critics of the prize are both Obama's conservative critics ("[H]e's the first to win it without having accomplished anything" from National Review Online) and... the Taliban ("He has done nothing for peace in Afghanistan").

That's only amusing until you realize how much of the conservative movement in the United States would welcome theocracy.
