If you're coaching your son's baseball team, and he's the best player and everybody knows it, do you give him the All-Around Award, the Spirit Award
and "Most Improved"?
This is why you're not on the Committee. The Nobel is what we give people to make them feel better about getting their ass kicked by Team America, and it ceases to work its magic if we give it to Reagan. Carter, not so much.
I'm sick to death of having to explain
realpolitik to you.
