Heads a poppin'

That happy sound you hear is the explosion of conservative heads as they check out the news and discover that Paul Krugman just won the Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel, better known as the Nobel Prize for Economics. If any of them were in doubt that the Nobel prizes were a liberal, old Europe, anti-American conspiracy, this should lay those doubts to rest. I expect them to be calling for airstrikes on Stockholm any minute now.
