Peace is nuclear bombs and two million dead at Stalingrad and Kursk. Tell him to call back when he’s shown that kind of commitment to peace.” At his studio in Palm Beach, Florida, where he was eating everybody’s lunch, unofficial Republican spokesmodel Rush Limbaugh said, “The Nobel Committee has suicide-bombed itself. And they don’t even believe in Allah. Do they?”
