STOCKHOLM -- The Royal Swedish Academy of Falsity announced today that William Kristol, over-employed propagandist for neoconservatism, is the 2008 winner of The William James "Bill" O'Reilly, Jr. Prize in Groundless Bloviation in Memory of Alfred Nobel.
The academy cited Kristol's "uncanny ability to be utterly and completely wrong about everything, always" while managing "to somehow be thought of as knowledgeable."
This is not the first international achievement for Kristol. He and his father Irving, along with Norman and John Podhoretz, were cited in 2004 by the British Medical Journal as proof that imbecility does not skip a generation.
