I've heard that Joseph Pulitzer is the old lefty who came up with the phrase "comfort the afflicted and afflict the comfortable." So it makes sense that his prizes always go to lefties.

Absolutely no surprises, btw. NY Slimes wins a bunch of awards.

“Ruined” by Lynn Nottage is the 2nd straight drama to win that was first performed at the Goodman Theater in Chicago. Hooray for my hometown!

Biography - American Lion: Andrew Jackson in the White House by Jon Meacham (Random House)

I've heard this is good but haven't read it yet.

Lefty’s slapping Lefty’s on the back (another metaphor is more appropriate but not ‘family oriented’) - as inconsequential as the Oscars, Emmy’s, et. al. and the pure trash and lies they perpetrate.

Ick. David Barstow (NYT) wins for ingestigative reporting. His citation:

Awarded to David Barstow of The New York Times for his tenacious reporting that revealed how some retired generals, working as radio and television analysts, had been co-opted by the Pentagon to make its case for the war in Iraq, and how many of them also had undisclosed ties to companies that benefited from policies they defended.

Absolutely no surprises, btw.

Apparently, some guy scribbled "Bush Sucks" on a bathroom wall in Toledo. I am suprised that he was only awarded an Honorable Mention. So, a small suprise.

Oh barf. Here's the "Commentary" winner's citation:

Awarded to Eugene Robinson of The Washington Post for his eloquent columns on the 2008 presidential campaign that focus on the election of the first African-American president, showcasing graceful writing and grasp of the larger historic picture.

Obama may not have ancestors who were slaves in America or share the traditional African-American experience, but I guess being in favor of abortion and homosexuality gives him an "in." I guess that makes Robert Mugabe an "Uncle Tom."

And for "Feature Photography":

Awarded to Damon Winter of The New York Times for his memorable array of pictures deftly capturing multiple facets of Barack Obama’s presidential campaign.

The last deserving Pulitzer for Literature was Michael Shaara for “Killer Angels” and that was more than 30 years ago.
