Bit late, but only just noticed this...
Hyro's making a reasonable inference based on the Nobel commitee's actions in the last few years.
A reasonable inference? Possibly. I guess that would depend upon the strict definition of the technical term "bleeding-heart liberal" - perhaps you have one?
Just because you don't agree with him doesn't make him a twat.
I think I made it clear in my post that I didn't wholly not agree with him. I also think I made it clear that I was refering to the language he used, by clever use of the word "language".
I think I also made clear that I was not accusing him of being a twat - rather, I simply pointed out that his use of such language would certainly attract such a condemnation from many quarters. Obviously not yours, and I did think of putting in a specific exclusion for you at the time.
But hey, thanks for playing
