Gorbachev won the Nobel Peace Prize all by hisself.

Who did you think he shared it with?

Reagan?  That is fucking hilarious.

let me buy you a bottle of champagne for this one alone

actually yeah, I was under that misimpression

I probably mixed up both of them being nominated with them sharing it when I was much younger

man, I'm so happy to hear this, because it always annoyed the hell out of me that they would give that cowboy the prize

thanks you, thank you Rich

Just trying to correct the historical record.

The Republicans have done an incredible job creating the fiction that Reagan was well-liked and respected.

He wasn't.

The Nobel Committee wouldn't have given him the time of day.
