I didn't know anything about Thorbjørn Jagland except that he was previously a Norwegian prime Minister.

But I note in the introduction,
In 2010 a group of forty prominent historians ranked Jagland as the weakest Norwegian prime minister since the end of the Second World War;.


And as can be seen that it was under his chairmanship of the Norwegian Nobel Committeethat Obama received the peace prize, an it was questioned at the time and people demanded he resign.

So it looks like all he is doing is trying to correct his ineptitude.

Your source "Norm de Pleume" is:

Tony Hendra, a.k.a. Lakshmi Gurtz, Windsor McCastle, Norm de Pleume, Sarah Bellum, Rusty Trawler, Rich Miser and Sarah Jessica Parker-Pope

Tony Hendra was described by The Independent of London as "one of the most brilliant comics of the post-war period," but only after a long, bibulous lunch. He was an editor of the National Lampoon, editor-in-chief of Spy Magazine, co-created Spitting Image and starred in This Is Spinal Tap.

It's unclear whether this is more reliable than anything else you read.
I think you'll find it's a bit more complicated than that ...

Bobby remember the only other thing he reads and quotes is the Bible. ;)

<edit> I shouldn't say the Bible, I should say his Bible.

You think, maybe, perhaps, you slackers can make it back on topic?

Is the topic outrageous lies told as jokes?
