Of course he would be. As minister to "The Troika", in the mid 70s, Saramago was a shameless lickspittle of International Socialism. He searched the ranks of journalists and writers for reactionaries, wreckers, shirkers, kulaks, the whole kit and caboodle. Many were simply fired, quite a few fled the country, some were imprisoned as "enemies of the Revolution". He was proud of the invitation for the Soviets to set up base in the country, sported Che-ware, puffed on "Habana Cigaros", and hailed the fall of Phnomh Penh, and the rise of Pol Pot, he of the the Sorbonne education and Euronuances, as a great triumph of the Socialist future. [in that, he was correct. In efficiency of massmurder Pol Pot proved master of them all].
Later, of course, he was to be on the edge of the wedge among eurointellectuals of the formation of the alliance between The Red and The Green [IM].
The perfect Portuguese Planet Pepeteer.
Hot for Obama's chourico? Pining for Baracky's barracuda? So, what does he know about Hussein which the NYT, or Le Pew, pretends not to know?
Thus the Nobel, I guess.
