I wonder, had it gone the other way in 2000- Would GWBush have won an Oscar and the Nobel Peace prize? I doubt anyone would be talking about him at all.
Wouldn't that be a good thing..

You don't really believe all that bull do you?:confused:

No, I was joking. I think there has aways been a crowd that extorts money because the world is ending. It used to be religious in nature "end times" but now it is secular and draws many paralells to a religion. Rev. Al sounds good.

Okay, I understand now. I agree with you on the "scare tactics".

Ironically enough the Nobel family has been called "The Russian Rockefellers" because they made a fortune in the Baku oil fields in Azerbaijan. In fact, part of the initial seed money to set up the prizes came from Alfred Nobel's shares in the oil wells owned by his brothers.

All of which doesn't really mean anything, I just think it's interesting.

well deserved! An Oscar, an Emmy and now the Nobel.

Of course, he also won the presidency in November 2000, but some crazed ideologue (who now has the lowest approval rating of any president ever) and a bunch of shithead insincere hypocritical Bible-thumpers lead by the very evil Dick Cheney stole it.


Thank those bible thumpers God... that Gore didnt win.... !!!! my God i would have jumped the border into Mexico...

Press release:

The Nobel Peace Prize for 2007
The Norwegian Nobel Committee has decided that the Nobel Peace Prize for 2007 is to be shared, in two equal parts, between the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and Albert Arnold (Al) Gore Jr. for their efforts to build up and disseminate greater knowledge about man-made climate change, and to lay the foundations for the measures that are needed to counteract such change.
Indications of changes in the earth's future climate must be treated with the utmost seriousness, and with the precautionary principle uppermost in our minds. Extensive climate changes may alter and threaten the living conditions of much of mankind. They may induce large-scale migration and lead to greater competition for the earth's resources. Such changes will place particularly heavy burdens on the world's most vulnerable countries. There may be increased danger of violent conflicts and wars, within and between states.
Through the scientific reports it has issued over the past two decades, the IPCC has created an ever-broader informed consensus about the connection between human activities and global warming. Thousands of scientists and officials from over one hundred countries have collaborated to achieve greater certainty as to the scale of the warming. Whereas in the 1980s global warming seemed to be merely an interesting hypothesis, the 1990s produced firmer evidence in its support. In the last few years, the connections have become even clearer and the consequences still more apparent.
Al Gore has for a long time been one of the world's leading environmentalist politicians. He became aware at an early stage of the climatic challenges the world is facing. His strong commitment, reflected in political activity, lectures, films and books, has strengthened the struggle against climate change. He is probably the single individual who has done most to create greater worldwide understanding of the measures that need to be adopted.
By awarding the Nobel Peace Prize for 2007 to the IPCC and Al Gore, the Norwegian Nobel Committee is seeking to contribute to a sharper focus on the processes and decisions that appear to be necessary to protect the world’s future climate, and thereby to reduce the threat to the security of mankind. Action is necessary now, before climate change moves beyond man’s control.
Oslo, 12 October 2007
Stop asking why Al Gore got it. They explained it. If you thought the Peace Prize was something other than what it is, I only point out that Arafat got one.

I don't know whether Gore really did that much to truly earn it, but the money he gets will probably go into programs to help save the planet and it draws attention to this dire issue. So whether you agree or not with the award, it at least gets the word out about saving Mother Earth and that is ALWAYS a good thing in my book.

Ah, you just pointed out how ignorant you are, and that you should stop listening to Rush Coulter and Ann Limbaugh and Pope Bill O'reilly III.

You do realize that they are lying when they claim that he claimed that, right?

really he didn't create the internet and didn't claim he did that no shit. I would have never known that a man who has won an oscar, emmy and now the nobel prize didnt claim to have created the most revolutionary concept/invention in a thousand years... oh wait he only helped recommend it that th us government invest in its developement once it "had" been created. shit I must have forgotten my history in place of humor and an intended joke. Of-fucking course he didn't create it I work in new media as a profession and take pride in what I do why would I not try and better inform my self on its history. The man has done for America then America even gives him credit for. if your not careful he's going just give up and move north and run for prime minister in canada. At least here when you win an election someone else doesnt say oh but I called dibs on that job first.

Mr. Nobel must be turning over in his grave.

What the hell does "Global Warming" have to do with peace?

Global Warming has a lot to do with peace and national security.

People win the peace prize when they work on worldwide suffering and hardship. Its not just about preventing wars.

That's right! And furthermore, somehow those yuppies have managed to turn scientists from all around the world, from all kinds of political and economic persuasions into yuppie puppets too.

Somehow Al Gore has convinced the entire scientific world to go to work every day and protect a lie.

Or is it the super powerful windpower lobby that is doing this? The oil companies don't have a chance going up against them.
