Has he actually accomplished anything other than promote a movie? Everyone is already aware of the idea of climate change. It's an insult to the scientists to share it with him.

You can't make something an insult by saying it is. Perhaps those scientists will tell up whether they are proud to share with Gore or feel insulted. And apparently the people who awarded the prise didn't think so.

These people that still think the "jury is out" on global warming crack me up. They probably think evolution is psuedo science as well. I kind of hope they get taken out by global warming so the gene pool will improve .

Wishing death on those who disagree with you... How Islamic of you.

Thank you for proving my earlier point. It never ceases to amaze me how primitively animalistic humans still are, and what clever little ways they go about trying to feel proud of their lack. You realize that you're wishing death on people for holding a different belief that you, right? As though their differing belief had any true effect on the realities of science, or as though science were a democracy.
In words you can understand, you want God to punish the infidels. It's only your self-delusion that keeps you from seeing this. And it is this attitude that horrifies most of those people, not the issue of global warming itself. Go get born again or something, so you can stop undermining the cause for global warming, eh?

What the hell does this have to do with the topic at hand? Harvey, you are as insane as McOwen. You obviously missed the Moonbeam reference.

Harv is just a broken record. I swear nearly all of his posts are a copy-and-paste. That or he blames the Puppet-in-Chief for his hangnails....

I gotta admit, it's a tough call if the current field of bought-and-sold puppets doesn't improve. I think I'd probably write-in Bozo the Clown before I voted for McOwen though.

Hear Hear Vic. BTW, that is 2112, no?

Congrats :thumbsup:

Al Gore now has the one thing Bill Clinton wanted more than anything.


It is shame how the Nobel Peace Prize has lost its luster and turned into a political statement more than a real reward for those working towards peace.

Well, prizes involving political and other subjective stuff will always be a popularity contest.
That's why I think the peace price, as well as the literature price, should be done away with.

There's always 2008.

It happened a long time ago. Gore is just the culmination of it.

Its unpatriotic to diss the nobel piece prize.

As much of a fan as I am of Al Gore, Sunner's right. If Arafat can get one, it loses its prestige.

With that being said, Congrats to Al.

Arafat won it together with Rabin. And in that year they fully deserved it.
