HOLD THE PRESSES! IT AIN'T OVER TILL IT'S OVER!!!

This just in.....

Quote:
(2007-10-12) — Although former Vice President Al Gore won the Nobel Peace Prize this week for his work as a global-warming performance artist, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled early today that President George Bush would receive the gold medal, the diploma and the $750,000.

Still graced with two eyes and ten fingers (due in no small part to luck!).

Just when you think a problem is solved, an uglier result replaces it.

Aw yeah, it's funny when the loser is a bully who gets the prize anyway, because the winner behaved honestly.

That didn't used to be the American way.

Okay, now we're going in a direction I DO want to go. But it's been so long, I gotta let it go, or I'll die from aggravation.

The jokes are good, but the reality is pretty sad, especially given the fact that Gore's own carbon footprint is bigger than Godzilla's...

"Al Gore has won the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize. This choice, more than any other Nobel Committee selection, marks the end of a 105-year era. In direct contradiction of Alfred Nobel's last will and testament, the selection of Gore essentially means the Peace Prize can no longer be said to be an award for improving the condition of humankind. Looking at Gore's writing, it's far from clear that Gore even believes that humanity is his most important priority..."

"Gore... does not even profess improving the human condition as his fundamental goal. Rather, his stated desire is to stop human activity that he sees as ruining what he calls the "ecosystem." Awarding the prize to Gore in 2007 is the equivalent of honoring the Luddites who tried to stop the beneficial technologies of Alfred Nobels's day."
