What a crock! Is this the new "mockumentary" category first pioneered by Michael Moore?

Further solidifying my decision not to watch that mutual admiration society in action.

Is "lifetime achievement" one of them?

"mutual admiration society"

When I was younger this type of thing was called a circle jerk. Now it is the Academy Awards. Go figure.

I can't say I pay much attention to the pop music scene, but this is the first I've heard of this song.

Here it is. I just googled it on Youtube. Butt ugly, pretentious, .... you name it.

Ridiculous.

Idiot al gore might as well done a documentary on building sand castles. He'd get a nomination on anything from that bunch of lunatics.

An oscar for a documentary that only democrats went to see.

The Lefties in Hollywood (that would be nearly everybody) are just about ready to wet their collective pants, waiting, waiting, waiting to hand over one of those little statuettes to Al Gore on Oscar night. And he'll be there. In all his stiffness, waiting to boogy with the Lefties. This is a slam dunk for Algore. He can't wait.

He'll certainly win. Too bad they don't put it in a new "propaganda category where he could enjoy links to some of the masters of the craft like Leni Riefenstahl.

This will be like meth to AlGores' already inflated ego; bet he decides to run in '08 after all.

for . . . best original song.

WHY IT'S GETTING WARM
Tune: "Riders on the Storm"

Why it's getting warm
Why it's getting warm
Is it hotter than the norm
Or just turning back to form
Gore would sound the warning horn
And make cars that run on corn
Why it's getting warm

There's an inconsistent flaw
In his scientific law
There's not one single cause
For why an iceberg thaws
The conclusion that he draws
Is giving us guffaws
An inconsistent flaw

Gore, you incoherent goof
Gore, you incoherent goof
It doesn't take a sleuth
To see your lack of proof
Here's an inconvenient truth
It's still freezing in Duluth
You incoherent goof

Why it's getting warm
Why it's getting warm
Is it hotter than the norm
Or just turning back to form
Gore would sound the warning horn
And make cars that run on corn
Why it's getting warm

Why it's getting warm
Why it's getting warm . . .

I believe it was Jack Nickelson who said the only thing about the Oscars, was that the hookers were paid for.

They could call it the "Goebbels Award."
