Al Gore and the IPCC have won the Nobel Peace Prize.
What fool will be given the next award....Al Sharpton?
Seems the committee doesn't take honesty into account..........
Didn’t Assafat win for, like, Arab gay rights or something?
ROTFLMAO
NOW Al will start really considering another run for the WH. Hillary has a new headache this morning.
Our enemies are doing a bang up job of at infiltrating and riping up all organizations and traditional role models in an attempt to create a new dependence.
Looks to me about 1990 things started to go downhill when it comes to Nobel Peace Prizes (some were good candidates, many weren’t.)
2007: Former Vice President Al Gore and the U.N.’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, for efforts to educate about the effects of man-made climate change.

> Al Gore & Yasser Arafat: winners of the Nobel Peace Prize. And all three utterly worthless.
Ya fergot Dhimmi Carter. He got hisself one too.
It could have been the clincher for the Award.
FOX News- Gore III was allegedly driving a blue Toyota Prius at speeds over 100 mph when he was pulled over around 2:15 a.m. on the San Diego freeway south of Los Angeles. Smelling marijuana, police searched the car and found less than one ounce of marijuana and prescription drugs Xanax, Valium, Vicodin and Adderall, Orange County Sheriff's Department spokesman Jim Armormino said. The last pharmaceutical is a treatment for attention deficit disorder.
"He does not have a prescription for any of those drugs," Amormino said.
Wouldn’t we like to know who is on this Nobel committee.
Seems that the Peace Prize has deteriorated to become the Nobel Committee's message to the United States: "Up yours, Uncle Sam!"
Ala Sam Goldwyn, if they have a message for us, they shoulda used Western Union.
Let’s see, a terrorist, a communist, a traitor, a hot dog salesman, and Algore. Sounds about right.
Awarding a crappy, distorted powerpoint presentation a “peace” prize = new low for Nobel.
“Al Gore & Yasser Arafat: winners of the Nobel Peace Prize. And all three utterly worthless.”
That sums it up completely!
Wait a minute - they’re worse than worthless! The first and third strew misinformation (lies) wherever they go. The second one was a terrorist.
This is how the leftists gain credibility and influence. They use their old boy network to nominate each other for prestigious awards and vote for each other. Great men like Reagan and Pope JP II, who liberated millions of people and actually contributed to peace never win, but incompetents, lunatics and terrorists like Jimma Carter, Al Gore and Yasser Arafat do.
After 2004 and “Did you know I served in Viet Nam?”, we then gotta hear “Did you know I won the Nobel Peace Prize”?
Between flying his entourage there on a private jet, and buying carbon indulgences to cover the environmental impact, methinks Al just blew his share of the winnings.
