Former Vice President and Nobel Peace Prize winner Al Gore recalled his own Harvard commencement while addressing University of Tennessee graduates Friday.
"I remember the weather and the feelings of excitement and relief and the parties," Gore said. "I have absolutely no idea who gave the speech at my commencement. None whatsoever."
Gore will be remembered, however, for a 20-minute speech laced with both humor and serious concerns while receiving only the third honorary doctorate given by UT Knoxville.

Typical politician: “It’s all about me.”
If the degree was for being a party hack, a zombie sheep, a Kool Aid drinker, a moron, an idiot and a snake oil salesman, then he deserves it.
LOL!


For years I have known that Al Gore is a mentally unstable man.
I will never forget the account I read of another Senator who reported on Al Gore's strange and bizarre behavior in the Senate. Even as a freshman Senator, he had this incredible need to be admired by his colleagues as an academic "genius", even though he is not very bright.
Gore would sit at a desk in the hallway, where every lobbyist, staffer, reporter, and Senator walking by could see him. Then, Gore would take out a college Physics book and pretend to be engrossed it in, all the while peering up every few seconds to see who around him was noticing.
THAT is the behavior of someone who is deeply disturbed. He is living his fantasy now, getting Academy Awards, Grammy Awards, Nobel Peace Prizes, and Honorary Degrees.
And it is all a big

JOKE!
The University dishonors itself with this action.
he needs professional help.
Did they give it to him, or did he buy it?
Makes me want to renounce my degree from UT.
The only degree he should receive is a “BS” in GoreBull Warmingology.
I hope it was an honorary degree for theatrical arts.
What a pathetic joke. What a fool. What a wealthy, duplicitous insult to humanity.
Actually, he's a very UNconvincing liar. It's just that the left-wing media and left-wing "scientific community" gives him a 100% pass on everything he says, because, after all, it is for the "common good" (ends justify the means) in their view.
Zero is next? What has happened to UT? Appparently the libtards have completely taken over the place.
They say the way you wind uo looking is reflective on how your life was...
The Goreacle IS now ManBearPig.
“The University dishonors itself with this action.”
Having attended UT, this makes me sick.
I guess it is a token prize for his having lost Tennessee when he ran for POTUS.
I guess all of academia is now controlled by the Marxist
in every state.
He flunked out of law school and divinity school, I believe.
