Al Gore really did deserve this. A hell of a service to humanity he has done, at great personal cost. He really has sacrificed his own personal peace and enjoyment of life. Traded his own peace and quiet to help us with this, so that he can be heckled by people like DaddyHalBucks. Hell of a sacrifice to make.

His environmental work.

He's been working to educate the populace in regards to environmental issues since he was in college.

His nomination did kinda represent a shift in the traditional characteristics of what defines a Peace Prize recipient - usually it's been held for statesmen and individuals who worked in Human Rights... but I guess there's something to be said for bringing the world together in the link between peace and the state of our environment.

I mean, if we destroy the climatic balance in which we evolved and our civilizations and societies emerged, I reckon there's not much chance of peace, eh? Less area for a growing population to live on = more competition for resources = an inflated chance of war.

From a perspective, it's the promotion of peace on a grand scale. And, those that are in a place to make such decisions wanted to reward him for those efforts.

Makes sense to me.

You may be thinking of a statement that he made that was interpreted as him claiming to have "invented the internet" in 1999

Was poor wording. I heard him say the exact same speech-point 3 years earlier as he addressed a graduating class in Cambridge.

"During my service in the United States Congress, I took the initiative in creating the Internet"... even then, there was a murmur in the crowd and people saying "did he just say what I thought he just said?"

But still, I think it was made out to be more than it was.

Here's what Snopes has to say about it:

That whole creating the Internet thing was blown out of proportion by Bush to make Gore look like a fool during the election. Besides, everyone knows that god created the Internet, jeez.

He distanced himself from Slick Willy in 2000.

Had he not done so, he would probably be President today.

I don't see that his receiving the award gives him an incentive to enter the Presidential race in 2008 nor adds impetus for a campaign.

Why can't Americans be happy that another American was recognized for raising awareness of an issue that the honoree believes is important for the whole world?

Gore Deserves Nobel Prize for Propaganda, Warming Skeptics Say
By Randy Hall
CNSNews.com Staff Writer/Editor
October 12, 2007

(CNSNews.com) - Critics of Al Gore believe that the former vice president should not receive a Nobel Prize for his efforts regarding global warming - including his film "An Inconvenient Truth" - but should perhaps get an award for his efforts as a climate change propagandist.

"The real 'inconvenient truth' is that Gore seems to have intentionally omitted it from his movie," Steve Milloy, publisher of JunkScience.com, charged in a news release on Thursday. Instead, the film presented "false facts" and major inaccuracies that fit the Democrat's personal agenda, he said.

Milloy pointed to a ruling last week in a British court that "An Inconvenient Truth" contains at least nine material falsehoods and can be shown to students only if it is identified as containing "partisan political views" that promote only one side of the global warming argument.

"It is plainly, as witnessed by the fact that it received an Oscar this year for best documentary film, a powerful, dramatically presented and highly professionally produced film," Judge Michael Burton said in his ruling.

However, "it is now common ground that it is not simply a science film - although it is clear that it is based substantially on scientific research and opinion - but that it is a political film," the judge added.

Then on Thursday, the BBC aired a report claiming that Gore knew his "alarmist" movie presented "false facts," because he feared any uncertainty in his film would only fuel opponents of global warming regulation.

"If this is true," said Milloy, "then Al Gore should win the Nobel prize for propaganda."

"The BBC report and the judge's ruling came as no surprise," he said. "Our YouTube video 'debate', entitled "Al Gore Debates Global Warming," between Gore and expert climatologists spotlights the false assertion by Gore that carbon dioxide drives global temperature."

Timothy Ball, a retired climatologist who leads the National Resources Stewardship Project, told Cybercast News Service he agrees that "An Inconvenient Truth" is a "wonderful piece of propaganda, but that's all it is."

Calling the film's scientific errors "huge," Ball said that the movie "would fail as a grade 10 science project," because it depends on "visual imagery and gimmickry" to make its point.

Ball also said it's a "travesty" that Gore is being considered for such a prize since "you can spin the lies but you can't spin the truth. I hope that one day soon, we'll be able to have a calm and rational debate about climate change."

The fact that the former vice president has refused to debate skeptics of manmade global warming was also on the mind of Patrick Michaels, a senior fellow with the libertarian Cato Institute, who issued a statement that called Gore's candidacy for the Nobel Peace Price "a tribute to persistence."

"For 20 years, he has not changed his story: climate change is the most important issue confronting our planet, it should be the 'central organizing principle' for civilization, and it is caused by a conspiracy of a few greedy individuals," Michaels said. "He's like the proverbial nut that grew into a giant oak by standing his ground."

"We can only hope that he can parlay his prize into a run for the U.S. presidency, where he will be unable to hide from debate on his extreme and one-sided view of global warming," he added.

Michaels wasn't the only person wondering if winning a Nobel Prize might cause Gore - who was vice president during Bill Clinton's two terms in the White House and who narrowly lost the 2000 presidential race to Republican George W. Bush - to jump into the field of Democratic candidates for 2008.

A group called Draft Gore took out a full-page advertisement in Wednesday's New York Times calling on him to get into the race.

"You say you have fallen out of love with politics, and you have every reason to feel that way," the ad states. "But we know you have not fallen out of love with your country. And your country needs you now - as do your party and the planet you are fighting so hard to save."

"You have done a superhuman job of bringing world attention" to the issue of global warming, but "this effort needs to be raised to a higher level," the group said. "Only from the Oval Office can you wield the kind of influence needed to move countries, policies, and corporations to bring about meaningful change.

"Mr. Vice President, there are times for politicians and times for heroes," the ad continues. "America and the Earth need a hero right now - someone who will transcend politics as usual and bring real hope to our country and to the world.

"Please rise to this challenge, or you and millions of us will live forever wondering what might have been," the group concludes.

Even though the ad states that 136,000 people have signed the petition at draftgore.com, Gore spokeswoman Kalee Kreider said in a statement that the former vice president "truly appreciates the heartfelt sentiment behind the ad; however, he has no intention of running for president."

Milloy said he was focused on the claim that Gore knowingly included falsehoods in his film and was more interested in taking things off Gore's resume than adding to it.

"We call on the Norwegian Nobel Committee to award the prize to a deserving candidate, rather than someone who plays fast and loose with the facts to advance his personal agenda," he said. "Also, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences should revoke the Oscar 'An Inconvenient Truth' won for best documentary."

Neither the Nobel committee nor the AMPAS should "risk their brands on Al Gore's chicanery," Milloy added.

Yes, it does. I don't think that's really being debated.

Whether encouraged by man's interference, part of a natural cycle, or a combination of both, the Earth is in a state of warming. This is backed by decades of observational research. Nothing peer-reviewed to the contrary has come out in a few decades, I don't think.

The "debate" (used loosely) seems to be whether or not man is the cause of the warming... and, in this debate, it seems to be that 99% of peer-reviewed scientists are on one side of the fence (saying man's the cause of it), and 1% of peer reviewed scientists (who all, coincidentally, get paychecks from big oil) on the other side of the fence.

Then there's lots of gung-ho laymen who really have little clue as to anything arguing the points of the latest video they caught on youtube muddling the waters of clarity a tad.

Hopefully this recognition might wake a few of those laymen up.

I couldn't agree with that statement more... and hopefully, it'll be addressed in the future.

I don't think it's out of the question to argue that some of the items brought up as "facts" by Al Gore might not be as matter-of-fact as they were presented in his film, but - though that film and through a career of like-minded actions - he's done the job of raising general awareness of an issue that faces us all, and that of our children, and our children's children, and could severely impact our ability to be a peaceful species in the future.

I think it's for that reason that the Nobel Committee decided to award him the Medal.

I, as it seems the people quoted in that article do, look forward to the day that people stop insisting that we have no impact on our environment, but instead, raise the discussion to a higher level and discuss questions like: "what degree of negative impact do we have on our environment, and what can we do to help lessen what impact that we all agree we do have?"

Michaels wasn't the only person wondering if winning a Nobel Prize might cause Gore - who was vice president during Bill Clinton's two terms in the White House and who narrowly lost the 2000 presidential race to Republican George W. Bush - to jump into the field of Democratic candidates for 2008. A group called Draft Gore took out a full-page advertisement in Wednesday's New York Times calling on him to get into the race. "You say you have fallen out of love with politics, and you have every reason to feel that way," the ad states. "But we know you have not fallen out of love with your country. And your country needs you now - as do your party and the planet you are fighting so hard to save." "You have done a superhuman job of bringing world attention" to the issue of global warming, but "this effort needs to be raised to a higher level," the group said. "Only from the Oval Office can you wield the kind of influence needed to move countries, policies, and corporations to bring about meaningful change. "Mr. Vice President, there are times for politicians and times for heroes," the ad continues. "America and the Earth need a hero right now - someone who will transcend politics as usual and bring real hope to our country and to the world. "Please rise to this challenge, or you and millions of us will live forever wondering what might have been," the group concludes. Even though the ad states that 136,000 people have signed the petition at draftgore.com, Gore spokeswoman Kalee Kreider said in a statement that the former vice president "truly appreciates the heartfelt sentiment behind the ad; however, he has no intention of running for president." Milloy said he was focused on the claim that Gore knowingly included falsehoods in his film and was more interested in taking things off Gore's resume than adding to it. "We call on the Norwegian Nobel Committee to award the prize to a deserving candidate, rather than someone who plays fast and loose with the facts to advance his personal agenda," he said. "Also, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences should revoke the Oscar 'An Inconvenient Truth' won for best documentary." Neither the Nobel committee nor the AMPAS should "risk their brands on Al Gore's chicanery," Milloy added. Link __________________ ICQ: 37378183
