Re: Al Gore wins Nobel Peace Prize
Oct 13th, 2007I am doing penance for telling someone else off on another forum for the same thing....you'd think I'd blown up the Parliament Buildings in Ottawa...hee

Oh boy isn't history wonderful???
That pesky Nobel - for whom the award clangs....
I'm still wrestling the knowledge that Hitler also received the award.
Oh and the dude who invented dynamite - whatta guy - gotta look up his name.. (joke eh)
And then there is Mahatma Gandhi who was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize five times between 1937 and 1948 but never won it.
Kinda makes me sit back and ponder the use of it.

This just shows the descent of the Nobel Prize. First of all this has nothing to do with Peace. It's part of a political agenda, tied in with a Global Trading regime that is at the core of Kyoto, in the guise of fear mongering about a non existent danger. Global Warming in a fraud, it has NO scientific credibility and is an assault on the scientific method and common empirical sense. Gore, the Arch FOOL and clown prince, of both Free Trade and Radical Pagan Environmentalism.. is the front man for something that portends the collapse of Western Economies and scientific civilization. The Nobel is now centred on its political prizes.. that of economics (sponsored by a bank, not the original endowment).. and 'peace'.. in the hands of New Age deconstructivists. Its scientific prizes have become increasingly trivial, awarded to largely inconsequential refinements rather than cutting edge research (for reconstituted mice and the like.. ). Just know what you're dealing with now, it is a progaganda tool for a new world order that is both unscientific and predatory.

This was your original post Curio.
I started the topic because I thought it was mildly newsworthy. I should have known that someone would pi$$ on it.
Lots of good people have won the Nobel Peace Prize:
Albert Schweitzer, Lester B. Pearson, Martin Luther King, Mother Terese, Even Jimmy Carter, and Al Gore. I can only assume that you think none of them were worthy.

I am lol'ing on the floor at some of the canucks here who are pretending to know that the Goreacle is somehow good for America, or at least better than what we have.
Mr. Glowbull warming's house would eat up most of Canada's resources during a hard winter, but I suppose thats fine with some of you. Way to be be green Mr. Inconviency..
Moral equivalance. And you people. = Priceless.

Curio you did your best to cheapen the topic. I've said enough about it.
PS...FYI..The UN has nothing to do with the Nobel prize.

Gore and UN panel win Nobel prize
Climate change campaigner Al Gore and the UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change have been jointly awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.

Go through the list before Gore and tell me who was unworthy of this prize and why.

For goodness sakes.....I know you hate Gore. That shows in everything you type about him.
Look at your first post and tell me you were not trying to belittle or put down the whole topic.
Do your worst Curio. I don't care.

Juan please calm down...
... and when you do please explain why this whole topic is based upon something I wrote half in jest - and have been taking it from you throughout. There is more than Gore and GW and the Nobel award.... I have just come to realize Juan how much you really dislike me and what I stand for.
I represent something you have decided upon years ago and yet you continue year after year to fault me on so many things it has become expected by me that no matter what I do, Juan will not be pleased with whatever I write or feel or believe.
I refuse to give you that power Juan....it won't work anymore with me.
What you thrive upon is......how people learn to hate their neighbors... why people kill each other over the smallest of issues...and how wars start. My life is spent in trying to eradicate this for as many people who will give me the opportunity and share their lives with me.... and I am successful at what I do.
I have done my best and you will never know it.

You equated a man who is doing his best to save us from the most pressing crisis of our time with a man who caused the greatest suffering in history Curiosity.
I can fully understand why Juan would be pissed at your dishonesty.
It's the irrationality that you represent that's the problem here.

To bad that Bush had no consensous from the UN and it's inspectors while Gore has scientific consensous form the climate community.
Big difference between the two.

Much of this type of drama can be propogated (but certainly maintained) by the media. Whether you believe them left, center or right in their owner's ideology. It's irrelevant. And you better believe that owner's want their ideas heard, whether it be print or other media.
Quote has been trimmed, See full post:
The press picked up and ran with the Bush 'Iraq War' ball and never asked hard questions to challenge what the hell was really going on. No show us the proof. No journalism. Just bandwagoneering. USA #1. Nuke 'em. Because a few hawks said it was so? Indeed. Follow along and cheer like you're at a wrasslin' match. The Canadian press was almost as bad.
The same applies to Gore here. The concept of the scientists he speaks for is somewhat valid but the media has portayed this millionaire lawyer as a saint, the oracle. He that speaketh for mankind.
He is really the Emperor sans clothes and no one questions the blind followings. Soon they'll drink the kool aid too.
Free and independant thought is sorely lacking today. Media promote popular causes and their darling choices at the polls. The public in general is ignorant of what lay beneath and behind. It's sad that the gullability of society is as such. That something is repeated over and over in the media does not make something true, nor right.

You equated a man who is doing his best to save us from the most pressing crisis of our time with a man who caused the greatest suffering in history Curiosity.
