Oh.. what a bore... its Gore, yet again

For a guy who was cheated of election victory in 2000 and was incognito for a while (remember the beard) Al Gore is certainly making up. First it was the movie, then the oscars, then the Emmys and now the Nobel Peace prize... Oh, Please. The world need not feel sorry for him. He is the lucky one.

Imagine if he had been declared the winner in the 2000 elections. There would be a good number of people in the world who will hate him for no reason but for the fact that he is the President of United States. I don't think that he being the President would have stopped 9/11. His reaction to 9/11 might have been slightly different but I bet he would have bombed a few places, too. And, that would have pissed a few more people. He now has the eternal "what if..." that makes him look a lot better than he would have been (like JFK).

I think "An Inconvenient truth" is a good movie (not a great one) that should have done well without Al Gore (to me he was a distraction). I don't need Al Gore to tell me that earth is worth saving. And, while he might have elevated the interest and concern about global warming did it really merit the Nobel Peace prize? If yes, here is a list of a few other potential Nobel peace prize winners in the coming years
- George Cooney for Darfur
- Angela Jolie for numerous causes
- Madonna
