OSLO, Norway (AP) -- Former Vice President Al Gore (http://search.breitbart.com/q?s=%22Former+Vice+President+Al+Gore%22&sid=breitbart.com) was nominated for the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize for his wide-reaching efforts to draw the world's attention to the dangers of global warming (http://search.infocious.com/q?s=%22global+warming%22&ssrc=rss:greencoast&ssrc=vid:greencoast&xsl=greencoast), a Norwegian lawmaker said Thursday.
"A prerequisite for winning the Nobel Peace Prize (http://search.breitbart.com/q?s=%22Nobel+Peace+Prize%22&sid=breitbart.com) is making a difference, and Al Gore (http://search.breitbart.com/q?s=%22Al+Gore%22&sid=breitbart.com) has made a difference," Conservative Member of Parliament Boerge Brende, a former minister of environment and then of trade, told The Associated Press.
Brende said he joined political opponent Heidi Soerensen of the Socialist Left Party to nominate Gore as well as Canadian Inuit activist Sheila Watt-Cloutier before the nomination deadline expired Thursday.
"Al Gore, like no other, has put climate change (http://search.infocious.com/q?s=%22climate+change%22&ssrc=rss:greencoast&ssrc=vid:greencoast&xsl=greencoast) on the agenda. Gore uses his position to get politicians to understand, while Sheila works from the ground up," Brende said.
During eight years as Bill Clinton's vice president, Gore pushed for climate measures, including for the Kyoto Treaty (http://search.infocious.com/q?s=%22Kyoto+Treaty%22&ssrc=rss:greencoast&ssrc=vid:greencoast&xsl=greencoast). Since leaving office in 2001 he has campaigned worldwide, including with his Oscar- nominated documentary on climate change called "An Inconvenient Truth."
Norwegian lawmakers are among the thousands of people and groups with rights to nominate Nobel candidates. Others include members of national governments, past laureates, members of the awards committee and its staff, and many university professors. The winner is traditionally announced in mid-October, with the prize always presented on the Dec. 10 anniversary of the death of its creator, Swedish industrialist Alfred Nobel.

Even if you think Al Gore's 1000 percent right about global warming, what's that got to do with "peace"? Shouldn't he be up for a prize in one of the sciences or something?

... Al Gore has made a difference ...Indeed he has. But then so did Hussein and Charles Manson. Making a "difference" is not a standard for anything.

The bovine has done more to spread peace (through their generous donation of their delicious meat) that algore ever will.

First, Arafart. Then, Jimmeh Cahtah. Now Al Global Warming Gore.
Need we more proof that the Nobel Prize has sunk to the level of the Oscars, and should be taken as "seriously" as the golden statuette?
And don't give me any rot about Rush being nominated, whatdoyouthinkofthat, blah, blah, blah. If you listen to Rush, you should know how "seriously" he takes his nomination.

Rush Limbaugh has also been nominated (though you know how much chance he has of getting it).

It really ain't no wonder that Rosie's a lizzie. No human male would touch that cow, not even Peter Singer.

Yeah, Gore has made a difference. He's persuaded about half the world that silly-ass bullshit is as real as science, and that science therefore doesn't matter.

And why not her? She deserves it as much as any other recent winner.

Considering that Algore is a woody--so to speak--it all sort of comes around full circle.

The Nobel Piece Prize for Harris Pilton.
Makes more sense than a Nobel Peace Prize for Woodenhead Al or Woodendick Jimmeh or Woodenface Yasir.

It would be perfect, really, one fraud honoring another. Anyone who can give a "peace prize" to Yasser Arafat is out of his gourd.
