No-one seems to be aware that the 2007 Peace Prize was shared. Al Gore wasn’t nominated “for a slide show” but for 20 years of environmental work. And the International Panel on Climate Change was nominated for its members’ work in collating scientists’ research on climate change, something important to us all.

No-one has mentioned Zegota – the clandestine Polish society formed to save Jewish people from the Nazis. Irena Sendler was the head of their Warsaw children’s section. She was a wonderful person, but she had many colleagues and friends who worked with her. They deserve remembering too.

First Off, The Nominees Of The Nobel Peace Prize Are Kept A Secret For 50 Years… Second, Irena Sendler Was Not Eligible For The Nobel Peace Prize In 2007… She Didn’t Meet The Requirements… This Is Not To Take Anything Away From The Heroic Efforts Of Irena Sendler To Save As Many Children As She Could From The Nazi Death Camps… She Was A Great Woman And Her Story Is A Great Story… Al Gore Is Simply Not Part Of It… To Try And Politicize Irena’s Story Does A Great Disservice Not Only To Her Memory, But To The Memories Of All Those She Helped To Survive…

Just My Opinion… What The Hell Do I Know?

Al Gore made no sacrifices for his ‘prize’. In fact, he PROFITED from his global warming panic mongering. A man of character, with nothing more than a biased slideshow, would have stepped aside in recognition of a far superior human being that put her life on the line.

Al Gore is an idiot. Yeah right, he invented the internet and has a so-called green house. Give me a break. Irena did more for humanity than Gore has done for the environment. Look at his track record for energy consumption is.

Well that’s true. It wasn’t a slideshow, it was a “documentary” filled with gross exaggeration’s and lies. But hey, when there’s fear to monger, Why let the facts get in the way.

Nah, Beck really is an asshole. It’s completely a slam. Especially when he says “Al Gore won for a slideshow”.

Judging by these comments, it sounds like this website is the one pushing the agenda!
Keep up the great work, Glenn!

I think he did a very good job of telling her story. And the so called ‘slam’ on Al Gore wasn’t really slamming him, more so the people who picked him over her. I think it’s a valid point.

Besides if it was really THAT bad more people would care about what he said besides you.

I didn’t hear any spin coming from Glenn on this regarding the green movement. Since Al gore actually won and Irena Sendler did not, that’s observation based on factual events. I think it’s more a commentary on the state of our society.

If Al Gore had any class he would have put his ego aside and walked away and let someone who actually had courage get the recognition. The media will continue to blow sunshine up his ass for years to come; even after this slight warming trend which plateaued in 98 and will soon resume its natural decline ends and he starts his “coming ice age” rhetoric.
