Now that Al Gore has hooked up with Alfred Nobel, everyone wants to know: Is he or isn't he ... planning to run for President? Nobel's given him a bump. You can see it in the polls. You can see it when you look at him. A.Go's cheeks are rosy and his tummy is bulging. (Good thing he lost the beard. That would be way too freaky.)
So why the silence? Is he waiting to tell his family? Is he stressing over which friend to tell first? (He should just take them out to lunch and announce it to all of them at once.) Or has he been too busy vomiting?
The chatter is only getting louder. Come on, Al, tell us. There's a massive baby shower waiting to happen. (Note to attendees: No gifts over $2300.)
Vote below - then read why Al Gore is not just another Rita Moreno.

1. Gore will wait until the day before the deadline for applying for candidacy, then throw his hat into the ring, thereby saving us all from ruin.
Barring that, there's always the write-in option. Imagine all the campaign money he'll save if we just go ahead and vote for him anyway.

2. Al is getting loads of positive attention this way. This is much more fun.
Who the hell wants to be president? That is a dreadful job!

3. I want Al Gore to run, so I'm pretty sure he won't.

4. For..All his disgraceful...er hard..."campaigning" for the award, along with the leftist media hype and backing, bagged the left wing organizations big boob prize! Wow I'm so surprized!! And to add to it he shares it with the UN! SWEET... A wonderful, loving, fair and just organization that loves America and her interests as well! I am so proud today... his "theory" won over an old woman who helped save Jews from extermination! Oh, the fairness of it all...Because we all know global warming has everything to do with peace(?)....He can put his little award up on the mantle piece of one of his four energy sucking homes along with his Hollywood awards. So heartwarming to imagine...And I will never forget where I was when AlGore won the prize.....on the shitter... taking a big one. Here's one for the Gore, ya make me Proud Al.

Dear Everyone,
I am deeply honored to receive the Nobel Peace Prize. This award is even more meaningful because I have the honor of sharing it with the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change--the world's pre-eminent scientific body devoted to improving our understanding of the climate crisis--a group whose members have worked tirelessly and selflessly for many years. We face a true planetary emergency. The climate crisis is not a political issue, it is a moral and spiritual challenge to all of humanity. It is also our greatest opportunity to lift global consciousness to a higher level.
My wife, Tipper, and I will donate 100 percent of the proceeds of the award to the Alliance for Climate Protection (http://www.climateprotect.org/), a bipartisan non-profit organization that is devoted to changing public opinion in the U.S. and around the world about the urgency of solving the climate crisis.
Thank you,
Al Gore

HI MO!!
I just love Al in that dress, its very flattering.
Although there has been an ongoing draft Al Gore movement,
,
the group has never been given any encouragement from Al . But Al has used those ambiguous words "I have no intentions of running" the same words used by Larry Craig when he said he is resigning.
On the other hand Al has been been a rising star since he lost the election. Now he is a has an oscar and a nobel peace prize. Will he throw his stardom away for a run for president and again be thrown under the bus in a mud slinging campaign . I think not. Life is too good at the top. He can continue to be the king of global warning and do more for the world than he could as president, with all its politcal liabilities.
Congradulations AL !!!!!!!

9. He should hold out for the Democratic winner (and he or she will win) and then be named head of the EPA. I can't think of anyone better suited for the job. Besides, he could push for real change w/o having to cower to campaign contributors, etc.

10. He has a better chance now more than ever at winning. It would be interesting to see what he will focus his campaign around if he does run. As long as he has stays away from Manbearpig and keeps everything super cereal, I'd say, "watch out!" to Hillary.

11. This pandering fat tub of lard is shameful. He and his hypocrite wife who embraced Hollywood... AFTER they said they were destroying our culture...and BEFORE they gave him an oscar for his theory film about ...himself... What in the hell does the global warming theory have to do with Peace? Why didnt the humble old lady who helped save Jews from extermination win this aware? Because she doesnt fly around in a gas guzzling private jet campaigning for it! She doesnt own four, hugh, energy consuming (30x the average american) homes, or limos with drivers to travel around in either and we all know how Impressed we are by those that live like that (albeit on the backs of others). Can we say hyprocracy? This makes the organization that nominated Hitler, Stalin, Yaser, and Carter for the very same aware for "Peace!"... even more laughable, if thats at all possible.

12. THIS IS A SAD DAY. THE ELITES WIN OVER THE DESERVING AND THE HUMBLE ONCE AGAIN. SHAMEFUL.

14. And so "another" socialist won "another" statue from "another" left wing, hate america organization. Is this news to anyone? I wish I had rich friends...I would have won the bet! Given the formula, I knew once his name was thrown in, he had it in the bag. So very typically obvious...
