5. So, basically, they're just taking potshots.
So far, it seems like they're just flailing about.

6. Oh yes, I forgot about the Carter point.
I heard that one too. When/where did you hear the point about Petraeus? That one is new to me.

He did tsunami work, says Gore did absolutely nothing for people. He said Gore wants to inhibit developing countries. He called the Nobel committee a joke.

I punched my radio, so I couldn't hear anymore.

7. Yes.
1. Yasser Arafat won a Nobel. Therefore it means nothing.

2. Jimmy Carter too.

3. Alfred Nobel hates America.

4. Shut up, shut up, shut up.

12. It does not matter what they say...
Nothing can change the fact that AL Gore made me once again feel proud of my country.

19. Situation Room. Bozos at Work
Blitzer: "if global warming takes effect"

Dobbs: "the science is questionable"

Dobbs: "we are experiencing a 500 year drought in this country"

Who writes these lines?

18. My favorite so far was some blonde woman on CNN International right after the announcement
She TRIED to spin it into the Nobel committee chosing Gore to influence American Politics. When the anchor called her on it, she shifted to something like "well, the committee wanted to get a little bit of attention for itself" so they chose Gore.

Pod people. Mark my words. Some of these people just can't be from our planet.

24. Had the misfortune of turning on Hannity (eww) for about 5 minutes
Edited on Fri Oct-12-07 06:45 PM by bullwinkle428
this afternoon - just as you'd expect:

-THREE MANSIONS

-FLEW ON PRIVATE PLANE WITHIN THE LAST 48 HOURS

-ARAFAT WON SAME AWARD YEARS AGO (Hannity never mentions that it was joint award with Peres and Rabin)

-WHY COULDN'T THEY HAVE GIVEN IT TO REAGAN?

-WHY COULDN'T THEY HAVE GIVEN IT TO BUSH? (Swear on mother's life!!!!)

-WHY DON'T CONSERVATIVES EVER WIN IT?



Could they be any more predictable??? :rofl:
