This makes me proud to be an American. For awhile, and then it’s back to the horrors of the bush junta. Sigh.
Nope, can’t be sad yet! Congratulations, Al!!! Whoo-hoo!!! Could you please run for President now?
Update:
“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, 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.”
What a guy. Yay! Tipper, too!
I think Al should run for president of Earth. Why should America get to keep him all to yourselves?
