Hey Al Gore has won a Nobel Peace Prize! Good for him. It puts him in such excellent company. As Iowahawk cleverly points out.

UPDATE: Environmentalist Bjorn Lomborg has a less amusing but just as dismissive a take.

UPDATE II: The NYT weighs in with a big wet kiss on Mr. Gore's ever expanding hindquarters. However, the award given to Michael Murphy is too insignificant for the "newspaper of record" to notice.
