Mr. Gore now shares this honorful distinction with such humanitarians as Yassir Arafat and Kofi Anan.

Gore deserved the prize for going against Dubya Bush and all the others who thought American bucks were more important than saving the planet.

Gore deserves to be banned from the planet for polluting it with excess carbon by flying around in his Gulf Stream Jet, throwing trash out over the Pacific Ocean and causing a garbage island, and for inventing the internet, and thereby, internet porn.

But yeah, he is certainly in with his peers.
