Apple is honoring Al Gore’s Nobel Peace Prize win today with a photo of Gore and a message posted to Apple.com that reads:
Al has put his heart and soul, and much of his life during the past several years, into alerting and educating us all on the climate crisis. We are bursting with pride for Al and this historic recognition of his global contributions.
The story is also posted as part of Apple.com’s “Hot News” (ironic, no?) section here

What a waste of web space…
No one has explained how global warming hysteria generation and propagandizing is related to the Nobel “Peace” Prize.
Regardless what Steve says, Gore is still a schmuck.
uh oh… here we go, countdown to men stupidity
Hey Al,
Please run for President and save the world from Stalin’s Daughter (aka Red Hillary) !
I emailed and complained. Sad when fictions wins such awards, but the Nobel Prize committee jumped the shark 20 years ago, so they are irrelevant anyway…
countdown to total idiocy on MDN about a change in the world that is definite and seen by all in 5,4,3,2,1….
Why the Peace prize?
Conflict is often greatest in areas where resources are scare as groups of people fight for water, land, and food. Global warming is going to worsen the fight for water, food and other resources.
By trying to bring the world’s attention to the global warming problem, Al Gore is fostering peace by reducing the reasons to fight in the first place. This is why he won the Nobel Peace Prize.
Countdown to everybody saying “Coundown to ???” in 5, 4, 3, 2, …
Now… what I would REALLY pay money to see, is Al Gore give a speach on Global Warming and somewhere in that speach use the phrase “Idaho, I’m looking in your direction!”
Now THAT would be funny.
Al Gore is a ECO-HYPOCRITE!!!
Just look at all the electricity he’s wasting.
3 Apple 30″ displays and a TV on at the same time.

BAD AL!!!
Lol… or he could give a speech…
20 to 30 years from now we’ll look back at all the Global Warming Cultists the same way we look at Flat Earthers now.
It was an “obvious truth” that “everyone believed” that the earth was flat, and the universe revolved around the earth at one point.
You can only keep a hoax going for so long. Eventually enough serious minded people will see through it. I have to hand it to the global warming crowd, they really have stretched this thing out.
But then again there’s still ~10% people who believe Elvis is alive, and many still think the Earth is flat.
Whatever.
Tipper’s gettin’ some tonight.
“Climate Scientist” good for you. Over in the UK they have more sense, they can’t screen Gore’s fantasy, er, um, film in class unless they also point out the numerous non-truths.
BARF!!!!!!
Al is just another dud alongside a string of duds who have won that prize. The Swedes are insane. They are the retarded cousin of the civilized world.
I see an Al Gore iPod coming.
Green of course and it glows if it gets near fluorocarbons.
I remember back when I was in high school in the late 60’s the big debate was global cooling.
My, how times have changed!
All the negativity in this forum. The dude just got a once-in-a-lifetime award. Give him a break.
Alot of you just really irritate me…. >.< *shakes fist*
2012
look it up.
Yeah, I noticed on ABC News with Charles Gibson that when they were talking about his documentary saying that something about his “PowerPoint presentation”?… ummm, I thought he did with Keynote, right??!
Other recipients of the Nobel peace prize are Yassar Arraft (a terrorist), and Jimmy Carter (a feckless and spineless asshat). So, Al’s in good company.
Le Duc Tho – oversaw Communist insurgency against South Vietnamese government
Jimmy Carter – most incompetent 20th century American president (grain embargo, Olympic boycott, failed US economy, energy crisis, failed iranian negotiations & hostage rescue, etc.)
Yasser Arafat – terrorist
Al Gore – “inventor” of internet, an assault on reason, hawker of imaginary man-made climate change, generator of hot-air
That’s my favorite liberal company… good thing they make good products or I’d have no respect for their baffoonery.
