As correct as some of the things this man is saying may be— and many of them, I imagine, are— I can’t feel that crying about how the Republicans don’t respect Gore, wah wah wah, all of them are big old meanies with no common sense, wah, is particularly constructive either. (Though as an Op-Ed columnist, maybe that’s what he ought to be doing…?)

For the record, I feel like giving the Nobel Prize to Gore is a little political and a little hypey, although the fact that he’s sharing it helps a little. Maybe the committee thought giving it to him would draw proper attention to the matter…?
