This one is going to make the right wing nutosphere go absolutely bat shit --along with a few liberals and progressive. Last night during the Latino Netroots podcast [1] Nic mentioned Al Gore's imminent departure to Europe. I said it was to go pick up his Noble Peace prize. 
Boy, you would have thought I said he was going out there to skin some puppies.
La Bloguera [2] brought up the excellent point that Mr. Gore was vice-president when Clinton bombed Sudan but also when the Clinton administration passed the horrid anti-immigration laws that we are now contending with. Check out her rant at about 41 minutes into podcast.
BTW : I am listening to the podcast [3]right now and it's really, really fun.
Check out the committee's press release : The Nobel Peace Prize for 2007 [4]; and another naysayer at What has Al Gore done for world peace? [5]
