Well, it's certainly no surprise, in fact, it was pretty much inevitable. Yet, you can't help but feel astonished at just how far the stature of this award has sunk. It's one thing to give the award to terrorists like Yassir Arafat, but now they're giving the award to someone who preaches a religious belief in false science.

The only head of state on the globe that is telling the truth on the subject is Czech President Vaclav Klaus. Though I am a little disappointed to hear him say he is "somewhat surprised" that Gore won. Please. Gore has all the credentials for what the Nobel Committee considers greatness. He is advocating the destruction of freedom. That's what Global Warming is all about. No surprises here.

MORE: Heard a little bit of Rush in the car this morning. He reminds us that there is a silver-lining to this: Bill Clinton has to be furious.
