(2007-10-12) — Although former Vice President Al Gore won the Nobel Peace Prize this week for his work as a global-warming performance artist, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled early today that President George Bush would receive the gold medal, the diploma and the $750,000.
Mr. Bush, who was narrowly defeated by Mr. Gore in the 2000 presidential election, thanked Justices John Roberts and Samuel Alito “for swinging the vote my way, and helping me to join the pantheon of great Nobel laureates like Jimmy Carter and the late Yassir Arafat who together brought peace to the middle east.”
Mr. Gore could not be reached for comment as he was returning from Oslo, Norway , in a private jet. However, his spokesman said that his efforts to bring peace on earth speak for themselves.
Heh... to quote a rather famous instantaneous-pundit. RTWT, Gentle Reader, RTWT.
Oh, funny. And Bush needs the money.
