"Al Gore, the Nobel Peace Prize and Global Warming" | |

Connecting the dots is our business and what the dots connect with Al Gore and the Nobel Peace Prize, smells to high heaven. Alfred Nobel dedicated his wealth to the establishment of the Nobel prizes that were to be awarded to individuals, or groups of individuals, that excelled in physics, chemistry, medicine, literature and peace. "However, Nobel may have feared that the highly political nature of the Peace Prize would make it a tool in power politics and thereby reduce its significance as an instrument for peace. A prize committee selected by a rather progressive parliament from a small nation on the periphery of Europe, without its own foreign policy and with only a very distant past as autonomous military power, may perhaps have been expected to be more innocent in matters of power politics than would a committee from the most powerful of the Scandinavian countries, Sweden. In his will, Nobel wrote: "It is my express wish that in awarding the prizes no consideration be given to the nationality of the candidates, but that the most worthy shall receive the prize, whether he be Scandinavian or not." (NOTE: This quote was taken from the following website: http://nobelpeaceprize.org/eng_com_nor.html) We decided to find out just who the names of the members of this elite group of Norwegian individuals were, that served on this august Nobel Peace Prize committee, to determine their backgrounds and political persuasion. This is what we found. The Norwegian Nobel Peace Prize Committee Members, 2006-2008 MJØS, Ole Danbolt, b. 1939. FURRE, Berge Ragnar, b. 1937. RØNBECK, Sissel Marie, b. 1950. YTTERHORN, Inger-Marie, b. 1941. FIVE, Kaci Kullmann, b. 1951. | |

"THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF RURAL LANDOWNERS" The National Association of Rural Landowners (NARLO) is a non-profit corporation, duly licensed in the State of Washington. It was formed in response to draconian land use ordinances that were passed by King County in Washington State (Seattle) in the late Fall of 2004, after vociferous opposition from rural landowners. NARLO's mission is to begin the long process of restoring, preserving and protecting Constitutional property rights and returning this country to a Constitutional Republic. Government has done a great job of dividing us up into little battle groups where we are essentially impotent at a national level. We will change all that with the noisy voices and the vast wealth tied up in the land of the American rural landowner. The land is our power, if we will just use that power, before we lose it. We welcome donations and volunteers who believe as we do, that government abuses against rural landowners have gone on for far too long and a day of reckoning is at hand. To learn more, visit our website at www.narlo.org. President Roosevelt, in his 1933 inaugural address said, “…. The only thing we have to fear is fear itself”. I maintain that the only thing we have to fear is unbridled government. The only way unbridled government can exist is if WE THE PEOPLE allow it. | |
