Gore to receive award at International Emmys

Gore to receive award at International Emmys.

On Monday night at the 35th International Emmy Awards, Robert DeNiro will present Al Gore with the Founders Award. The honor is not only “in recognition of his role in raising the alarm about global warming, but also for his efforts in launching the interactive Current TV.” Earlier this year, Gore also won an Emmy award for the global television network, which allows viewers to “create and influence what airs on TV.”

3. He has yet to win the Conn Smythe trophy.

But he still has some time.

I was just wondering what a comparison of Bush's "trophy shelf" versus Vice President Gore's trophy shelf would be, this is what I came up with:

Books - Al Gore

The Assault on Reason
Earth in the Balance
An Inconvenient Truth


Books - George Bush

My Pet Goat



Awards - Al Gore
An Academy Award
An Emmy Award
The Founders Award
Nobel Peace Prize

Awards - George Bush

World's Stupidity Award (no kidding)



Video/Movies/Documentaries - Al Gore

An Inconvenient Truth



Video/Movies/Documentaries - George Bush

No WMD There video from the Press Dinner




Edited to correct poor sentence structure and crappy alignment
