Want to know why Nobel Laureate Al Gore likely doesn't want to debate any of the myriad of scientists and politicians that have challenged him to such a tête-à-tête regarding his manmade global warming theories?
Could it possibly be because Gore was a terrible science student, and clearly never excelled at anything relating to what folks in Norway and in the media consider him to be so expert at?
(Excerpt) Read more at newsbusters.org ...
Which is why they gave him the Nobel Peace Prize and not the Nobel Prize for Science.
Hmmm... I got a D- in fundamental math in college — but then again, I don’t pretend to be a NASA scientist...
Oh, it’s just a matter of time before they give him the Nobel Science Prize for “inventing” the Internet.......
Did you get 5 “F” s in Divinity school too?
The article goes on to point out his prep school physics and chemistry scores were the equivalent of a low D and low C.
How did this Bozo get into Harvard? Oh yeah, DADDY.
“Al Gore got a ‘D’ in natural sciences at Harvard.”
The only surprises here are 1) that Al Gore went to Harvard and 2) that he didn’t get an ‘F’ for his shabby thinking.
“Which is why they gave him the Nobel Peace Prize and not the Nobel Prize for Science.”
For his work in alerting the world to something he clearly doesn’t understand. Hmmmmm, you don’t see any irony?
I went to Catholic school... did awful in all classes except, for some reason, religion. I was a very, very bad girl during my youth. Did all the bad things you can imagine, but came from great and excellent parents. It’s a small miracle that I turned up as “normal” as I am today. Everyone’s got disfunctionalities — whoever says that they don’t have some sort of disfunction, or that their families don’t have some sort of disfunction, are living on another planet.
Judging from his current level of understanding of natural sciences, that must have been a “charity D”.
Piece of What? prize
Gore seems to have lucked out getting into Harvard with a C plus average. At my high school, which was highly ranked, you needed 1400 SAT’s and be in the top 5-10% of the class to even be considered.
How do you flunk God?
He gets a “F” for Peace Keeping!

The Goreacle’s Dad was a TN state senator at the time...I think...
I, unlike Al Gore, have a sense of humor. It’s all good, Kid!
Senior year?
Look at it this way, folks. In today’s grades it was a B+.
That explains so much.
It’s quite ironic that algorithm got a D in science!
BTW, the writer should get an “F” in geography. It ain’t Norway, it’s Sweden, stupid!
I took a few courses back when I was young. I never thought to refer to them as "divinity courses" but that is what they were.
I wanted to gain more insights into the Bible and history.
Instead I was barraged with a series of assignments that were designed (I believe) to discourage young persons from any sort of desire to defend their traditional beliefs.
I believe that I did learn a lot from those Courses, but there was a lot of research and papers required. They were difficult, and they pissed me off at the purveyors of the so called "higher criticisms."
I dunno. I have a pretty active imagination.
Yup. As they say, “Been there; done that”...
ROTFLOL!
The political champion of the natural world received that sophomore D in Natural Sciences 6 (Man’s Place in Nature) and then got a C-plus in Natural Sciences 118 his senior year. The self-proclaimed inventor of the Internet avoided all courses in mathematics and logic throughout college,
Are we surprised that he avoided logic.
I’m not saying that the Nobel folks aren’t a few french fries short of a happy meal, I’m just stating a fact: He wasn’t nominated for a Nobel Prize in Science!
A “D”.
Then he is definately the man to supporting and talking about global warming. ROTFLMAO
He got a D in “physics for poets”???
“Rocks for Jocks”???
BWAHAHAHAAA!!!
OHhh WOE is me... whys everybody pickin on me???
Noted. By a Norwegian committee.
However, the award is Swedish, awarded in Stockholm, Sweden.

:-)
It wasn’t luck that got him a C plus average. It was BUCKS.
“The only surprises here are 1) that Al Gore went to Harvard and 2) that he didnt get an F for his shabby thinking.”
It doesn’t surprise me that he got into Harvard.
My uncle is a Harvard grad, and let’s just say that he’s not exactly the brightest bulb in the marquee ok?
And the scary thing is he’s an “environmental engineer”
“For his work in alerting the world to something he clearly doesnt understand. Hmmmmm, you dont see any irony?”
More like alerting the world that Harvard isn’t all that it’s cracked up to be.
Gore's Inconvenient 9/11 Truth
dealing with his analytical abilities, or lack thereof
It's thought that he wanted it to be free of political manipulation. So much for that idea.
A D, huh??
Well, he’s flunked Climatology 101, based on his film, but he is excelling at BS 102 as evidenced by all the media attention he is generating.
What the media fails to mention, however, that the people who buy Al’s BS scored lower than he did in Natural History.
That’s why they think he’s a genius!!
(P.T. Barnum is both overjoyed and frustrated. On the one-hand, he appreciates Al proving him right . . . . AGAIN!! But, on the other hand, he wishes he had been the one to dream up Al’s cockamamy global warming/carbon credits scheme!!!)
The grades were of slight interest during the Pres campaigns of 2000. While Algore’s level in science is about seventh grade, he has exceptional skills in other areas such as rhetoric. Rhetoric has long been the top science. Besides that, it is commonly known that the aristocracy avoids learning any manual skills that might qualify them as a mechanic or gardener.
The “D” Gore got in his science course was actually the professor’s sly expression of his opinion of Al.
The “D” stood for “Dummy” but since his father was a Senator, the teacher cut him some slack (as in “slacker”).
Let’s just say that Gore married “up”. The rest of his career/life has been one big fraud.
Gore’s “D” stand for dumb ass.
Gore’s “D” stands for dumb ass.
“It doesnt surprise me that he got into Harvard”
With a C average?
That helps : )
FWIW Rumor has it he also flunked out of a postgraduate divinity school.
Could you provide a URL for the above? Thanks.
Here is a URL that tells you otherwise. It "mentions a Norwegian Committee" among all Swedish institutions :
http://nobelprize.org/prize_awarders/
Sorry, but affirmative to your "negative", here is another URL that tells that the award ceremonies are in STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN and the speeches are in Oslo, Norway
http://nobelprize.org/award_ceremonies/
So much for your idea. :-)
Just as an aside, something that is never talked about is, Bush is the highest educated president in the history of America.( I think). He has an MBA and to my knowledge, nobody else has a higher degree. If anyone knows of another please correct me.
