Al Gore: Expert Negotiator
By Wyatt Earp | June 8, 2009
Al Gore, global warming alarmist, Nobel Prize recipient, and *gag* Academy Award winner may go to North Korea to negotiate the release of two American journalists imprisoned there.
Oh yeah, you heard me: Al Freakin’ Gore.
And he’s totally serial!
The United States might send former US vice president Al Gore to Pyongyang in order to negotiate the release of two American journalists on trial in North Korea for illegal entry.
State Department spokesman Ian Kelly did not rule out such a possibility when asked if it would make sense to send Gore, who is chairman of the California station Current TV, which employs the two journalists.
Hey jackass, this isn’t ManBearPig you’re going after. It’s the leadership of North Korea. A leadership who has done nothing but spit in the face of America for half a century now. Sending a novice to secure the release of these women is insane!
The two women, Laura Ling and Euna Lee, went on trial in North Korea Thursday on charges that could send them to a labor camp for years and further raise tensions with Washington following last week’s nuclear test.
The TV reporters were detained by North Korean border guards on March 17 while researching a story about refugees fleeing the hardline communist state. (H/T – Breitbart)
Don’t worry, ladies; Algore is on the case. Excelsior!

I take it Jesse Jackson was busy.
Wonderful; next thing you know, Gore’ll become the Secretary-General of the UN for life and save the world from all of our follies. What…a…joke!
I’m all for this. Just imagine the Norks arresting Big Al as a spy for the U.S., then trying to ransome his sorry ass for more cash to fund their nuclear arms wet dreams! I can’t wait!
I think this plan might work. Old Al will show ‘em his global warming slide show, and when the N Koreans doze off, he can sneak the two journalists out of the country. Brilliant! They used a similar plan on a Gilligan’s Island episode to rescue Mary Ann and Ginger from some headhunters and it worked perfectly.

If we don’t pay off, they might send him home!
The Great Gorbecile should have been there all along! Those two “reporters” are his employees! They work for Al’s tv channel ‘Current’.
Not one word of outrage or protestation of innocence from the great Pus Bucket during any of this!
He’s still a coward.
John D,got it right…they’ll be bored into a complete stupor.
I hope the girls get released regardless of who secures that freedom for them; however, isn’t the “thank you” hug punishment, too? Ewww…hugging Al Gore? YUK!
It would appear they crossed the border from China in search of a story.
What on earth did they think they were doing and why should anyone bail them out? There are times when stupidity has its own reward.
I hope the story was worth it, ladies.
Can we trade Al straight up for the two girls?
Be quiet my heart. If Big Al was to be arrested and held for 12 years is my fantasy. Perhaps we need to send Hillary and Bill along to stir up more time for all. MUD
Doghouse – Or under investigation.
Morgan – Then he can use the UN Security Council to hunt for ManBearPig.
Mike47 – I’d offer them two bits for Al’s release.
John D – Wow, a Gilligan’s Island reference!
Echosix – Can’t have that!
1OldLeg – And he’s not exactly loyal to his employees.
Diller – As I am when I hear him speak.
RT – He probably reeks of polar bear.
Alan B – You would think the Great Wall would have stopped them. Heh.
Sully – Done and done!
MUD – It would be a true miracle!
“The Manchus were finally able to cross the Great Wall in 1644, when the gates at Shanhaiguan were opened by Wu Sangui, a Ming border general who disliked the activities of rulers of the Shun Dynasty”
Such borders fail utterly when someone wants it to.
