To the Editor:

Mother Teresa not only talked the talk, but she also walked the walk for her Nobel Prize.

Al Gore walks the walk and rides on his atmosphere-polluting private jet to his energy-consuming estate to win a Nobel Prize given for his work with global warming. Sheer hypocrisy.

The Nobel Peace Prize has evolved into a forum for a political statement and away from any real meaning. It is but a mere feel-good experience for the monied elite and aristocracy of the world perpetuating its flawed and politically correct stance. It’s sad.
