CNN, hardly a contributor of "ultra right wing crap" still has the interview with Al Gore posted in which Al Gore said, "During my service in the United States Congress, I took the initiative in creating the Internet." (Link: <a href="http://www.cnn.com/ALLPOLITICS/stories/1999/03/09/president.2000/transcript.gore/index.html)" rel="nofollow">http://www.cnn.com/ALLPOLITICS/stories/1999/03/09/president.2000/transcript.gore/index.html)</a> Please note, he did not say that he sponsored or supported legislation that created or made the internet possible; he claimed to create (or invent, if you will) the internet. That said, yes, we all know what he meant, but what he meant is not what he said. So, please tell me when has any public figure--conservative or liberal--ever gotten a pass for a verbal gaffe? Ligthen up! Chris, I think you need to check your references.

Keep posting ultra right wing crap on the internet and eventually all the idiots will believe it. Al Gore never claimed to invent the internet! He claimed to sponsor legislation that led to what is today the internet. I miss the days when we had reporters. You know, people who actually checked facts before publishing. Way to go bonehead!
