And he always was a nut.

"During my service in the United States Congress, I took the initiative in creating the Internet. I took the initiative in moving forward a whole range of initiatives that have proven to be important to our country's economic growth and environmental protection, improvements in our educational system. "

From your link. It appears he did say "I took the initiative in creating the Internet."
Whether one takes it out of context or not, he did say it.

Did you read the links I posted?
From The Arizona Republic: "In fact, as the chairman of a key science subcommittee in 1986, Gore did foster the creation of five supercomputer centers through the National Science Foundation that became the cornerstone of the Internet."

It's absolutely true that he didn't invent the internet. But it is also true that, while in Congress, he did indeed take quite a bit of initiative in sponsoring or supporting legislation that aided in the creation of the internet to its current modern form. The most important of these, IMO, were NFSnet and the High-Performance Computing Act of 1991.

You were talking about context?

God, I hate politics. I hate Democrats because they are socialist idiotic turds and I hate Republicans because they are slanderous lying pieces of fanboi sh!t.

The first group flings feces at gore for "inventing the internet" and once proper information is presented, a second wave of idiots calls the people who presented factual information "gore nuts... don't know when to stop."

Education almost falls victim to blindness.

I agree with Vic on this one. Most of you are ignorant fools who don't know what you are talking about. I suggest you shut your faces and start researching what you say.

Please post substantial evidence and your sources and quit pulling crap from your arses.

You mean they shouldn't depend on Rush to tell them all they need to know?:Q
