If Gore had actually written a bill that promoted the Internet or the World Wide Web, then he could have made that statement but it would have still been overstating his efforts. All he did was vote for a bill that some one else wrote and that's like saying some one that voted for Clinton took the initiative with Monica Lewinsky. As usual, Gore was taking credit for something some one else had done. Tony |

As usual, Gore was taking credit for something some one else had done. So I'm guessing at least 60 or 70 other senators could say they "took the initiative in creating the Internet", and be equally (in)accurate. Most of 'em would probably have the good taste to say "we" instead of "I", though even those who wrote the bill couldn't really say they did anything other than help fund development (since creation of the thing was a long distant memory already by that time).
