No, he didn't say that no matter how many times you claim he did.

Fred, Gore did say "I took the initiative in creating the Internet." There
are plenty of cites for this up thread. Hell, even Corky admits he said
that.

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.

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).

Truth is stranger than fiction.
This is why writers and readers prefer fiction.
