Corkey,
I understood the explaination about Eisenhower, however it is not an excuse for lying. But it is moot because he never said that. If he had you most likely would have seen the left wing making fun of him, since he didn't say it you cannot prove that they would not have. But one thing is for sure he wouldn't have said that he invented paved roads, which is tantamount to what Gore said. If he had you could be sure he would have been ridiculed and laughed at. The point about Gore is that he claimed to start legislation to create the internet. But the legislation did nothing to create a sysetem already in use two decades before the legislation came out. IMO Gore meant to say he created the World Wide Web. Which would be another lie, but at least he wouldn't have been as stupid. |

What existed at the time that Gore began his support was not the internet as we know it today, but Gore apparently could see it's potential, and that's what he was trying to promote. This person says it better than I can, but I have a feeling that you are determined to believe that Gore fully intended to brag that he and he alone invented the internet despite the substantial evidence to the contrary: http://web.archive.org/web/200401040....the.Inte.html Corky Scott |

Hell I used a card reader in the early 70's that was plugged into a mainframe from a branch of a university to the main univercity via the internet. The internet is simply a network that is cordinated via routers. It is not the software that is on the internet. Gore later said that he helped write a bill that promoted the World Wide Web, computers for servers and a search engine for that graphical interface. Before that the internet was mostly character based like the first MS-Dos computers. But Gore claimed he created the internet which was created two decades before he got involved. |

If you did, you would undstand taht eisenhower would not have been lying. But it is moot because he never said that.

But one thing is for sure he wouldn't have said that he invented paved roads, which is tantamount to what Gore said. No, that is not tatmount to what Gore said. It isn't even at all like what Gore said. The point about Gore is that he claimed to start legislation to create the internet. But the legislation did nothing to create a sysetem already in use two decades before the legislation came out. Close. He claims to have pushed the legislatino forward, not initiated it. Evidenlty he was refering the Web, incorrectly, and the internet. Actually if you think about it, a lot of people do. Some, like GWB, even claim there are multiple internets. IMO Gore meant to say he created the World Wide Web. No, that is not your opinion. Obviously you are lying about you opinon. -- FF |
