conservatives aren't much better...

Al Gore and the internet, anyone?

Let's see...the actual quote: "During my service in the United States Congress, I took the initiative in creating the Internet."

Which, by the way, was supported by Vint Cerf (look him up if you don't know who he is).

Now...the conservative spin:

"Al Gore said he invented the internet."

Let alone the Conservative bullshit about Gore and Love Canal and Gore and Love Story.
