They worked together. Across the space-time continuum.\n\nYou obviously aren't in the know.

God invented the internet, so the first site was www.bible.com.  If that doesn't work, try www.load_of_crap.com.  They're basically the same thing.

My understanding is he sponsored a funding bill for development of the internet.   But I don't remember the particulars.\n\nI think he got overexcited and overstated a legitimate accomplishment.  If he had said "Since I've been in the Senate, I've been involved with internet related legislation on a regular basis.  One of my proudest accomplishments was sponsoring XYZ bill, which enabled (whatever the heck it did for the internet)" then he would have been fine.  But he didn't.\n\nHe tried to backpedal because he realized that he looked like a horse's ass...just like anyone does when they realize they've stuck their foot in their mouth.

Very good question..\nPerhaps because the people that run yahoo are liberal dems...

Um, no. The internet is not an intelligent being. It's just a bunch of text and pictures hosted on different computers around the world.

Amazing. I'm not the only one who recognizes this.\n\nThe world doesn't revolve around the Democrats and the Republicans: correct, however, there are several sects in the Democratic and Republican parties. They include, but are not limited to Moderate, Conservative, and Liberal Republicans; Moderate, Conservative and Liberal Democrats; as well as Liberal and Conservative Centrists, Independents, Anarchist, Libertarians, Reform and Green. The whole Liberal or Conservative thing is getting old.

I so want Gore to run. He should run. He'll make a great president and no mistake. It's us Liberals turn to rub the NeoCons' noses in the dirt for a change. We can watch as Gore calmly reclaims the country that Clinton left in Bush's dirty hands. He will restore order, and restore the proper taxation that the fat cats should be paying.\n\nI'm so convinced of this that I plan on writing to Al Gore personally and ask him to do this for us. We need a strong leader and it's time for the Dems to meet that challenge.\n\nHere we are using the very medium that Gore worked so hard to bring about. Why wouldn't you vote for him. Without his legislation and tireless lobbying it's possible that the Internet would be confined to academia, government and the military only.\n\nWhat a guy!

Democrats are the same?  Therefore Republicans and Democrats are both ugly cartels of raving jesus freaks?  And I am a moron?

If you are referring to Webpages and anything to do with the HTTP protocol (collectively known as the World Wide Web), this was invented by Tim Berners-Lee at CERN in Switzerland, and not America as confused by many.\n\nWhat American  did invent though, was the foundations on which the WWW was created upon. This was called DARPA, and was built to survive nuclear attacks after Russia launched Sputnik and caused fear among the government. See the 2nd link for more detailed information. \n\nSo in essence the american government invented the internet,\nTim Berners-Lee made it possible for people like you and me to use it with web browsers and what not.

The people who say this are confusing this Democratic party with the Democratic party of FDR.  Simply put, its a totally different party.  The current Dem. party is the party of no idea, the party of obstruction and the anti-Juedo-Christian values party.

We all know (because he told us so) that Al Gore created the internet! ;-)

This from a Democrat:\n\nIt wasn't that long ago that the Republican Party was pro-business and for a strong national defense but also for civil rights and protecting our environment. \n\nNewt Gingrich was the evil political chemist who threw that out the window and melded the wealthiest Americans with the most socially conservative people in our society. His strange cocktail gave birth and power to the likes of Tom DeLay, James Dobson , Exxon and Halliburton.\n\nObviously the wealthiest Americans like the Walton family are greedy. I promise you that the far right's religious leaders are as well.\n\nWhen are the little people going to understand that they're being gamed? Jesus has nothing to do with this.

This is what he actually said during an interview with Wolf Blitzer on CNN's "Late Edition" program on 9 March 1999: \n\n"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."\n\nYou can decide for yourself whether he was actually claiming to have invented the Internet, or was he just being his usual pompous self (or both?)

While smoking banana peels with Tipper in the 60's, Al came up with a good idea. Let's build an information superhighway ! "\n\nAnd so he did. Al Gore realized that TCP/IP would not only allow computers to communicate with each other using dynamic rerouting, but would also reduce the emmisions which cause global warming.\n\nThis story is also told in the movie "Love Story" which was actually (according to Mr. Gore) about him and Tipper.

The purpose of the internet is the free exchange of ideas.\n\nSpread the Gospel of God's Salvation for all!
