Why do Republican Conservatives continue to lie about Al Gore claiming to have invented the Internet?

Question

http://www.snopes.com/quotes/internet.asp
I guess they can't be honest. What's your guess ?

Brick, you need to change the first letter of your name to a P.

Some of you will look me right in the eye and lie to me. Some of you did it again in your answers. Despite the link I provided. Is that link that agrees with me part of the "liberal" media conspiracy ?

No Beachman. This is not what bothers me the most. Do you only talk about things that bother you the most ?

Answer 1

It is not a guess, anybody that is a threat to their narrow minded view is immediately subject to character assassination, that is the only way that they have to express themselves and give them a chance to win any election. There are exceptions, but only a few.

Answer 2

Because He made that claim while he was Vice President.
While a Senator, he provided a research grant. Some one else invented it and he took credit for it. Kinda like the Carbon Credit.
Einstein's like yourself who talk green but aren't, pay money to make yourself feel like you are doing something about the environment,you are actually paying for Big Al's Gulfstream and monstrous energy bill for his FOUR mansions. Clinton did rub off on Big Al to the extent being a Braggart. Al misses two points about crediblity. Point one. One must adopt a green lifestyle and do green activities actual and virtual for it's ownsake, because it is smart and cost effective thereby being an Example for others to Follow...Leadership what a concept for you. Point Two. The Kyoto Treaty (What Global Warming is all About) is a Dodo and politics doth not a scientist make. Remember what happened to Gallileo. He asserted the earth revolved around the Sun and the politicians of the day silenced him, much in the same manner as Al Gores lackeys in the press, in academia, and assorted scientists who are getting grants are trying to silence the skeptics. Europe will not meet it's Kyoto targets (The signatories of Kyoto) for this year. If they pay the Carbon Tax Penalty Does big Al get a Check? Also I believe there was this "Little incident" called the Reformation where the Papacy enabled all those who wanted to be Fabulous and hobnob past the pearly gates pay a fee to absolve oneself from sin. It was plainly fraudulent.
Today, we substitute Carbon in place of Sin and Eureka! Al Gore Gets paid!

Answer 3

Transcript: vice chairman Gore on CNN's 'overdue version' BLITZER: i elect to get to distinct the substance of significant different and toddlers and international themes in a minute, yet enable's merely wrap up a touch of the politics today. Why might want to Democrats, searching on the Democratic nomination procedure, assist you quite of invoice Bradley, a buddy of yours, a former colleague contained in the Senate? What do you may want to carry to this that he doesn't unavoidably carry to this procedure? GORE: properly, i'd be providing -- i'd be providing my creative and prescient even as my campaign starts off. and it will be finished and sweeping. and that i'm hoping that it will be compelling adequate to entice people in the route of it. i think that it will be. although this is going to emerge from my communicate with the american people. i have traveled to each and each thing of this u . s . in the course of the merely accurate six years. for the period of my provider interior united statesa. Congress,********** I took the initiative in arising the internet*********. I took the initiative in shifting ahead an entire decision of initiatives which have shown to be major to our u . s .'s economic boom and environmental protection, improvements in our academic gadget.

Answer 4

Gore did not say he "invented" the Internet. In the March 9, 1999, interview on CNN's Late Edition with Wolf Blitzer that gave rise to the myth, Gore actually said: "During my service in the United States Congress, I took the initiative in creating the Internet." Your second question is merely trolling and doesn't deserve an answer.

Answer 5

You're right. However, there is not a dime's difference between the way the two parties lie about the other.

Answer 6

Of all the things that you could have posed a question about, this is the one issue that bothers you the most? Are you serious? hahahahahaha

Gotta love the intelligence of Libtards.

ADDITION- No, but I sure wouldn't waste my time on minutia like this. The only reason I answered was because the question gave me a good laugh. It was the least I could do.

Answer 7

Because Gore failed to defend himself against the lie. It's just like Kerry in 2004 when he let the Swiftboat Veterans for Truth lie about him.

It drove me friggin' nuts. I don't know what those guys were thinking. When your attacked with lies about you, an immediate response is required!

Answer 8

We don't lie about it, we don't make it up. There is video footage from when he was running for President of him claiming he "took the time to invent the internet." If you actually were that big a fan, you would have been watching the election process during that time period and would ahve seen and heard it for yourself as well. Next time you ask a political question, why don't you try asking about something you have more information about to form a more intelligent question. Feel free to look up video archives from all the main news broadcasting companies to see/hear it for yourself.

Answer 9

I don't look at it as a lie. Just a poke at the joker. Snopes said "clumsy and selfserving" ,I will agree with that.

Answer 10

What are you talking about?? -Al himself told us he invented the Internet. At the time I did not realize he was just telling us a little white lie that might help him get more votes!!!

Oh, by the way I ALMOST-shook the hand of JFK. He just turned the other way at the last minute.

Answer 11

Wow some of you guys ARE ****** IDIOTS! Like Brick do you live in a box? clearly on snopes it says that he never said that. Snopes never lies, so go off and be stupid somewhere else.
