I guess the confusion comes from the fact that left-leaning
persons can't comprehend "initiative".

But the real question is what, if anything, did Gore actually do to
create the modern Internet? According to Vincent Cerf, a senior
vice president with MCI Worldcom who's been called the Father of
the Internet, "The Internet would not be where it is in the United
States without the strong support given to it and related research
areas by the Vice President in his current role and in his earlier
role as Senator."


The inventor of the Mosaic Browser, Marc Andreesen, credits Gore
with making his work possible. He received a federal grant through
Gore's High Performance Computing Act. The University of
Pennsylvania's Dave Ferber says that without Gore the Internet
"would not be where it is today."


Joseph E. Traub, a computer science professor at Columbia
University, claims that Gore "was perhaps the first political
leader to grasp the importance of networking the country. Could we
perhaps see an end to cheap shots from politicians and pundits
about inventing the Internet?"

THAT'S initiative.


Sean will not respond to the specifics you've provided above. He
can't.

Anybody can cut-and-paste quotes from a single website.
And that's all it took to prove you dead wrong.
Now, where IS that quote that you and Rush and Hannity hold so dear??

Show where I cited that quote. I'm the one - the ONLY one - here who
posted the ACTUAL quote.


Who's quoted opinions above do you disagree with?

Third graders know the correct word is "whose".

Childish little snips meant to throw someone off, because you know
you've got

Vincent Cerf, a senior vice president with MCI Worldcom?
Joseph E. Traub, a computer science professor at Columbia University?
The inventor of the Mosaic Browser, Marc Andreesen?

Dr. Lindzen at MIT.

And why?
