Did some Republican idiot really say that McCain is responsible for the creation of the blackberry?

There isn't 2 seconds of coverage on this on Fox, but MSNBC mentions it every ten minutes.

WTF?

that said Al Gore invented the internet? Oh wait that idiot was Al Gore himself. lol

I am proud of you that you listen to both Fox and MSNBC. Not that I am a fan of either, but at least the two put together sort of balance each other out.

I used to watch CNBC virtually all day when I was trading for a living, but I would change of the TVs to either FOX or CNN  every once in a while to get a different POV. I actually used to watch Fox a lot more until the Terry Schiavo fiasco, after that I really couldn't stomach to much more Fox news.

It's a joke putting Al Gore down. JM was on a committee that authorized something to d with the technology.

I for one, am shocked. lol

what he said was the the support he gave helped the internet along.

But of course you right wing idiots will never understand the real quotes, only the stuff you want to believe....

Create? . . . Invent? Oh yea. Big difference.

"During my service in the United States Congress, I took the initiative in creating the Internet."

Mis-spoke? Yup. Did he say it? Yup.

The joke, making fun of Al Gore?

Or the BULLSHIT from PMSNBC and Keith Blubberman?

Fox recognized it was a joke.

PMSNBC and Blubberman recognized it was a joke as well, but also realized that they could LIE about it and further their cause. Now that's the biggest BULLSHIT in the story.

It said that Gore's statement is much the same as Eisenhower's claim that he created the interstate highway system.   The President certainly was not out digging ditches, but his leadership helped to make it a reality.

Of course you will never understand this because you look at the world through your filter glasses.

His words speak for themselves. I don't need a translator to tell me what he said.

His exact words were.

"During my service in the United States Congress, I took the initiative in creating the Internet."

Those words are pretty fucking plain to me. Al Gore was, and is full of himself.

While Eisnehower DID create our interstate system, actually Hitler's Germany invented it.

I will probably never understand how partisans (as yourself) can so willingly distort history to meet their needs.
