Gore never claimed to have "invented" the Internet. What he said was: During my service in the United States Congress I took the initiative in creating the Internet.

Using the word "create" reminds me of another Gorism. "There is no controlling authority". Gore, like all other politicians, will spin it to their advantage. Most common sense thinkers realize that Gore used those words about the internet because they sounded like he was the creator - the one who hatched the idea. Like someone who invented or hatched the idea to sell pet rocks. EOM
