From your own source Al Gores Quote "I took the initiative in creating the internet" Snopes may say the rumor about him claiming this is wrong but that is word for word right out of the quote you posted. Maybe read what you are posting next time. As for the other claim well I was wrong $30000 paid for utilities in 2006 that is only $2500 a month. Boy what a energy miser.

Dаmи! You've got some of the best selective reading skills I have ever seen!
Very impressive dude.

I was going to copy and paste the whole quote but it would not allow me to and I am too lazy to flip back and forth to retyp the whole thing. But the following sentence stated that he also had a lot of other initiatives. Their was no clarifying his statement so it was not taken out of context. Hey I admit when I am wrong I admitted Al Gores utilities were only $2500 didn't I.

Rrrright! The part about Vint Cerf supporting him is just meaningless, eh? Tell you what, since you are so knowledgable about this topic, how about you go and add your two cents to the wikipedia page for it and clear it all up for the rest of us?

After all, wikipedia is the encyclopedia that anyone can edit. Your insight is clearly needed.

When you start paying a 20% premium for renewable energy then you might have some standing.

Well I do not have the millions of dollars Al Gore has that his family made farming Tobacco to pay for renewable resources, so what I guess conservation does not count? I personally keep my AC setting no lower than 80 degrees here in Texas. Wikipedia is a joke as Stephen Colbert clearly showed. As for Vint Cerf supporting him I have to confess my ignorance here never heard of it. It wouldn't be some Democratic or Liberal organization would it. You can find groups out there to support anyone if you look for them and their support does not mean anything barring their own altruistic nature being shown.

Excuse me, I am going to go pee... in the toilet... with nobody watching.

C'mon people,
Can we agree not to "Bush bash". He is probably the worst president of our collective lifetimes and I don't think anyone in here can defend the out and out travesty he is as a leader. Comparing Bush to Gore is like comparing Steven J. Hawking to Corky from "Life Goes On".
Even that media darling rush Limbaugh claimed to" "feel liberated" by Democratic victories in the House and Senate on November 7 because he is "no longer going to have to carry the water for people who I don't think deserve having their water carried." Limbaugh added that the Republican Congress has produced "some of this legislation coming out of there that I have just cringed at, and it has been difficult coming in here, trying to make the case for it when the people who are supposedly in favor of it can't even make the case themselves -- and to have to come in here and try to do their jobs."
Also Gore won the popular vote, More people in this country wanted him as commander and chief, Does anyone think we would be in Iraq right now if Gore was elected? There would be a lot more american kids walking on their own legs rather than titanium stilts.

And there we have it folks. Vint Cerf is a political organization, well said, well said. You are at the top of your game with your criticism. I don't know what I was thinking trying to cite a partisan political group to show that maybe, just possibly, there was a little bit more to the story than was dreamt of in your philosophy.

Here's a joke for yah: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vint_Cerf

DAAAHHMM!! What did I start here?

I just thought it was a funny enough email to share. I didn't mean to get Bush castrated. LOL

Did you once again fail to read the quote you posted like the one where Al Gore stated he took the initiative to create the internet? I vclearly admitted I had no idea who or what Vint Cerf was. So being able to point out the fact that I had no idea was not quite as clever as you seem to think. However your Wikipedia link was very helpful. The man was born and lived in New Haven CT. Went to HS in Van NUys CA, and College in Stanford. Now I was wrong assuming he was an orginization but his schooling and upbring clearly show the man has lived and learned in Ultra Liberal areas, hell I am surprised he didn't go to Berkley for a year or to.
