Are people still making that tired old joke/slander?

Al Gore never claimed to have developed the Internet.  He claimed
to have had a part in the deployment of the Internet (I won't speak
for the exact wording) - which if you look at the record, is quite true.

Yes, I know it's just a joke.  It's just that it plays into the
character assassination typical of right-wing groups.
