You're right but they're still funny. What about Gore? He really intended to say he invented the internet, didn't he? What was the story behind that? I was to young to pay attention to that incident when it happened.

"What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars thru the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming?
And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air,"

The one about the creating the internet...Al Gore never actually said that. He said he took initiative while in Congress to promote the creation of the internet. I wrote about this in a different post about how Al Gore was considered to be a liar by most Americans because of things he never said but Bush was never called on the numerous lies he told.

Well, I find CI's staunch pro-Americanism to be pushing the envelope into anti-Elsewherism.

I think some of the quotes are funny.

Pretty simple, eh, old buddy, old pal?
