Gore didn't lie about the internet--don't you guys get tired of repeating that?
It's good to keep some honest perspective here.
"Yasser Arafat signed numerous peace treaties as he butchered men women and children"
http://www.ifamericansknew.org/
"129 Israeli children have been killed by Palestinians and 1,523 Palestinian children have been killed by Israelis since September 29, 2000"
There are lots of complaints about Arafat, but he walked a pretty delicate line. That is a dangerous part of the world, and leaders have been pretty regularly assassinated, including both Sadat and Begin - signers of the Camp David Accord.
"Al Gore who serially lied about inventing the internet"
James "While I served in congress.....I took the initiative to creating the internet.." - Al Gore
There's a difference between "inventing" and "creating".
What happened was that DARPANET was made public, "creating" the internet.
If Al Gore was in part responsible for that, then yes, he is partially responsible for creating, not inventing, the internet.
" I also remember him (Obama) promising to lower the seas. "
My, my, you really do have a creative memory.
You may have missed your calling.
I think it is awfully hard to beat, "If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor."
But then again, "I never had sex with that woman, Monica Lewinsky." That was a pretty big whopper.
Come to think of it, "The Earth has a fever." That has to take the cake. Especially in light of all the cold spells we have had.
Anything having to do with peace and Arafat had to be a big lie.
So if the Nobel prize is really a liar's club award, as it looks, maybe we will see Trevor up there next. He has told more whoppers and it is obvious that he has convinced enough people with his lies that he is the King of the active participants in the Global Warming section.
That is a good question and is very hard to answer. I think Al Gore's lying has hurt more people globally, though.

As you well know, most skeptics (scientists - not Deniers) accept AGW.

James –
Great example of being both stupid and a liar.
According to Bob Kahn and Vinton Cerf (who invented TCP and IP):
“Last year the Vice President made a straightforward statement on his role.
He said: "During my service in the United States Congress I took the
initiative in creating the Internet." We don't think, as some people have
argued, that Gore intended to claim he "invented" the Internet. Moreover,
there is no question in our minds that while serving as Senator, Gore's
initiatives had a significant and beneficial effect on the still-evolving
Internet. The fact of the matter is that Gore was talking about and
promoting the Internet long before most people were listening. We feel it
is timely to offer our perspective.”

>>Update : Oops, I rely too much on editing. I meant are, not is. Clinton hasn't tried to change the meaning of are yet.<<
Clinton did not redefine "is" - his conservative accusers were just too stupid to know what the meaning of "is" is.
if you can prove Gore said or wrote anything about inventing the Internet, I'll continue reading.
I'm more inclined to think you are the one lying.
EDIT JAMES: "initiative to creating the internet" is not inventing the internet. He supported funding to APARNET, part of DARPA.
Gore was brought into it by me as far as thinking about our environment, but I only gave him half of an equasion and later sprung the rest on him after he got the public to listen. Obama only went with rumors and did NOT have anything to do with Global Warming, infact he ignored it because he did'nt believe in Global Warming, but when my Global Teams and I shown results, then this IDIOT claimed it was him, but this muslim did'nt have anything to do with Global Warming. He's NOT SMART ENOUGH. NO GOVERNMENTS, MILTARIES or LEADERS had anything to do with Global Warming or our environment. THESE ARE FACTS. GLOBAL civilian COMMAND.
The deniers repeat lies they get from the moronic professional deniers. even once they are made aware of the lies, they still post thm, so that makes them liers and that is mostly what they post here. As to skeptics who refuse to accept the reality of AGW, they are nothing more than deniers
Yasser Arafat signed numerous peace treaties as he butchered men women and children as he amassed a fortune
Then there is Al Gore who serially lied about inventing the internet to his various scandals and was vice president to the someone who tried to change the meaning of the word "is", and
then we have the current serial liar who promised you would be able to keep your plan and keep your doctor. I also remember him promising to lower the seas.
Does a Nobel Prize really mean that much?
Sadly it may mean nothing more than the recipient was a darling of the wacko left.
