Everyone knows this.

My question is, what exactly did he do to be able to make this claim? and how valid are the claims included in his point of view?

I always knew he was referring to the money aspect and not the wiring.

I think he deserves more credit for helping the Chicoms insert a possible Trojan Horse into security computers;

Security Dynamics was able to import computer security hardware manufactured in China. SDI secured Hong Kong electronics maker RJP Industries to produce electronic computer security cards for sale in America. The Chinese manufactured cards are sold to major defense contractors, medical institutions and the U.S. government.

"I would not be surprised to find a back door put in by the Chinese government," stated Mimms. "Go to Wal-Mart and you'll find hundreds of commercial electronics products made by Chinese government factories. In fact, I would not be surprised to find a back door put in by an independent [rogue or criminal] operation."
Al Gore is an asshole.

I bet the internet has made computer use go up at least 10000%. I wonder how many carbon offsets the Goracle will need to buy to correct that.

Whenever I hear this statement I laugh immediately, I knew a teacher who seriously believed that Al Gore has created what the Internet was today. (eBay, etc.) I almost yelled "BULLSHIT", but I didn't want to fail the class, so I just snickered to myself, and disregarded everything she 'taught' to us afterward.

It's funny how stupid some people are.

DoD developed the concept of a non-centralised network and TCP/IP. Ol' Timmo developed WWW and the public's perception of "Internet" today.

Btw guys you can't say someone created the "internet", the "internet" doesn't actually exist, its just a massive set of Hubs that link WANs that uses set protocols and the W3C standards.
