I know. But if you truthfully say that, as a Senator, you "took the initiative in creating the Internet," it makes you sound like a kook. Or, at least, it allows people to tar you with it, when in fact politicians on both sides of the aisle cannot open their mouths without complimenting themselves under the guise of their "record." It's a byproduct of our perpetual campaign system. Which is I guess better than dictator-for-life, but not by much.
