--Al Gore once claimed that he invented the internet
   [write-up what Ann Coulter said about this in her book Slander: Liberal lies about the American Right]
   [exhibit what George W. Bush said about this during the 1st debate]
   [exhibit John Leo's crazy "Al Gore, father of the internet" statement in that editorial]
   [exhibit Richard Reeve's crazy statement about this]
   [exhibit Richard Gebhart's crazy claim about this]
--Al Gore has lied by claiming that he spent his youth on a farm
  [exhibit Cal Thomas's wording that claims Gore lied this way]
     [compare Thomas's claim to the claim of the authors of the book
The Prince of Tennessee]
--Al Gore claimed to have brought Love Canal to the attention of the American people.
   [quote Ann Coulter's
Slander] [Gore actually merely claimed that he brought Love Canal to the attention of a committee he was leading.]
--Al Gore has sought to ban the automobile (rather than the internal combustion engine)
   [find the George Will quote I recall that I saw]
--Al Gore said (in Earth In The Balance) that Lindzen "retracted his views" about global warming
    [I recall that this was claimed in Eco-Scam, by Ronald Bailey]
--Al Gore said (in Earth In The Balance) that Lindzen has said that global warming claims have no scientific basis. [see wording in the chapter written by Lindzen in
Environmental Gore]
--Al Gore said that HIV would increase as a result of global warming [I recall that I saw this claim in
Eco-Scam]
--Al Gore said (in Earth in the Balance) that western-nation's treatment of the environment can be traced to Hilter and Stalin [reproduce the wording of the claim in
Telling the Truth]
   [a lie by Lynn Cheney, in her book
Telling the Truth]
--Al Gore said in Earth In The Balance that people who disagree with him are mentally ill
--Al Gore lied when he claimed that he spent five months in Vietnam as a reporter for US forces there.
    It appears to me that Al Gore is the most lied-about person in the past 50 years or so.  That is, I believe that the total number of times that individual human beings somewhere on planet earth have heard a lie about Al Gore is greater for Al Gore than it is for any other person in all of the past 50 years.
