CNN: Computer Illiterate McCain Too Stupid to be President

On Thursday, CNN's Jeanne Moos made the case that because John McCain is not computer savvy, he's not qualified to be president. She even disgracefully quipped -- as a video of a stripper appeared on the screen! -- "At least John McCain knows the difference between a laptop and a lap dance."
Not surprisingly, she also took the time to demonstrate just how much of a techie Barack Obama is while adding a dash of Bush-bash.
MOOS: While Cindy McCain has been spotted scrolling her BlackBerry, John McCain tends to be handed a BlackBerry to talk on. Barack Obama, on the other hand, is one of those guys so intent on reading his BlackBerry that he could run into something.
He is a BlackBerry fiend says his spokesperson. Has a laptop on the road and sometimes uses it to talk to his daughters and surfs the Web when he is in need of important information such as sports scores.

Yup. Tech savvy Obamessiah like to use a laptop, which is a nice target for every computer hacker on the planet to try to get into.

Yup.
Here we go with the (ho-hum) every-four-years "The Republican Candidate Is Stupid" ritual in the MSM.

Any President would be crazy to use e-mail. It would be the constant target of subpoenas, FOIA requests, leakers and hackers.

John McCain can fly a combat jet.
Okay, okay, he has had some difficulty with the task -- but I bet he handles that technology a little better than Obama.

Hmmm... does Pelosi et al. realize if they bring back the Fairness Doctrine, CNN would have to trot out Mark Levin to provide counterpoint.
I’d pay to see the Great One reduce this ditz to hamburger.

I almost got runned over by a SUV while I was checking my email. Head down, walked into the street, looked up and there it was.

Both candidates are unqualified to be POTUS. It is embarrassing that two such flawed candidates are running. Both are willing to sell out this country. McCain even had a secret meeting with LaRaza.

Until now, I thought McCain was running for President and Commander-in-Chief — turns out the position is Computer-geek-in-Chief. Shows what I know about U.S. politics.

Let them go this route... they sink ever deeper in the cesspool. The slow-thinking independents despise this type of attack.

Sorry to say, but this does make McCain seem out of touch with reality.
On the other hand, it’s a stretch to say Obama is in touch just because he’s always on his Blackberry, or laptop.
If you ask me, they’re both out of touch, and cnn is just trying to make Obama seem cool and hip, and McCain old and creepy.

I was using the term 'computer illiterate' earlier today to describe my sister-in-law.
I'm trying real hard not to throw in a Mac joke right now. I won't though, since I was only recently accepted for membership in the Mac Ping Club :>)

The Dems play the "[fill in the blank] is too stupid to be President" card in every general election; and it never works. Reagan probably got it the worst, and he won 43 states in '80 and 49 states in '84.

Hey Barry....maybe McCain’s POW disability to move his arms prevents him typing on the computer for period of time! You don’t need to be a wis to use the internet....
If I had problems due to limited mobility I would get my staff go online....
Pretty pathetic....

But while I agree that McCain is more qualified than Obama to be President -- although still not THAT qualified given that he's never held any type of executive position -- I have to say that anyone who cannot use a computer in this day and age is really out of it.
Both my 85-year-old mother and my 78-year-old mother-in-law can at least use Word, Google and e-mail. I gotta wonder about someone who can't even do that, if that is in fact the case with John McCain.
