1982 - Obama Commercial
Barack Obama Campaign ^ | 9/12/08 | Barack Obama Campaign

Posted on 09/12/2008 7:02:55 AM PDT by gridlock

1982

John McCain goes to Washington.

Things have changed in the last 26 years, But McCain hasn't.

He admits he still doesn't know how to use a computer, can't send an e-mail, still doesn't understand the economy, and favors $200 Billion in tax cuts for corporations, but almost nothing for the middle class. After one President who was out of touch, we just can't afford more of the same.

(I'm Barack Obama, and I approved this message)

"1982 - several associates of Barack Obama's close friend William Ayers are sentenced for a terrorist attack, in which they murdered two policemen.

"William Ayers says that even though members of his group set off bombs that killed three people and murdered policemen, they should have done still more violence.

"Obama says that he was just a child when his terrorist friend pulled off these attacks - but while the trial was going on Barack Obama was an adult working at a firm located less than two miles away from where the attack took place.

"Barack Obama - befriending terrorists who killed his own neighbors."

my mother in law does not use a computer neither does my mum
many people don’t or they just cannot afford to have one

be a community organiser and send e-mails is now the qualifications to be president, is that what they are saying

Off topic but when teachers tell kids to get on the Internet for homework then they seem to forget that not all kids have access .

This is where our support for corporate tax cuts can hurt us even though it’s the right thing for the economy. Of all people Obama is criticizing us for not cut for the middle class. I think we need to make it clear that not only do we want to keep the tax cuts permanent but press for more cuts.

I guess Obama has given up on the “Old Senile” voting Block in America in favor of the “Young Ignorant me first” Block... hmmm...

Obama knows how to play the ISMS....

Obama may be the most divisive politician in the history of this country.

Hey voters, you're stupid and out of touch if you can't use a computer or send e-mail!!

Those were largely ‘70’s images (disco ball, rubiks’ cube), even the Televideo dumb terminal (although the technology was roughly the same on the dumb terminals in ‘82).

It was not politically astute for McCain to state that the economy wasn’t his strong point (and in a certain sense, NO ONE “understands” the economy. Anyone who did would make Warren Buffet look like a coupon clipper.) I did find the fact the McCain admitted it to be refreshingly honest. It is tempting, as a politician, to want to feign omniscience, but these guys are only human.

“Loading player”. Now the thing’s taking too long to load. LOL. Hasn’t the OBama team heard of YouTube. I bailed on the ad. Any net savvy person knows if your content doesn’t load in 2-3 seconds, you’ve lost them. LoL.

Obama is making a big mistake with this ad. He’s insulting one of the largest voting groups in this country, and it will cost him.

He didn’t just make fun of seniors. African Americans and Hispanics also have a large contingency who do not use computers, even the young ones.

Obama isn’t the sharpest crayon in the box.

This ad is pathetic. I would love to see Luntz’ 0 to 100% audience clickers on this ad. I bet it really turns off independents.

I think a good comeback ad for McCain would be, “I already use a computer, a God given one, called a brain”.

My father doesn't use a computer or a cell phone and I know many
seniors who don't.


Although I've been out of academic science for about four years,
I knew a couple of prominent professors that didn't use e-mail or
personal computers (that's a grunt job for their techs!).

And those profs were/are members of The National Academy of Sciences.

I bet there hasn't been a computer for porn-surfing and e-mails
with naughty ladies in there for about 8 years!

Ya know, I can use a computer and send e-mail. But I can’t do some of the things John McCain will have to do as president, nor would I want to.

Obambi is a nasty woman hating Muslim who shows disrespect for his elders, that’s not a good leader.
