OMG!!!!

As soon as I read this I flashed back to a scene from Ruthless People

Lt. Bender: GIVE THE BAG TO BOZO, DROP THE GUN, AND PUT YOUR HANDS IN THE AIR.
Earl Mott: Who said that?
Lt. Walters: This could very well be the stupidest person on the face of the earth.
Lt. Bender: IT'S THE POLICE DEPARTMENT.
Earl Mott: Really?
Lt. Bender: NO! WE'RE THE NATIONAL RIFLE ASSOCIATION!

Barry Hussein's Campaign may go down as the stupidest ever.

Great post, btw.

Remember how the Clintonistas broke all the “W” keys off the keyboards of the White House computers, or at least the transition office computers or something, upon being ousted in 2001?

The point is not whether or not the technology exists to allow the handicapped to use a computer, drive a car, or do any number of things. The point is that the ad serves to illuminate the state of the Obama campaign. They are falling apart at the seams so much so that they are either purposely disregarding all civility or are just being sloppy.

Let's not forget that in politics, all perception is reality and the perception once again is that the Obama campaign has offended a large segment of the population.

Perhaps its just schadenfraude (sp) on my point but I sorta enjoy watching the self-righteous SOB squirm.

Far be it from either B.H. Obama or David Axelrod to overplay a weak hand.

LOL

I remember that - it burned me up that Bush did not make an issue of that vandalism.

In a similar vein I guess it’s an outrage that the blind governor of New York David Patterson doesn’t know how to drive a car. After all, transportation issues are pretty important. How dare he serve as governor while being ignorant of what it’s like to navigate New York’s highways.


That said it all! Thanks for posting this...

To say that John McCain doesn't know how to use a computer or email due to war injuries is just silly.

You are kidding, aren't you. Do you not see the strain on his face? For how many seconds at a time have you ever seen him reach his hands out any further than this?

You're being silly. Look at the picture you posted..the man is not comfortable...the raised shoulder is a favoring of pain. I noticed it months ago and thought it was just old age stiffening but there's a track record going back years of him complaining about it.

Furthermore, I'm an IT director for a 500 person company and have been exposed to a surprising number of people who seem perfectly normal in all respects but are in pain after typing 10 minutes. Typing is very unnatural so if you have any chronic shoulder, arm, wrist or finger problems, you can experience pain almost immediately at a computer.

That being said, I still wish McCain was a conservative.

The ad they run should include the Boston Globe quote and end with Sarah saying "I'm Sarah Palin and I approve this message."

I'd prefer:

"John McCain recognizes that Barak Obama, who has not sustained such injuries in service to his country, can probably handle a keyboard better than he can, and should consider a career in data entry."

Anyone else find it ironic that Obama is losing this election because his gaffes and miscues are instantly sent around the globe on the very technology he attempts to mock McCain about.
