Obama ad: McCain's out of touch

Source: CNN

A new Obama ad paints McCain as out of touch and unable to implement change.

My verdict: While McCain goes for the outright false and negative ads, Obama goes for the humorous and truthful ads.

McCain still lives in the 60's. America cannot elect this man as President

can he use a telephone or handphone???

You obviously are dumb. Palin stated that she supports Georgia joining NATO. And she stated that if Russia invaded Georgia again then she would declare war on Russia. Sweet, nuclear war sounds like FUN doesn't it. Fucking idiots.

American needs a President, not a sports fan.

Catttt, I have seen disabled people who paint by holding a brush with their teeth. People with no arms that write with their feet.

If McCain cannot use a computer, it is by choice not disability. Don't insult the real disabled people who do remarkable things everyday and contribute to our society. Please.

Awesome job, Odumba, make fun of disabled people and war veterans.

You are such an empty suited pathologically lieing fraud.

from the Boston Globe:

Earlier, in a March 2006 interview with Fortune magazine, McCain said his work style didn't require computer usage. But he did not cite his injuries.

"I'm a Neanderthal - I don't even type. I do have rudimentary capabilities to call up some websites, like the New York Times online, that sort of stuff. No laptop. No PalmPilot. I prefer my schedule on notecards, which I keep in my jacket pocket."

I mean Nato, Listen to the ENTIRE clip about Russia then you may understand.

[Cattttt]

Senator McCain's nightly ritual is to read his email together with his wife, Cindy. The injuries he incurred as a Vietnam POW make it painful for McCain to type. Instead, he dictates responses that his wife types on a laptop. So go ahead and make fun of how it's hard, because of his POW injuries, for McCain to do this himself.

[agustgus11]

If your point with that quote was that his war injuries render him incapable of knowing how to use a computer or send e-mail, it doesn't hold water. Lots of injured and disabled people use computer via adaptive devices. He's just old and behind the fucking times, as this hilarious ad points out. Way to go Obama!

Boston Globe profile on McCain by Mary Leonard. 3 4, 2000.

"McCain gets emotional at the mention of military families needing food stamps or veterans lacking health care. The outrage comes from inside: McCain's severe war injuries prevent him from combing his hair, typing on a keyboard, or tying his shoes. Friends marvel at McCain's encyclopedic knowledge of sports. He's an avid fan -- Ted Williams is his hero -- but he can't raise his arm above his shoulder to throw a baseball."

That's the way they roll. They throw a rock, and when someone throws back, they yell, "MOM, HE'S THROWING ROCKS AT ME!". The thrust of this message is that we're living in a very different world, that requires innovative thinking and an ability to respond in new ways than what the repubs have been doing over the last 7 years. We have a world that's being polluted at an alarming rate, and the repubs are yelling, "Drill, drill, drill!"

How's that change?
