Independent Group Running TV Ad in Colorado Accusing Obama of Attacking McCain's War Wounds

This explains a lot! Because of not being able to use the internet, McCain is cut off from hundreds of independent sources that would contradict his lobbyists who write legislation for him. I presume writing hurts too.

For most of this two year campaign, the TV news spent prime-time spewing gossip-of-the-week while spending 5 minutes/day on the candidate's real record and real issues. American democracy would be dead if not for the internet.

I know quadriplegics that can send an email with a stick in their month. I have seen McCain; he has more physical ability than a quadriplegic. What about voice recognition software? Can he point?

Breaking News
McCain says will suspend campaign to return to Washington Thursday to help with bailout negotiations, asks that Friday debate with Obama be postponed so bailout negotiations can continue 2:51pm EDT"

This all happened after McCain's last remaining economic adviser, Sarah Palin, told Katie Couric that we're headed towards a Great Depression.

My guess is that McCain will rent a helicopter and fly over Wall Street to survey the damage, then rescue any CEOs who may be stranded on roof tops.

Details at 11!

Another POW CARD SMOKE SCREEN to change the subject and protect McKeating-5 from his disastrous handling of the economic situation?

It won't work.

Let's all talk about McCain's handling of the last big Wall Street economic meltdown instead. That was the Savings and Loan disaster/bailout of the late 1980's.

I know all you "kids for McCain" that post here can't remember, so let me refresh your memories.

McCain was the dirtiest of a group of 5 Senators in the S&L scandal and the only one that took actual money and favors for trying to cover-up and stop the investigation of one of the BIGGEST Wall Street crooks in history, Charles Keating!

Go Google the "Keating Five" and get the sorted details for yourselves!

This is the guy you Republicans want to trust to fix the latest corruption in Washington??

What a pathetic joke!!!!

I see Jake is an apologist. When my buddy who has Cerebal Palsy and is confined to a wheelchair heard McCains and Jake's desperate and despicable reason why McCain cannot use a computer, he was livid. He struggles through his disability every day and is able to manage running a computer and sending emails and surfing the net. This is pathetic. Now I know why McCain is suspending his campaign to go bail out his rich CEO buddies. He has lost this election.

This came up a few months ago and not once did the Republicans bring up McCain's war wounds. A lot of People McCain's age don't use e-mail or know computers there is no shame in that. But what is shameful is doing a misleading ad about Obama on McCain's lack of knowledge on computers. Now what we are seeing is the media responding the Republican spin instead of helping the voters with the issues. Which has more importance the spin or the issues?

This is stupid. Disabled people use computers all the time. It is called SPEECH RECOGNITION.

What a low blow to disabled people to imply that they can't use a computer.

McCain is simply not comfortable using a computer because he wasn't taught to use one and adapt it for himself when they came out. It is a fact.

You know like, women that don't make as much as men? He just needs more training.

If can use the phone, drive a car, handle a knife and fork, you can manuver a computer. Perhaps John is so out of touch he has not heard of all the varieties of laptops that are avaiable. McCain/Palin looks more pathetic everyday.

What pointed and hateful nonsense you hear here, like

"A pot smoking, cocaine snorting, Marxist community organizer in a very dangerous world wants to be president.
Harvard Sigma cum laude --howboutu
with convicted felon Tony Rezko-who helped him buy his home at a discounted rate
buy adjacent lot besides his ONLY house

Friends with unrepentant terrorists Bill Ayres and Bernadette Dorhn.
8 years old during that time, gee

Serving on the CAC and the Woods Foundation- more raising money and community agitating, straight from The Rules for Radicals book by Saul Alinsky.

Agitating like MLK, to help the lesser amoung us, do you hate Jesus too?

These are the real issues."
If you could care less about real issues

These are not real issues people they are Rovian talking points made in ignorance to produce fear in ignorance.

If these are your only reasons not to vote for Obama, you really should register with a community college, and learn about these things, that is if you think these are real issues.

We are going through a financial crisis the only applicable issue here is deregulation and the Keating Five, considering that is the only real issue we have to compare this to.

Get a life, this ain't fantasy football

No, I mean taking the bulls by the horn and getting this economic issued settled instead of campaigning.

"McCain out manuevers Obama again."

You mean an independent group right?

I mean this guy couldn't possibly be connected to the McCain campaign...right?

David H writes, "So, what is Obama up to?"
==============================

The same as always. Hoping Americans would use the brain the good Lord gave them. I've seen disabled men and women use computers. I've seen them do so professionally. I've even witness individuals WITHOUT arms using computers.

John McCain is using his "injuries" as a crutch to hide the fact that he is really is out of step not only with America but the WORLD.

Right now he's trying to DELAY the debates because of the bailout conversations being held. How convenient. He doesn't WANT to field questions because he KNOWS he's going to get hammered considering he is the champion of deregulation.

McCain out manuevers Obama again.

Obama has been peddling the notion for a long time that McCain is out of touch because he does not use a computer. He keeps pushing this idea long after it was pointed out in the press that McCain's injuries make it difficult for him to use the computer.

So, what is Obama up to? Does he figure people do not know of McCain's injuries? Unlikely. What he is probably doing is just what the ad said, criticizing McCain for having war injuries -- thus emphasizing McCain's supposed disabilities.

Pretty low down if you ask me; but hey, this is Obama we are talking about. He is the man who turned Bill Clinton into a racist. There is no place too low for Obama to go.

It is hard to believe people want this thoroughly dishonorable man to be president.

It's an effective ad. Americans like McCain and want to see him treated with respect.

"MACK, You need to get a life soon.
LOVE THE USA, vote Obama."

I love America. Based on comments made by his wife and his associates I really question whether Barry loves America. It also makes me quesiton his motivations for wanting to be President. Does he want to use the position of power to spread the hate and lies that he learned from Wright and Ayers?
