OK, in the interest of being non partisan (hold the chuckle) I bring you this article:
Let me tell you what that article says.
There’s a new Obama ad called “1982″ which basically claims that McCain is computer illiterate because he can’t use a computer, nor does he know how to send email. The ad also makes other points about McCain.
At first, I thought, that not being able to send an email and not knowing how to use a computer was just a sign of how far removed from reality McCain is, but then I came across that “The Corner” article, and a couple of others.
Turns out, McCain can’t send an email because he can’t type.
He can’t type, because of his war injuries. Since he can’t type, he doesn’t email, so why bother to learn how to do it. He’s got people that can do that for him anyway, right? I feel like the Obamians could’ve done a little bit more research, or perhaps not been as deceiving in their claims about what it means that McCain can’t use a computer.
The people at “The Corner” bring up an interesting point about this. Obama’s campaign seems to imply that since McCain can’t use a computer, he’s not qualified to be president. Pretty much the same way that McCain’s people argue that actually being in a war makes someone more qualified to be commander in chief.
I don’t know where this is going, but I can tell you that there is always more than meets the eye when it comes to political ads.
Here’s the ad for your amusement:
