oops (warning - political commentary - read at your own peril)

I rarely use this blog to make political comments, mostly because I think all politicians are scum.

However, on occasion, a politician does something so heinous I have to point it out.

Barak Obama has put out a campaign ad mocking John McCain for being computer illiterate. Now, aside from being a cheap and negative shot by someone who supposedly was above that kind of thing, it was also stupid.

The reason McCain is not Mr. Computer is because he can't be! Why? Due to the severe wounds from torture he incurred as a POW! According to a Boston Globe newspaper article from 2000 :

McCain's severe war injuries prevent him from combing his hair, typing on a keyboard, or tying his shoes.


Nice going Obama campaign. Yeah, you are all about the politics of change. Go on, pull the other one.
