McCain invented the Blackberry!

I'm pretty sure he can't use a keyboard due to injuries he suffered as a POW. Could be wrong though.

please tell me this is false.

But he was a prisoner of war. That overrides everything.

Goddamnit Walter, you fucking asshole! You make everything a fucking travesty! What about that shit about Vietnam? What the fuck does Vietnam have to do with anything? What the fuck were you talking about?! You're a fuck, Walter!

My thoughts exactly. What does being a prisoner of war have to do with anything. Especially running a country.

Country First?

That is what the McCain camp's actual excuse has been - he was tortured in Vietnam which makes it nearly impossible for him to type. link[/quote]

I'm inclined to believe that actually. His arms are severely fucked up due to what they did to him. Have you seen him use his arms when he talks? He tries to be energetic with his arm motions, but he seems to have a very limited range of motion with his arms, and the way they hang when at rest further signifies that. I wouldn't doubt if his finger dexterity is limited as they briefly mention in that article.[/quote]

what does the fact he can not/does nto use a computer matter? there are so many other things to nail McCain on then if he uses a damn computer.

this is not my post but was meant to be quote from an earlier post

this was also a quote from an earlier post . (the above)

I agree that not using a computer (or being a POW) has no bearing on a persons ability to run this country. I was pointing out that not having use of his arms wasnot a reason to not use a computer.

Being from Arizona I know too well that McCain should be "nailed" on many other things.

This is a computer forum. Anyone who doesn't know how to use a computer is a moron until proven otherwise.

I'm surprised that McCain hasn't trademarked the phrase "My Friends". I'm equally puzzled that Giuliani hasn't trademarked "September 11" or "9-11"

Well, actually Gore did try to imply that he was a forefather of the world wide web... I saw the video. I've met a few democrats who wholeheartedly believed it too.

Yea I don't think they had the Internet in POW camps. I could be wrong though.

same with the fact that McCain does not use a computer. WHo fucking cares?

There's a direct quote from his speech here:

http://www.snopes.com/quotes/internet.asp

There's audio of it too because I seem to remember it being used in a campaign advertisement. He clearly says "I took the initiative in creating the Internet".

He doesn't say he invented it, but I don't really see how claiming to invent something is any different than saying you created it. It's like me saying I invented the lightbulb versus I created the lightbulb - to most people it's the same thing.
