		<description>Badger Says: 
&quot;As this fairy tale has it, the hero who survived the Hanoi Hilton has stood up as rebelliously in Washington as he did to his Vietnamese captors.&quot;

Well at least there is some truth in this line, Badger. He caved in to his captors and aided their propaganda efforts with the same level of rebelliouness that he has caved in to K Street lobbyists and has definitely aided Bush&#039;s propaganda efforts as well!</description>

The terrorists have laptops in their hideouts. Can America afford to have a leader who is just learning how to use one?&lt;/em&gt;

Well, when McStain follow bin Laden to the gates of hell, and finds out he&#039;s going to stay there, too, perhaps they can share a laptop and bin Laden can teach Johnny solitaire.

Honest Abe was a techie. Yep, it&#039;s true. President Lincoln pushed hard for the spread of telegraph lines across the country and used the new medium to make communications with his generals during the Civil War swift and specific. Sometimes he even slept on the couch in the telegraph office when he was monitoring battlefield conditions. In his book &quot;Mr. Lincoln&#039;s T-Mails,&quot; author Tom Wheeler brings the language of Silicon Valley to Gettysburg. &quot;Lincoln&#039;s early-adopter instincts,&quot; he writes, &quot;coupled with his being unburdened by the old dogmas, allowed him to outperform his generals in the ability to see change and harness it to his purpose.&quot;</description>

		<description>And &quot;Dancing Queen&quot; is my favorite song my friends because I still have it on 8 Track and I&#039;ve never figured out how to make those little tapes that go back and forth work.  What?  There something newer than that?  Well anyway all my advancements in technology came to a halt when I crashed that 5th plane and decided I was never going to touch any controls again.  -

This is so pathetic. Alan Keys tried to smear Barack Obama with the same bullshit back in 2004 Senatorial race, and he made a laughing stock out of himself.

I hope McCain takes the advice of the religious fanatic Republican base and tries the same stupid crap.</description>

		<description>In 1982 when computers had to be SOLD to even the most daring individuals this older couple in their 70&#039;s bored with being retired came into the computer store I worked in.

I sold them a 1200 buad modem and the Source and the came back a couple of months later and thanked me for helping them get online.  This was back when communications was relatively archaic.  These people were brilliant compared to grampy mcsame.

Sheesh, somebody put this guy in a rest home where he belongs.</description>

		<description>28.  Gimme a Break Says: 
How was this guy able to fly a freeking jet?

Very poorly.  (rim shot)

I don&#039;t have the exact stats in front of me, but I believe something like he crashed 4 and almost destroyed an aircraft carrier (his own).  Maybe his lack of technology explains it ?</description>

		<description>It&#039;s one thing when a guy differs from me politically.  It&#039;s quite another when I start wondering what woman would ever want to be married to him.

This guy has gone beyond just being an enemy of women in the Senate.  Apparently he has proved that the stereotyped backward guy who only believes that women are good for &quot;cooking, cleaning, and f**king&quot; really exists (please notice that an interest in technology is not on that list, and is therefore annoying).  Additionally, he believes it&#039;s perfectly all right to call his wife insulting and demeaning names in front of others, cheat on his wife, and divorce his wife when she&#039;s no longer suitable to be arm candy.

		<description>Guido the Loving OBGYN Says: 

Yeah. But you know what? Obama should be blowing McCain out of the water right now in polling and we should not have to be discussing stoopid topics like this.

I think Frank Rich gives a good reason for the &quot;Close Polls&quot;, although by REGION..Obama is doing much Better.  He&#039;s just running way  behind in the South..(Surprised?)

From ...The Candidate We Still Don’t Know 

As this fairy tale has it, the hero who survived the Hanoi Hilton has stood up as rebelliously in Washington as he did to his Vietnamese captors. He strenuously opposed the execution of the Iraq war; he slammed the president’s response to Katrina; he fought the “agents of intolerance” of the religious right; he crusaded against the G.O.P. House leader Tom DeLay, the criminal lobbyist Jack Abramoff and their coterie of influence-peddlers.

With the exception of McCain’s imprisonment in Vietnam, every aspect of this profile in courage is inaccurate or defunct.</description>

		<description>What happened to good goofy version 4,triple prick?
Show some facts before you post this crap.
HOw many infants did mcsames bombs kill, triple prick?
Repeating right wing smears doesn&#039;t make it here.
Of course, you don&#039;t have the ability to think for yourself.

		<description>Gimme a Break Says: &quot;How was this guy able to fly a freeking jet?&quot;

He tried real hard because his fellow pilots told him that if he downed five planes he would be an ace.  After five planes and almost one carrier they finally told him they were supposed to be enemy planes not ours but they still called him ace--they just spelled it differently.</description>
