Former FCC Chairman Blasts Claim That McCain Invented The Blackberry: He Is ‘So Out Of Touch’
Former FCC Chairman Blasts Claim That McCain Invented The Blackberry: He Is ‘So Out Of Touch’
Speaking to reporters today, McCain campaign adviser Douglas Holtz-Eakin claimed that Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) is responsible for the “miracle” of PDAs. Waving around his Blackberry, Holtz-Eakin said:
He did this. … Telecommunications of the United States is a premier innovation in the past 15 years, comes right through the Commerce committee so you’re looking at the miracle John McCain helped create and that’s what he did.
ThinkProgress received a response today from former FCC chairman Reed Hundt, who sharply criticized Holtz-Eakin’s claim:
John McCain is so out of touch with America his economics adviser says he deserves credit for creating the Canadian company that invented the Blackberry. Message to Republicans: it’s American entrepreneurship our President is supposed to encourage.
ThinkProgress also spoke with Blair Levin, who is currently Managing Director at Stifel Nicolaus and served as Hundt’s chief of staff at the FCC. Levin pointed out that McCain actually voted against the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (OBRA ‘93) that “authorized the spectrum auctions that created the competitive wireless market that gave rise to companies like Research in Motion [the creator of Blackberry].”
This is not the first time that McCain has tried to take credit for a technological innovation he actively opposed. In a 2000 GOP presidential debate, he took credit for E-Rate, a program designed to wire schools:
We took a major step forward when we decided to wire every school and library in America to the Internet. That’s a good program.
McCain, however, opposed E-Rate in the late ’90s, concerned about the impact it might have on the telecom industry. Groups such as the American Library Association were so outraged that they encouraged their members to contact obstinate senators, including McCain. More here on McCain’s paltry record as Senate Commerce Committee chairman.

Maybe McDepends was the REAL genius behind the internets tubes!
September 16th, 2008 at 1:53 pmWe need better attacks on McCain. None of this is working. Let us hit him on his support for Free Trade.
September 16th, 2008 at 1:54 pmMy friends, I invented the newfangled transistor box I’m holding now. It allows me to stay out of touch with you in real-time.
September 16th, 2008 at 1:57 pmMcCain was one of just five senators to vote against the Telecommunications Act of 1996.
– - Five, what a coincidence, like The Keating Five.
September 16th, 2008 at 1:57 pmInsane McSame is beginning to sound like the old Soviet Union in its claims of having invented almost everything…
Actually, McSame, Phil Gramm and George Bush are the ones most responsible for the financial deregulation which gave us the absurdly high gasoline prices this summer and which gave us the mortgage meltdown. Heck of a job, Johnny…
ENRONed again…
ENRONed again: this time by oil futures contracts speculators who are unnecessarily and very profitably driving up the price of crude oil and hence retail gasoline prices.
We’re being ENRONed again. Curious as to why you are suddenly paying over four dollars a gallon for gasoline? No, it’s not due to “supply-and-demand,” no, it’s not due to “OPEC,” nor is it due to “peak oil.” It’s due to totally unregulated electronic oil futures trading in world markets. Check out the very lucid article that explains the unseen financial machinations in oil futures markets written by F. W. Engdahl on May 2, 2008, entitled, “Perhaps 60% of Today’s Oil Price is Pure Speculation.” It may be viewed at http://www.financialsense.com/editorials/2008/0502.html.
September 16th, 2008 at 2:00 pmIn a nutshell, he suggests that the Bush Administration dropped the ball in January 2006, when they allowed totally unregulated electronic trading of oil futures contracts in New York. Previously these electronic trades had been made at the London Intercontinental Exchange (ICE) Futures Market. With that decision by the Bush Administration, all of the world’s oil prices were then opened to upward pressure from speculative futures contracts. In essence, oil futures contracts made by speculators, banks, hedge funds and pension funds all competed with real demand on the spot markets and had the effect of driving up both wholesale oil prices and retail gasoline prices. Speculators have made billions of dollars on their trading of oil futures contracts. All of their profits come right out of our pockets.
Even with a stable oil supply, there is a slow worldwide increase in demand for oil, which creates a long-term upward pressure on oil prices. However, with the relentless saber-rattling and war-mongering by Bush and Cheney in the last several years, and the more recent war talks by McCain and the Israelis, the oil futures markets are rife with speculation and paranoia. This war talk keeps ratcheting up the prices on the oil futures contracts and hence the wholesale spot market prices. It is an endless spiral of greed and paranoia.
As long as there is no tough and effective oversight of the electronic oil futures markets by the Bush Administration, the oil prices will climb endlessly. These oil prices will be quickly followed by hikes in the retail gasoline prices at the pump. The 60% speculation share of the $4.25/gallon gasoline price, is about $2.55/gallon, which is what we consumers are paying to these oil speculators as a “service fee.” Not a bad “fee,” since the speculators produce no usable goods or services…Just a few large greedy oil futures traders helping themselves to your gas money.
Without this added-on oil futures “service fee,” you would be paying about $1.75/gallon for gasoline. Write, call or smoke-signal your Representatives and Senators today and suggest that they read the June 2006 report by The U. S. Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations entitled, “The Role of Market Speculation in Rising Oil and Gas Prices.” Then demand that they investigate and then force the Bush Administration to firmly regulate the computerized oil futures contracts trading in New York, London and Dubai.
These unregulated electronic oil futures trading markets should be completely shut down immediately. They serve no social purpose, they only enable corporate greed. These same greedy corporate speculators are probably also responsible for the rapid rise in the prices of basic food commodities, such as wheat, rice and corn. No one who is not prepared to accept physical delivery of one thousand barrels of oil on their front doorstop should be allowed to participate in the oil futures markets. Same goes for wheat futures, rice futures and corn futures.
In year 2000 elections for presidency Republicans falsely attacked Al Gore that he claimed that he invented the ‘Internet’.
That was a big slogan then that Republicans used..[Al Gore invented the Internet].
Now we can use say the same [McCain invented Blackberry].
September 16th, 2008 at 2:00 pmAl Gore invented the internets
September 16th, 2008 at 2:00 pmGuys seriously, these attacks are not working. Lets hit McCain on his support for Free Trade.

I didn’t have a kitchen table, my friends, to put those blackberries on even if, my friends, I had blackberries in the kitchen I didn’t have that didn’t have, my friends, a table. Or, my friends, a kitchen table chair for the kitchen table I didn’t have, my friends, in the kitchen I didn’t have that didn’t have blackberries.”
“What’s that? Not that kind of Blackberry? Well, POW-POW-POW anyway, my friends, because Senator Obama won’t come to my town halls.”

Thanks-

September 16th, 2008 at 2:18 pmMcSame doesn’t know what a Tevo is. The guy doesn’t realize that when he says something one place and then flip flops at another, he is actually caught on a recording telling lies. The guy is so far out of it, it boggles the mind.
September 16th, 2008 at 2:19 pmBoy, Tracy and Dennis are weak today. More projection to reinforce their shallow beliefs. Maybe they are hoping for another Sarah new clear moment to cheer them up.
September 16th, 2008 at 2:20 pmTHIS IS AN ATTEMPT BY THE MCCAIN CAMPAIGN TO DISTRACT and change the conversation from Leaman Bros, Merrill Lynch and AIG (the bankrupt economy) and while we’re all talking about this silly Blackberry business, they will take over the economic conversation with cute phrases like “Wall Street Casino Culture”. DON’T BITE ON THIS.

September 16th, 2008 at 2:21 pmMcCain and Palin fight back against the Left and they do smears also. Bush lets the Leftists beat him up. So Leftists will miss Bush, because McCain fights back where as Bush doesn’t.
They need to keep McCain and his people far away from technology. I mean, did they really think they could parlay being a member on a committee as a driving force when he actually voted no on the bill that permitted the Blackberry to come into existence?
They not only don’t know the Blackberry, they don’t know “the Google” so they keep getting caught with their fraud. Since their lips were moving we knew it had to be a lie and they didn’t disappoint.
September 16th, 2008 at 2:23 pmStupid troll. Still don’t get it?
Here’s the deal: When a blog, or other media entity, accurately reports what people say and do? It’s not an “attack”. There’s really no need to attack the Flippy/Chippy/Jebus ticket because, they have no substance, class, or accountability. They are utterly unqualified and utterly unable to defend their positions.
September 16th, 2008 at 2:23 pmwe actually realize a lot of things but you don’t seem to have your finger on the pulse of current events, obviously.
slinging leftists and other slurs really doesn’t really add to your crediblility…..just makes you look petty…like bush.

September 16th, 2008 at 2:26 pmIf the Republicans don’t stop lying about us, we are going to continue to tell the truth about them…and we have proof and can back it up!
September 16th, 2008 at 2:26 pmAs Pete points out, repeating factual statements made by mccain is not smearing.
smearing is when the swift boaters lie and no one calls them on their lies….
smearing is when you say someone is a muslim for political gain when you know when you say it that it is a lie.
for more examples of smear: see republican.

I’ve been searching online for a while without success…
But SOMEWHERE out there, there must be a quote from McCain whn he ran in 2000 about Gore “inventing” the Internet.

McCain and Palin don’t fight back – they just lie through their teeth. They lie about their own record and they lie about Obama’s record. They know they can’t win an actual policy debate, so they have to resort to repeating the same lies enough times until people believe them.
September 16th, 2008 at 2:34 pmFunny that Dennis is the only person I have heard actually ADMIT to being one of the 23%er supporters of Dubya. Do you consider that a badge of courage or just an admission of total stoo-pidity?

And no effort must be spared in revealing the truth about these: dishonest, ignorant, dogmatic, vindictive, partisan, delusional, aggressive and incurious, cancers on the body politic.

BTW, if you want to impress with poll numbers? One must do one of two things.
1. Consider ALL polls so the errors average out.
September 16th, 2008 at 3:01 pm2. Disregard the polls which sample equal numbers of registered Republicans and Democrats. All that those polls, such as Gallup, show is party loyalty.

September 16th, 2008 at 3:13 pmIt seems Dennis has struck a nerve around here. Is it him pointing out that Russia is paying off Progressive groups for support? Or the fact that Putin is a Rightwinger, but Progressives still want to believe that he has some KGB ideology in him. If Putin is using the Left, more power too him! He’s setting you guys up for a fall.
Dennis,
September 16th, 2008 at 3:17 pmWhat part of Russia are you from?
Billy Boy! Says:
Funny, how come he just dry fu cked bush and bush is helpless to do anything about it? Seriously, russian troops are still there even after bush threatened them.
your boy is useless unless he can send in troops. out of the question against russia.
September 16th, 2008 at 3:21 pmlooks like Dennis has shed his dennis skin for some billy boy facade.
Maybe your next new name should be Sybil.
September 16th, 2008 at 3:24 pmFred,
September 16th, 2008 at 3:24 pmYou know Putin is a Rightwinger and hates Progressives, don’t you? Persoanlly I like Putin, I wish he was my President. He puts the Left and Islamic Terrorists in their place.
Laugh all you want about Bush being humiliated, but Putin isn’t your friend. I will laugh when he humiliates Obama, that will crack me up. What will your community organizer do against a strong man like Putin?
upside99,
September 16th, 2008 at 3:25 pmI’m not Dennis and I asked him what part of Russia he’s from. Geez, you guys here think everyone is the same.
Wrong stupid sock-troll-puppet. The simple truth is that honorable people have grown tired of dishonorable people and those who blindly support them. We are tired of traitors in the halls of power. We are tired of dogmatic fools. And, most especially, we are tired of those who we have trusted lying to us at every turn.
And, personally, I’m no longer amused by the constant shrieks of “Leftist” when there hasn’t been a prominent American leftist in at least 40 years.
There is no “American Left”. Only a vast moderate majority and Reichwing Radicals who are incapable of recognizing reality. Unfortunately, those Reichwing Radicals hold a disproportionate amount of power. But, at least, they won’t be able to take advantage of a complacent majority again. Bushco made sure of that.
September 16th, 2008 at 3:27 pmI gotta wonder how many psychiatrists lurk this site just waiting for multiple split personalities like DenBilisslyBoy to show up. Great thesis material, and for free!!
September 16th, 2008 at 3:27 pmI never said he was my friend or hero. You are the facist in the group. I just find it funny that you revel in a hypothetical while trying to ignore a reality. Bush ate shit doled out generously by putin and you somehow think Obama can do worse?

Your sentence style is exactly the same, moron.
You are not fooling anyone here Trajun.
September 16th, 2008 at 3:30 pmYou are only proving what a fool you are.
Fred,
September 16th, 2008 at 3:31 pmHow will Obama stand up to Putin? A Community Organizer vs. Ex KGB? I place my bets on ex KGB. Also once Obama is President, I will support all of America’s enemies, just like the Left does. Putin will smack Obama around like a wolf devours sheep!
I can’t wait!
And, the point we mustn’t forget. Flippy McSpin LIED AGAIN!
September 16th, 2008 at 3:31 pmBut when you come here daily with the same inane posts and never any facts……calling us leftist. Reveling in a hypothetical humiliation of Obama while faced with the reality of bush’s humiliation it just seems like you are the same…..deal with it.
bush is a much larger humiliation than his poor perfomance against putin. The iraq folly will follow him through the halls of history.
September 16th, 2008 at 3:31 pmWayne,
September 16th, 2008 at 3:32 pmSorry Im neither Dennis nor Trajan. Keep guessing, I bet you’ll never guess!
Krushev(spelling)tried it against another “community organizer” in the 60’s you do remember that don’t you?
I guess you are talking about the way Osama bin Ladin has humiliated bush and slapped him around in Afganistan for 6 years now…..that what ya mean?
September 16th, 2008 at 3:34 pmFred,
September 16th, 2008 at 3:36 pmBush being humiliated by Putin is no suprise. Heck he’s been humiliated by Think Progress and the Left! He’s a wimp and I don’t respect him. Also, if Bush would intervene militarily, you Leftists would be the 1st ones protesting and calling for his impeachment.
My take on Georgia, we should let Russia take it, the Ukraine and the Baltic States. In return, they sell out Iran and we pulvarize that nation into the ground and see you Leftists cry.
But Bush is an idiot, he’s an ex coke head.
But I want to see what the Community Organizer will do! Ha, that will be funny. Everyone will spit on him.
Fight fight fight!
September 16th, 2008 at 3:37 pmWell. At least the stupid troll realizes that Sen. Obama is going to be our next President. And he admitted that his patriotism stops at the GOP. What an utterly disgraceful display of partisan buggery by the faux patriot.
You just identified yourself as a traitor to your country ass breath. Go play with people who you can actually compete with. Though I’ll be damned if I can think of a group so utterly disgusting.
September 16th, 2008 at 3:37 pm“Krushev(spelling)tried it against another “community organizer” in the 60’s you do remember that don’t you?”
Kennedy was a tough, man. He was a war hero and wasn’t some community organizer. You’re comparing apples and oranges. Obama is no Kennedy, Obama is the kid everyone picked on!
September 16th, 2008 at 3:37 pmSee billy boy, bush thought he could do it alone and he has failed. Obama is not an imperialist. You shouldn’t be either. Not if you are an American.
The world will rally to Obama and problems will be addressed in a way that will work…..not like the failure we have just witnessed.
Speak softly and carry a big stick. Not carry a big stick and use it at every opportunity until everyone falls in line.
September 16th, 2008 at 3:38 pmpete,
September 16th, 2008 at 3:38 pmThe Left has supported our enemies for the last 8 years. SO why not us on the Right do it! I will happily support Russia and China against a Leftist America anyday!
Billy Boy! Says:

So, your multiple personalities do not know the others exist, symptoms the meds are no longer working.
You should really make your scheduled appointments with your shrink, goofball.

“The world will rally to Obama and problems will be addressed in a way that will work…..not like the failure we have just witnessed.”
Ha ha ha ha ha ! You can’t stop Russia, they have nukes and have Europe by the balls. Obama wouldn’t do nothing about Georgia either. Dream on, the world doesn’t care about America, never has never will. Putin will smack that Community Organizer around and I can’t wait!
September 16th, 2008 at 3:40 pmSee troll rant
Rant! troll rant!
See troll think
September 16th, 2008 at 3:41 pmI bet he can’t
Kennedy was a visionary, that is what Obama has in common with him. Something the right has never been able to wrap their weak minds around.
You act like Obama is a sissy. Funny, he’s matching mccain right now and soon will walk casually away with this election. That’s not weak if you consider mccain was a pow.
September 16th, 2008 at 3:42 pmFred,
September 16th, 2008 at 3:45 pmWake up, It will be a close Election. Obama is no visionary, he’s just a puppet of teh Chicago Daley Mob linked Machine.
I think Obama will win, but narrowly and he will be damaged and will be unable to goveren. The Dems will not not pick up any seats in the House and may 4 in teh senate. The Right will frustarte Obama and then putin will make his move to expose Obama as the wimp he is.
Hillary was cleaning Obama’s clock at the end of primaries, remeber!
Obama is a nobody, you guys just support him because he has a Arab name and is Black. That’s all.
Even if this were true, FDR was that kid too. Obama is a competitor…..try a game of basketball with him. mccain gets his accomplishments spoon fed to him because he is the “richy Rich” of the GOP. mccain is the real pussy.
September 16th, 2008 at 3:45 pmWith this statement you have proven that you hate America. You are talking about using a forign government to destroy your fellow Americans.
I am through with you and your foolishness. Please stop telling others to wake up.
September 16th, 2008 at 3:48 pmMcCain is so far out of touch that nearly EVERYTHING HE SAYS now is a lie! Just like his lover Bush!
September 16th, 2008 at 3:48 pmPoor billy boy, he/she can’t decide who to be at any point in time, kinda like his he-roe, McDepends.
Must be the poor nutrition he suffered under in ‘Russia’.
Heh Heh
September 16th, 2008 at 3:49 pmThis is another statement that shows how totally ignorant you are. Race and name are how republicans vote, not democrats.
September 16th, 2008 at 3:49 pmBilly, I think you are bi-polar. You vasilate between trying to convince me and reveling in my purported humiliation.
Seek help dude.
September 16th, 2008 at 3:52 pmHi Mr.P!
Glad school’s out and you’re posting here again.
Okay, not really.
September 16th, 2008 at 3:55 pmDRxJ,
That was my first thought as well when all that ‘russia’ crap came out. AND the challenge us to figure out who he really was.
And we didn’t need to wait for one of his self-induced meth/Cheetos rants to figure it out, did we?
September 16th, 2008 at 4:02 pmWell if that was the great mr P then what a dissapointment he turned out to be.
September 16th, 2008 at 4:04 pmHi Billy Boy:
September 16th, 2008 at 4:14 pmYou have lots of kooky things to say. What other zaniness might you share this day?
Looks like billy/dennis/mr. p has left the library media room. Wants to beat all that N. VA rush hour traffic around GMU on his way back to mom’s basement.
September 16th, 2008 at 4:18 pmOne of the advantages of posting sporadically because of work is being able to instantly spot Mr.P’s style.
Example from a post above:

Must be his school library doesn’t utilize Firefox?
September 16th, 2008 at 4:23 pmYou hit on it earlier, Fred. In addition to being an avowed traitor, the piss-soaked coward is more afraid of Sen. Obama’s “imaginary secret agenda” than the real-live asinine, declared, and potentially disastrous, intentions of the Reichwing.
But then, what can one expect from someone who looks around and thinks, “boy, the libs sure could mess this up“. Duh! It’s already more messed up than it’s been in 80 years, if it’s ever been so messed up. And they are trying to convince people that a change is too risky? Not to mention the absurd inference that Chimpy failed because he’s not radical enough.
I think that Tim Conway’s “Mr. Tuddball” might have said it best way back on the Carol Burnett show: “It’s a no use arguing with a loony-tune”!
Lord knows today’s GOPpers have become cartoonish in their folly.
September 16th, 2008 at 4:48 pm“The Right will frustarte Obama…”
What does “frustarte” mean?
“at the end of primaries, remeber!”
AND “remeber”???

September 16th, 2008 at 5:46 pm[McCain campaign adviser Douglas Holtz-Eakin]: He did this [holding up a Blackberry]. … Telecommunications of the United States is a premier innovation in the past 15 years

September 16th, 2008 at 9:04 pmOh, read the rest of the article. Need to read first, need to read first, nevermind….
September 16th, 2008 at 9:06 pmI would love to see the following in the Presidential Debate:
A person from the audience produces a VCR and asks McCain to program the clock.
September 16th, 2008 at 10:04 pmListen, when John McCain finally figures out how to work a gadget, he thinks he invented it. Because, in his mind, he did figure out, meaning ‘invent’, how to work it. For the record he also thinks he invented soap bubbles.

Does it take more dexterity to use a Blackberry or a P.C.?

Dennis do you realize you are a moron and a weak one at that and that YOUR SIDE PERFECTED THE SMEAR and dishonest attack? You are far too ignorant to be taken seriously and do NOT have amazing mind reading powers to tell us what the American people think. That is just one more in an amazingly long line of delusions you have like the one where you make sense or that you are taken as anything but an imbecilic TROLL.
September 17th, 2008 at 1:05 pmDennis Says:
dbadass,
McCain and Palin fight back against the Left and they do smears also. Bush lets the Leftists beat him up. So Leftists will miss Bush, because McCain fights back where as Bush doesn’t.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Dennis you are a liar and a fool. Bush is a disaster and no one is smearing the lying ignorant cretin. McDufus and Caribou Barbie are lying and smearing not fighting back. YOU are just too stupid to know the difference. Stop letting rightwing screechmonkeys do your thinking for you. I understand you are WAY too stupid to do your OWN thinking just get a better class of moron to do it for you. I suggest you hire a reasonably bright six year old. You will still be wrong most of the time but you wont embarass yourself quite so often or so completely

hussein toasterhead,
I’m Russian, no where near Latin or even in Florida. I hate Communists and that’s why I hate you Lefties. My Dad used to work for Intelligence back in the old USSR days. He told me how they funded the Leftists movement. I know what’s up with you guys.
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
No Dennis you hate lefties because you are an ignorant hivemind moron and you have been TOLD to hate lefties. Since you KNOW you are too stupid to think for yourself you just parrot the ignorance you have been fed like the coprophageous idiot you are. The left in America are not communists only the REALLY feebleminded morons still buy that really ignorant nonsense. And you dont know about us in fact you dont KNOW anything you just regurgitate on command what you have been instructed to regurgitate like one of Pavlovs dogs except not quite as bright.
