...when Obama was running around Indonesia in diapers, McCain was mastering this slightly technical piece of machinery...
Well, that’s just putting lipstick on a pig...(/moonbat mode off)
Nice!
I love FR because of posts like this-—freaking hilarious and totally on point.
See, Republicans have a Big Tent too...A place where even the Tigers and Green Wave can come together....
Geaux Tigers....
Remember, like the commercial says ... Mac > P.C.
I suppose that when Obama is president he’ll spend lots of time surfing the internet, sending e-mails and having chats.
Great post. Well done.
A fighter pilot landing on a carrier in difficult weather conditions certainly conjures up visions of why a community organizer is more technically literate (LOL). These Rats keep stepping on the only thing they ever think with.
You know it might’ve occured to Obama’s camp before the insulting commercial that there are a great number of people in the over 45yo age range that know zero about computers too and as the age goes up the percentage goes down. Since there are more voters over the age 0f 45 than those under IMHO it was a grave mistake to again call those people stupid! My DM is 67 and can play solitarie but that is it and that new commercial has all in her elderly building upset!
BUMP
Mark...Newsbusters needs to pick this up....
Thanks for posting this.
Besides, Internet is easy. My kids had to teach me how to use Windows.
When I was trying to learn it (after DOS) my daughter just told me (she was 12 at the time): “Mom, just look at the pictures!!”
McCain could do it, but just like a lot of folks, they just don’t want to take the time. Their life works (and has worked) just fine without it.
A VERY excellent point. Being a fighter pilot, especially one that takes off and lands on aircraft carriers takes a LOT of intelligence, and skill. Honestly, after watching the last few commercials Obama’s people have come out with, combined with his public comments (like lipstick) it would seem that Obama really DOESN’T want to win. They are continually digging themselves holes.
Say no to ageism. Say no to sexism. Say no to Obamanism. McCain/ Palin 2008.
Yep. Belittling senior citizens, a fast growing sector, ought to help him greatly. What an idiot.
All the while organizing the communities of America!
At the end of the video they can show Obambi operating his wussy little MAC computer.
One thing Obama is saying is that the elderly have no value. To the elderly, or senior citizens, computers are not the most important things in their lives. Obama only wishes he had the experience that seniors have. He might be worth something.
Operating that machine, with any specificity, is above Obama’s pay grade.
Obama would be to busy cleaning out his pants if he had to use that piece of equipment.
LSUfan (not a big LSU fan after what they did to beloved Irish in the 2007 Sugar Bowl), you captured in one picture the most powerful argument to one of the left’s most imbecilic claims in an attempt to belittle Senator John McCain.
The question is; So, obambi — do you know what a tail-hook is used for?
Can you take off/land a jet from a pitching and rolling aircraft carrier during general quarters...hum punk, well can ya...didn’t think so — now sit down and STFU, adults are talking!
Excellent post!
Yes, but as we found out before—An idiot can fly a jet because Bush flew one.
Jeez, haven;t we learned anything //sarcasm off
But he's a whiz bang with computers.
And he flew it into the guns of people just as “backward,” and more than once. More stones than sense. I wonder how Obama scores THAT way? I can guess.
(mene, mene, tekel, upharsin)
WRM, MSgt, USAF(Ret.)
As you point out, he flew fighter aircraft. Once this is pointed out, Obama’s people look foolish.
Secondly, I don't care if my President doesn't have an ipod. He's not in a coolness contest with Obama. Again, making this comparison makes Obama look “cool” but hardly Presidential.
Also, older people vote more than young people. Older people will empathize with McCain.
Foolish move on Obama’s part. His entire staff must live in some weird bubble where Wired magazine and MTV emerge as the key demographic of their campaign.
PRICELESS!
Cheney’s got a weather raygun under the gulf of mexico on a submarine.
Does this mean something’s wrong with Cheney or is there a technical glitch with the raygun since New Orleans is safe and Galveston is in the line of fire?
If he ever used Windows Vista he’d probably nuke Redmond, Washington.
“But he’s a whiz bang with computers.”
What a hoot! Have you noticed that when Obama is without his teleprompter, his mind goes into “Blue Screen of Death” and he looks like a deer in headlights?
The way McCain's team has been putting together quick response ads, they could have one out by tomorrow morning. Anyone know how to get the idea to them?
1982 - McCain was a footsoldier in the Reagan revolution, and had laready been a war hero, a POW, a leader of the largest naval squadron, and won election to Congress ...
Obama was doing this ...
“Junkie. Pothead. That’s where I’d been headed: the final, fatal role of the young would-be black man. Except the highs hadn’t been about that, me trying to prove what a down brother I was. Not by then, anyway. I got high for just the opposite effect, something that could push questions of who I was out of my mind, something that could flatten out the landscape of my heart, blur the edges of my memory. I had discovered that it didn’t make any difference whether you smoked reefer in the white classmate’s sparkling new van, or in the dorm room of some brother you’d met down at the gym, or on the beach with a couple of Hawaiian kids who had dropped out of school and now spent most of their time looking for an excuse to brawl. ...You might just be bored, or alone. Everybody was welcome into the club of disaffection.” — Barack Obama
If bambi was plinking keys in the middle of the night and the laptop made a squeak and bambi jumped, did it really happen if Michelle didn’t actually see it?
If you noticed, McCain hands are in bad shape due to his Injuries in Nam and resultant arthritis I wouldn’t be surprised if the condition of his hands makes punching a keyboard difficult. Seems like a good opportunity to put together a counter video together reminding people of this fact followed by some images of the fighter with cockpit that he flew.
“You know it might’ve occured to Obama’s camp before the insulting commercial that there are a great number of people in the over 45yo age range that know zero about computers too and as the age goes up the percentage goes down.”
And if you know the types of old geezers I know, once they DO know computers, they send out emails every day to everyone they know ...
And it wont be pro-Obama emails either with this kind of nonsense.
McCain should reverse the whip on this one and say once again obama alienates older americans that are not so cool and hip and tech savy as the other people in his america reverse the whip john!
Bush took the same grief about his flying TANG jets “over the Gulf of Mexico,” as if that were moron’s work. I’d love to see the people who attack them on their lack of technolgy expertise even start to fly one of these things.
Thanks for making Obama look like a total idiot once again!
...just what is Obama looking at on line?
1) Obambi just lost even MORE of the vote of those people over 50 - treating them like they're stupid.
2) The McCain campaign should use your idea as a commercial. It would blow Obambi's butt clear out of the water!
Yes, without the teleprompter he’s lost. LOL!
This is a great response. Good job!
I’d like to point out one thing though - for accuracy sake - .... Obama was like 6yrs old when he moved to Indonesia, so he probably wasn’t in diapers then. Though he was in diapers when McCain was a pilot. :~ )

As a TU alum parent, I must observe that the comparison of Tigers/Green Wave is not dissimilar to emailing v. flying ;)
