From Obama spokes-clown Dan Pfeiffer

“Our economy wouldn’t survive without the Internet, and cyber-security continues to represent one our most serious national security threats.. It’s extraordinary that someone who wants to be our president and our commander in chief doesn’t know how to send an e-mail.”

So now the Obama campaign is once again mocking McCain for his lack of computer use. What the hell does email have to do with national security? If something happens, do we really expect the president to sit around and wait for an email to find out?

Well, to all the dumbass lefty bloggers spouting the same crap, (even a well respected local blogger thinks it’s an issue and I don’t consider him a dumbass). They should do some research first.

A few points, and when you reach the end of this post you’ll see the Obama camp is simply telling another lie.

Bill Clinton sent a grand total of two emails during his entire presidency.

The archives of the Bill Clinton presidential library will contain 39,999,998 e-mails by the former president’s staff and two by the man himself.
“The only two he sent,” Skip Rutherford, president of the Clinton Presidential Foundation, which is raising money for the library, said on Monday.

When you consider that Clinton’s Vice President ALGORE claimed to have invented the Internet, and also consider Clinton was president during the dot-com boom, shouldn’t this bother the left? No, they have a different standard for their people.

Or this from Boston.com

McCain gets emotional at the mention of military families needing food stamps or veterans lacking health care. The outrage comes from inside: McCain’s severe war injuries prevent him from combing his hair, typing on a keyboard, or tying his shoes. Friends marvel at McCain’s encyclopedic knowledge of sports. He’s an avid fan – Ted Williams is his hero – but he can’t raise his arm above his shoulder to throw a baseball.

After Vietnam, McCain had Ann Lawrence, a physical therapist, help him regain flexibility in his leg, which had been frozen in an extended position by a shattered knee. It was the only way he could hope to resume his career as a Navy flier, but Lawrence said the treatment, taken twice a week for six months, was excruciatingly painful.

”He endured it, he wouldn’t settle for less,” said Lawrence, who rejoiced with McCain when he passed the Navy physical. ”I have never seen such toughness and resolve.”

And how soon the Obama kool-aid drinking moonbats forget.

“Six months ago, no one would have pegged McCain as the most cybersavvy of this year’s crop of candidates. At 63, he is the oldest of the bunch and because of his war injuries, he is limited in his ability to wield a keyboard.”

And this from a New York Times interview in July

Mr. McCain: I use the Blackberry, but I don’t e-mail, I’ve never felt the particular need to e-mail. I read e-mails all the time, but the communications that I have with my friends and staff are oral and done with my cell phone. I have the luxury of being in contact with them literally all the time. We now have a phone on the plane that is usable on the plane, so I just never really felt a need to do it. But I do – could I just say, really – I understand the impact of blogs on American politics today and political campaigns. I understand that. And I understand that something appears on one blog, can ricochet all around and get into the evening news, the front page of The New York Times. So, I do pay attention to the blogs. And I am not in any way unappreciative of the impact that they have on entire campaigns and world opinion.

And more from eight years ago in Forbes Magazine.

In certain ways, McCain was a natural Web candidate. Chairman of the Senate Telecommunications Subcommittee and regarded as the U.S. Senate’s savviest technologist, McCain is an inveterate devotee of email. His nightly ritual is to read his email together with his wife, Cindy. The injuries he incurred as a Vietnam POW make it painful for McCain to type. Instead, he dictates responses that his wife types on a laptop. “She’s a whiz on the keyboard, and I’m so laborious,” McCain admits.

Get my point? Obama’s campaign has no point. They’re a pack of liars. Or maybe they’re just making fun of McCain’s war injuries.
