Obama-Biden: Which disabled war vets will they insult next?
What a week for the Gaffe Twins.
First, Joe Biden bone-headedly urges a disabled lawmaker veteran (correction: not a veteran) in a wheelchair to “Stand up” during a campaign rally.
Next, Barack Obama mocks John McCain for not using a computer to send e-mail — despite mainstream media articles dating back to 2000 that report he can’t type because of the war injuries inflicted by his Vietnamese torturers.
Who will their next victims be?
Keep these bunglers away from Walter Reed.
Reader Matthew Fritch e-mails:
Michelle,
I just thought I would share this letter to the editor I sent to the Seattle Times and the Olympian in regards to Obama’s latest ad:
As a Disabled Veteran and as an American I was utterly disgusted by the latest campaign ad by Sen. Obama. The ad in which I speak makes the following claim:
“He admits he still doesn’t know how to use a computer, can’t send an e-mail”
The ad shows one of two things; either Sen. Obama has absolutely no scruples about attacking Sen. McCain’s disability he suffers from due to the torture he received as a POW or he and his campaign lack the basic skills to do research prior to releasing this tasteless ad. I did a bit of checking and found the following quote in a Boston Globe article by Mary Leonard dated 3/4/2000 which states,
“McCain’s severe war injuries prevent him from combing his hair, typing on a keyboard, or tying his shoes.”
Perhaps instead of mocking Sen. McCain’s injuries, the Sen. Obama should be reaching out to the disabled community. I see this as just one more reason that Sen. Obama has been slipping in the polls in our great state as well as nationally.

We pressured McCain into picking Palin over Lieberman, so I am hopeful we can eventually force his hand on the illegal immigration issue. McCain seemed to really like all of the attention and support he received for picking Palin. Now all we have to do is convince him he can have that all over again if he builds the fence.
Six months from now when McCain is elected he’s going to turn right around and stick it in the conservative’s rear.
This is why McCain and Obama are headed straight back to a statistical dead heat in two weeks.
The only way Obama can flub that is attacking Sarah Palin. If McCain cam keep her in the line of fire he might win. If it doesn’t backfire somehow.

I don’t have confidence that the polls will change like that, and even so, I have no confidence in the polls. Obama will lose.
I would hope so.
Obama will be Palininated. Resistance is futile.
What kind of immigration reform do the conservatives have anyway? Sounds to me like they’d like to have mass deportation but I guess it would have to start off simple like cutting off free services that I’m not even eligible for.
Jim M, your post of Obama is good and describes the symptoms. Bear 1909 posted a spot on description of him which explains the sickness. Wish he would put it up again.
Obama’s Toast.
Misscheryl, I’ll send bear your request.
Jim M #186 – that article just gave me chills. He writes what most ignore.
Trollman #187- McCain seemed like a beaming father introducing his daughter when he found she was so well received. I do believe we can make a difference in decisions on amnesty. IMHO, the only reason McCain wants the presidency is to prove he is worthy of the position by actual vote. In the meantime, we have to defeat Obama.
If you haven’t eaten dinner yet, here is the latest turd-bomb from the New York Slimes trying to tar and feather Governor Palin.
http://www.nytimes.com/2008/09/14/us/politics/14palin.html?_r=1&hp=&pagewanted=all&oref=slogin
A snarky tone, and bags full of innuendo with the occasional quote to protect the appearance of real journalism (Her assistant told a blogger that she should be ashamed of herself!! The governor hires people that she knows!!! She doesn’t consult career politicians on budgetary issues!!! She has a “penchant for attacking critics!!!” She fires officials who cross her!!!) She’s even responsible for getting her ex-brother-in-law fired as a state trooper!!! Of course, they left out that he tasered his 10-11 year old step-child.
The kooks will love it.
Jim M #186 – I forgot to ask for a link. Since I don’t frequent Powerline I’m handicapped in finding it.
AJ – nudge Bear into giving up his thoughts again as well. Bears (no pun intended) repeat reading. You have our permission on a choke hold if that’s what it takes.
Thanks AJ!
And all the others who’ve thanked me and the true heroes with whom I’ve served.
I can’t speak for others, but I’m always a little uncomfortable for being thanked for having the honor and priviledge to serve our country. I grew up as a second and third generation immigrant whose family history involves escaping tyranny on two separate occasions. We were taught to appreciate this country and the opportunities it gave us. Part of that appreciation was an obligation to serve the country. My father, great uncles and several of my cousins have served. I would continue to serve if that were the will of my service. It is, we were taught what any American who loves his country does.
He was attending Muslim school in Indonesia
Wasn’t he in elementary school?
Like I said – he was attending Muslim school in Indonesia. And the law suit the Hillary folks have filed stated that his mother renounced their US Citizenship for Indonesian. This could be interesting but will probably be buried below the fold in section K.
Doesn’t Monrovia need a community organizer?
Hey Obama. What’s special about E-mail?
Can you shop, clean washcloths and keep house for five children?
Can you clean up your state of corrupt politicians in your own party?
Can you kill and field dress a 1000lbs moose?
Can you govern a state while caring a baby to full term?
Can you handle the abuse the MSM has throne at your family?
Can you fight corporations like big oil and win?
Can you balance a state budget?
Can you do all of these things and still retain a strong moral value system?
We can. We’re conservative Republicans
One more thing Obama

The Obama campaign is falling apart, and keeps reaching new lows. Losers.
Obama sucks. My biggest fear is he’ll kill all white people or increase affirmative action so much you’ll hang yourself in the bathroom.
The Obabalon campaign and the left tards are seeing their vision go up in smoke and it has them foaming at the mouth.

Don’t ask Palin – She had a nanny (3:17 on video)
Essential requirements for hillbilly voters, but a not so special requirement for presidential candidates on the global stage. Mind you, Palin only got her passport last year…. lol
Better and funnier.
Hey sausage
I have 3 college degrees and and income you won’t see in 5 lifetimes. Try field dressing a moose and you’ll understand why that comment is important. Yes Im an Idaho hillbilly
The horrors! Does that mean I can’t have any knowledge of foreign affairs if I don’t have a passport? What a maroon.
BTW nimrod, the point is that Osnobbo doesn’t have anything over Palin. This BS about him having all the experience doesn’t wash. Also, can the O-man fly a Navy jet? Can he give an account where he put country over self knowing there would be hell to pay and it would probably mean he would never be able to send e-frickin’-mail?
You people are so stinking pathetic. You belittle those who you think are “hillbillies” and rubes not having a clue about the things that build character. Yes, character. Something that Obama has none but is one. If OCommie had stayed away from William Ayers and Jerry Wright he might have developed character but as 1 Cor 15:33 states:
“Do not be misled. Bad company corrupts good character.”
You Sausage, would do well to take heed.
One of my friends just called to tell me that Randi Rhodes of Air America (?) is saying
that she knows Sarah Palin’s type…the kind of woman who can’t be trusted in the
neighborhood with teenaged boys. I’m going to try to find a link. I can’t believe that
someone, even a leftist, would say something like this. PDS at it’s peak?
Hey sausage
Come moose hunting with me.
PLEASE!
Ummmm…. It’d Randi Rhodes. You expected civility? BZZZZZZZ! But thank you for playing.
Oh you mean the same Randi Rhodes who claimed to be mugged by some right wing nut? But was really drunk and too embarrassed to admit she was a total loser?

Yea, I might think she was projecting a little with comments like those.
…and for all that showmanship what has it gotten him? If what you say is true, Obama should have this election sewn up but he doesn’t. Does he?
I guess it’s a liberal thing to consistently discount and underestimate the importance of being a decent human being.
She may be laughable but what she is saying is nothing short of slander.
She’s not laughable or funny. She’s disgusting.
These people are not normal.

Tina Fey just did an outstanding Sarah Palin on SNL. Totally nailed the accent.
The best way to clean out a bunker is with a flame thrower.
Time to turn up the heat folks. Watch them fry.
Well folks, the looney limey has us there. Heck, Obama has had his Indonesian passport since he was a child.
Sarah Palin is a bunker buster. So much for hunkering down in the bunker fellas.
I have to admit, I thought it was actually Sarah herself.
They took a few shots, but at least it was up front, unlike an ambush Gibson interview.

Flinchy Binghole Obama is an addictive personality hopelessly co-dependent on the image the world reflects back to him, negative or positive, and has been retarded emotionally and socially by his addictive proclivities.
He has not let one of his “ideas” become real in the world. How does one become Senator in the US Congress and not author one piece of legislation or be a player on a major committee.
FBO does not know how to commit himself. He prances about as the bright boy who does well in class and doesnt consort with the other kids in the school yard. And if anybody takes issue with him he takes cover behind skirts and authority figures who “know” he is special.
FBO and Ayres are delusional and have in common the grandiosity that leads to ruin for those who do not see eye to eye. Notice Ayres survived the ruin of his previous convictions that bombs were the only way. What happened to his comrades?
And FBO’s delusions of grandeur re the USA being able to spend its way out of Great Society era program defects that have crippled millions and ruined public education— who will survive that?
Flinchy OBinghole and his delusional party (Bill Clinton mouthing for the camera last nite as his “wife” took the stage to speak “I love you forever”…
as if she could see it and as if he actually loves anything but power itself) are co-dependent to the core and need validation from each other without a whit’s effort to create something of value,
something real, beyond the realm of their brains
that they do not know how to run for themselves.
Addiction is a beench. And then ya die.
Bear1909 out.
I’m right there with you. A commenter over at HotAir stated that the McCain camp should continue to apply pressure and fight as if they are down 10 points in the polls. I couldn’t agree more. Whip ‘em into submission.

Sounds like an interesting bumper sticker. No one would park too close.
I’m curious, anyone have a travel log on Obama from age 20 until he became a Senator? Internationally I mean, since people have their panties in a wad (or their suasage in a meat slicer) that a working mom didn’t travel much. (They ignore Canada and Mexico.)
Exactly
Last December.
That’s from here

Jim M. #214 – thumbs up for the link. Thank you – just now visited the site and read it again, and some of the others too. The psychological profile of Obama needs to be sent far and wide.
Bear1909 #240 – thank you for your contribution as well. Always enjoy your thoughts, always giving new perspectives to other sides of the equation. Pleading with AJ seemed to do the trick!
Mixing and mingling the thoughts of Bear with those shared by Jim M. by a commentor on Powerline and we have one razzle dazzled, mixed up, scary, avoid at all cost, Manchurian that was born/bred to further the ideals of two very crazed zealots that met and had a child. Either by their neglect or design, or his need to follow their creed, we have standing before us someone who believes it’s his destiny to change, reformat, alter, and restructure society…be very very afraid.

Thank you.
You seem to have forgotten how Hillary was all but booed off the stage at the Tribute Concert just after the attacks. Those on the West Coast did not hear it due to censoring, but the boys were drowning her out.
Do not underestimate just where their loyalties lie or what they would do to ANYONE who insults us or our country.
Just because the president of our union, the IAFF, repeatedly sells us out every election to the Dem candidate, we are majority (40+%) Republican in that union and even higher total vollies and career who are not members.
Just a reminder that we DO have respect for our uniforms…but even more respect for our country and those murdered on 9-11. Here’s the video so you can hear for yourself.
Sausage: “Mind you, Palin only got her passport last year…. lol”
Lincoln never had a passport and never left the country. Would you consider him an incompetent president?
“On September 13th, 2008 at 10:14 pm, sausage said:
Mind you, Palin only got her passport last year…. lol”
It’s not commonly known in Europe that you can go coast to coast in the USA without a passport or having to show governement-issued “papers”, Jim.
That’s why sausage is confused. Most EU types are shocked when I tell them traveling around is different in America. They are used to showing their “papers” to a dozen different “authorities” each and every day.They can’t cross the street without a passport.
Didn’t have a passport = lol.
doesn’t use a computer = lmao.
Wow, the trolls on on their ‘A’ game.
‘A’ = well you know.
petty little subhumans think this is important yet turn a blind eye on Obama’s many many faults, associations with scum, lack of experience and an entire campaign run on Hopey Changey? The idiot can’t put a sentence together without a teleprompter.
Obama is a joke, a puppet in this race for the highest office in the world. His Hopey Changey is just a rip-off of failed ideas and policies from other not so well run Countries by Dictators.
This is a person that can’t run a Dairy Queen yet alone America.

I just got my passport last year too, so what’s your point?
It’s people like you that make socialist liberals a laughing stock because you always bring the debate down to personal attacks. When you do that, you’ve lost.
I’m sorry, it must be that whole “being a veteran and trying to overcome an overwhelming need to administer some wall-to-wall counseling” thing.
Really, just let me get in just a handful or two good dopeslaps and I’ll be fine. Seriously.
Hey folks: I got up early to work on my investments.
Our big sow in the sky government spending has screwed us again. Using the official consumer price index of 3.5% I may do alright. But using the Morr Inflation Predictor (MIP) of 9.3% we’re all dead in the water. I can average 8% return (pretax) yearly. If Obama gets his 35% capital gains tax , we’re screwed. I’m good at investing but their is no way I can keep up with that combined level of inflation and taxation. I’m self employed and have nothing to fall back on . Run your own numbers and you’ll vote for a smaller government.
Yeah, I’ve dealt with these ET’s before (Euro Trolls) For all their education they don’t know a damn thing about America, hardly a one of them knows that it’s fewer air miles from London to Berlin than road miles from Buffalo to New York city.
If they drove from Fargo ND to Billings Montana their heads would explode.
One glance at a supercell thunderstorm 200 miles away over the Texas panhandle would make blood shoot from their eyes.
They also overlook the fact that until this year the average American didn’t need a passport because our neighbors never required one for entry, and the only reason we have to have one now is due, in part, to their mollycoddling of muslim extreemists.
If your on a fixed income you lost 5.9% of your money this year.
Never retire!!!!
Whoo-rah.
I hear Home Depot is hiring. That’s where I’ll be when I’m 85.
I am retired, and I’ve never worked so hard in my life.
Side note: obama supporters just invented a second “Bridge to nowhere” in Alaska to prove that Palin isn’t really a reformer.
Do not adjust your set. That scratching noise you hear is straws being grabbed at.

Keep yucking it up, this is why people, will be driven away in droves from Obama at the Polls. Why do you think your special? Because your mother told you “little wiener you’re so special” she had to, she had no choice, she’s your mother.
I think you’re special too, in a special needs kind of way.
It’s very common knowledge in Europe that when traveling through America itself you don’t need a passport. In fact, Mexicans use a similar system to this day when entering the country.
Again, your limited knowledge on International travel shines through. You might not be aware but there are open borders in the EU for EU citizens.
America – the land where you can actually get arrested for crossing the street at the wrong place lol

If you making $100,000 and living in California that sounds correct. Take $35.000 away for taxes and an average $3,200 house payment you have $37,000 to take care of your family and sent your kids to college. YUP Sounds about right to me.
