however, not being able to type is not a barrier to being able to operator a computer... just ask Stephen Hawking and numerous others who use voice recognition and alternative data entry methods to use computers. [/QB]
and, according to one of the articles i linked to, mccain dictates. . .he was a pioneer in organizing using the internet during the 2000 campaign.  and, is it really in obama's best interest to let mccain bring up his POW experience again?  
 
 would you run an ad against new york governor david paterson accusing him of being so out of touch and unable to relate to traffic concerns because he doesn't know how to drive?

Yep, nobody with arms, let alone arms that have limited mobility, can use a computer.

interesting - what's your source on that?  i read/saw that bush did use e-mail (albeit sparingly) before he got to the white house, but once there he stopped because of security concerns and time constraints.
 
 and while i have your attention: much has been made of obama's "lack of experience", yet...

Mrs Palin, who has been the governor of a state with a population of 670,000 for less than two years, is the most inexperienced candidate for a mainstream party in modern history. (source)
maybe it's because she's "just" candidate for VP?    i might go for that were it not for the fact that the candidate for prez is 74 years old.

*GASP*  you mean to tell me that an executive has the gall to replace staff with people they are better familiar with and are more in line with their policy goals???  for sure nothing like that has ever happened before. . .
 
 i'm guessing  this didn't make many newspapers. . .let's see what happens  now

thanks for not addressing the issue, once again: it's not that she hired her friends, it's that she hired her incompetent friends.  since when does being a real estate agent who "likes cows" qualify one to be head of the division of agriculture?!?  putting beliefs and loyalty ahead of ability leads to sh*t like what we saw at FEMA during katrina.
