Re: The lowest political ad in this campaign just aired
This all started over an advertisement meant to give the impression that a person who was able to fly jet aircraft in combat is now some relic who just can't keep up with the kids.
If there ever was blatant age discrimination, as well as discrimination against the physically handicapped - THIS IS IT.
I think of persons like Max Cleland, Daniel Inouye, Franklin Roosevelt - all Democrats - and what their opinon of this advertisement would have been.
Every disabled veteran was effectively insulted by this advertisement, for to have two persons - Sen. Obama and Sen. Biden - who have never served in the military and been "inconvenienced" let alone disabled, approve such an insult to those who have does not say much of them as people and men.
