You even went so far as to allege that perhaps McCain doesn't use a computer as he might need a prosthetic aid, talk about a stretch. Discrimination against the physically handicapped, (your words) what a bunch of crap!
Now it's all about McCain being old and pandering to the youth? Then you throw in the references to the draft dodgers and flower children and Hanoi Jane. Steveo, your problem is you are stuck in the 60's! That stuff is 40 years ago, get over it! You are the personification of Walter Sobchak from "The Big Lebowski"!

If it's "soap-boxing" because I don't follow the O/B campaign like some pied piper is leading the way, and you don't like anyone disagreeing with how your favorite candidate conducts business, that is your problem, not mine.
Many times poeple on this board use the approach of personal attacks on the writer as their rebuttal, and you apparently are not different. That's again is your problem, not mine.
Yes, the ad was anti- disabled veteran and age discriminatory to me. Again, that is my interpretation and if you don't agree with that, you have that right. However, I do not have to agree with you, either (my right) and if that someone could actually see things differently than as a cheerleader for your candidate, again, that is your problem, not mine.
So, continue the personal attacks, snide remarks, and whatever turns you on. I try to give all of teh candidates the benefit of the doubt - even your candidate when the religious junk was being spread because that was unprincipled - but I guess the glass doesn't allow viewing in but one direction.
Yes, I may be "stuck in the '60s," but it is better than being blind in the 00's....
