Obama Ad Ridicules McCain over War Injuries

When McCain's camp points this out, do you think Obama will come back with his accusation of 'phony outrage'?

does a presidential canidate have to pass a FBI background check? if obama wereTO APPLY FOR A JOB AT THE fbi or the secret service he would be denied because of his ties to william ayers,there fore if he became president he wouldnt be qualified to gaurd himself!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Obama will never be half the MAN McCain is!
He could never endore what John McCain went thru,
Maybe he should remember the old saying about,
Walk a mile in my shoes before you judge me!

You've got to be kidding, Mark. McCain himself brought up the fact that he did not know how to use the internet. I've seen him take pen to paper. So, now he can't put fingers to keys?! Yes, we all know he's a war hero, blah blah blah blah blah. But, you are going to say that the gist of this ad was offensive because it showed a keyboard?! God almighty, what a joke.

This is low. How much lower can a desperate Obama sink. I am so sick of the love fest for Obama with the networks. What has he done? Oh yes, he registered folks to vote. He does not have the guts to serve his country but he can make fun of a true war hero.

It was only 2 years ago. Remember the election in 2006?
Thought you might like to read the following:
A little over one year ago:

1) Consumer confidence stood at a 2 1/2 year high;
2) Regular gasoline sold for $2.19 a gallon;
3) The unemployment rate was 4.5%.

Since voting in a Democratic Congress in 2006 we have seen:

1) Consumer confidence plummet;
2) The cost of regular gasoline soar to over $3.50 a gallon;
3) Unemployment is up to 5% (a 10% increase);
4) American households have seen $2.3 trillion in equity value evaporate (stock and mutual fund losses);
5) Americans have seen their home equity drop by $1.2 trillion dollars;
6) 1% of American homes are in foreclosure.

America voted for change in 2006, and we got it!
Remember its Congress that makes law not the President. He has to work with what's handed to him.

How does McInsane wipe his butt with a slopped up hand? Oh, ahhh, Palin does that... job.

I SAID IT: OBAMA IS BEMUSED AND CONFUSED.
A STAR HAS RISEN: PALIN
A STAR HAS SET: OBAMA. DEAL WITH IT..
ONE BLUNDER AFTER ANOTHER ISNT HELPING..
DEMO PARTY-A HOUSE DIVIDED... HURRICANE PALIN IS ON 2 DAYS OFF..
SHE RETURNS TOMORROW. OBAMA BETTER HIDE UNDER A ROCK...
I HEAR OBAMA'S FUNDRAISING IS "ANEMIC"
SO MUCH FOR FLIP FLOPPING ON PUBLIC FUNDS.
MCCAIN IS SITTING PRETTY WITH $300 MILLION.OF HIS MONEY REPUB PARTY--.
HE SPITES A WAR HERO. NOT GOOD!!!

are you serious? Mark this is f*cking disguisting, it really is. I clicked on the ad saying 'Obama ad ridicules McCain over War Injuried' thinking i was about to be really disgusted and dissapointed in Obama, i thought that Obama might have actually stooped to Karl Rove politics to boost himself back up in the polls, and i click on an ad that could have been written by a 3rd grader with down sydrome blindly following his Republican father's point of views...seriously Mark you should be reporting for Fox News your bias and rediculous claims insult me and im sure everyone else with an I.Q over 50


McCain not being able to send an email has nothing to do with him being a P.O.W, everyone knows that and MCCAIN himself said that he's neither a mac or P.C guy and has to rely on his wife to turn on and use a computer.

I am so sick of the fear mongering twisted BULLSH*T that is making its way's to headlines today. I'm watching a country that just spent 8 years in the toilet willing to throw down for another 4 years because they are allowing themselves to be brainwashed by the same assclowns that got Bush elected in 2004...i cant say 2000 because we all know who really won that election and it wasnt Bush.

All you McCain supporters, remember how pissed McCain was in the 2000 GOP primaries because Bush used low, smearing BULLS*TH tactics? Remember when Bush claimed McCain had an illigitemate black baby? remember when Bush claimed McCain was a homosexual and starting to lose his mind? Remember how after those low attacks McCain pledged to be a "strait talker" from there on out and run an honorable campaign because he would rather lose an election honorably then win with a campaign that uses tactics from the gutter?

Well what the f*ck happened to that John McCain? Every claim he has made in the past week against Obama or for his campaign (i.e Obama supports sex ed for kindergardeners, Palin "stopped" the bridge to nowhere, Palin and McCain are both against earmarks.) have been widely debunked and in front of all of our eyes we were shown that the Republicans are using the same low tactics that got us 8 years of George W. Bush, not to mention McCain voted with our current president 90% of the time in the year 2008 alone...

I cant believe how stupid our country really is, i can not believe after 8 years of hell people have "informed" voters have not opened up their eyes and done some research on their own instead of reading bias BS articles like my man Mark Impomeni has written above...

WAKE THE F*CK UP AMERICA

Yeah right, McCain can't send email because he's too stupid to take the time to learn. Stop giving us crap about old war injuries. McGeezer's campaign has told one lie after another. Oh, and about his lead in the polls, the most recent Gallop Poll shows McCain beginning to lose his post convention bounce. Obama also leads in the key battleground states, such as Ohio, Pennsylvania, New Hampshire, and Michigan. The fact is, if the election were held today, Obama would win the election. So screw the fake outrage from the McCain campaign. We know you can't talk about the issues since you would be BUSH.

McCain Says Mayors and Govs don’t have National Security Experience. October 22, 2007
In GOP Race, Game On
By Reid Wilson
ORLANDO, FL -- While some Fox News employees worried their debate would be overshadowed by the Major League Baseball playoffs, those who did tune into the event, from Orlando Sunday evening, saw the gloves come off more dramatically than any previous meeting of the GOP candidates.
Romney also took flak from Senator John McCain, who has long criticized various positions the former governor took. "Governor Romney, you've been spending the last year trying to fool people about your record," he charged. Earlier, he took on Romney and Giuliani: "I wasn't a mayor for a short period of time. I wasn't a governor for a short period of time," he said. "I didn't manage for profit. I led for patriotism."

In a debate on October 21, 2007 McCain said Mayors and Govs don’t have national security experience.

This whole process has deteriorated into FOOLISHNESS.

There are SERIOUS problems and issues that should be being actually addressed --- by BOTH sides! --- most notably matters relating to just HOW this society is to now undertake to RECONSTITUTE OUR ENERGY "DIET" AS "OUR" "EASY" OIL RUNS OUT.

It is now ABOUT 70% GONE already, and the remaining reserves in this country are to be found in LOW-CAPACITY STRIPPER WELLS, or WAY DEEP, or UNDER WATER, or SOMEWHERE NORTH OF THE ARCTIC CIRCLE. (The LARGEST SINGLE "inland" reserve, in NORTH DAKOTA, is reportedly FOUR MILES DOWN --- and only amounts to a HALF-YEAR'S SUPPLY ANYWAY!) All such resources are VERY EXPENSIVE TO "PRODUCE" --- so "we" AREN'T going to be able to "shave" very much (if anything) off the "price at the pump" by resorting to such resources, and more fundamentally, the REAL "competitivity" of oil's alternatives IS APPROACHING NEARER AND NEARER TO "PARITY".

But instead of any sort of substantive educational discussion of what those alternatives ARE, and of WHAT THE IMPACT ON OUR LONG-ESTABLISHED ECONOMIC PATTERNS AND LIFE-STYLE OF THE CONVERSION IS GOING TO BE, what we get instead is NONSENSE --- about the preachments of candidates' MINISTERS, the utter DIVERSION of attention AWAY from any close personal scrutiny of the "personal BAGGAGE" one of the candidates by their "novel" choice of a running mate, and MUCH BLATHER ABOUT LIPSTICK ON PIGS!

Really, people --- how utterly BRILLIANT! ALL such NONSENSE is REALLY just more of the GENERALIZED DUMBING DOWN OF AMERICA --- by "our" marvelous MIS"LEADERSHIP", by EACH OTHER, and by "OUR"SELVES!

Give me a break. McCain does not know how to send an email. He is physically able to but does not even have the curiosity to learn how...Like Obama says he is old fashioned with old ideas.

want John McCain to apologize to the millions of people of people that John McCain voted against when he voted against raising the minimum wage 18 times in 26 years.
I want John McCain to apologize to the millions of people that are loosing their homes.
I want John McCain to apologize to women for his votes against equal pay for equal work.
I want John McCain to apologize to women for voting against the violence against women act.
I want John McCain to apologize voting against emergency funding for victims of hurricane Katrina.
I want John McCain to apologize to our police for voting against funding for law enforcement.
I want John McCain to apologize to the thousands of children that lost their parents looking for weapons of mass destruction that do not exist.
I want John McCain to apologize to members of our military for voting against funding military equipment shortages in Iraq.
I want John McCain to apologize for being only one of only 13 Senators to vote against $430,000,000 for the Department of Veteran Affairs for Medical Services for outpatient care and treatment for veterans?

Yep, our Vietnam vetS are NOT getting the medical support they need from the VA... whose fault is that... EIGHT YEARS OF DUMB ASS REPUBLICAN LEADERSHIP... ! And, are you saying that Cindy is running thing behind the scenes....? HORRIBLE.

Sorry Mark, but your story and the title to your story simply misses the "mark". Yes, I'll agree that the Obama campaign is seriously off its game but nowhere in this ad do I see it as a slight to McCain's war injuries or service to the country. Obama has been nothing but deferential to McCain's service. The ad just says it like it is - McCain is "behind the times".

Mark,

According to an article on today's L.A. Times website, McCain campaign spokesman Tucker Bounds responded to this ad by saying, "John McCain travels with a laptop..."

Taking Tucker Bounds at his word, you might want to check your facts before drawing conclusions from articles that are eight years old in your rush to play the POW card.
