I heard on CNN tonight that McSame doesn't know how to
use a PC, a laptop...a computer...good fugging grief. Hubby's mother is 85 years old and she's always sending us email from her lap top. She even plays computer scrabble.
How old is McSame really!! Who will vote for someone who can't use a computer...seriously????

1. He hasn't had to..

...because there's always someone there to get him what he needs, or do what he needs done.

2. And Barack tossed out a few tech-friendly references in his speech today.
He mentioned Google Earth, etc.

town hall meetings. He can't send email. Damn!!!

10. DUH-bya is computer illiterate, and he did 2 terms.
He has to be, to say crap about how he doesn't email, under the guise of some "security" concerns, and thinking the internet is plural. :puke:

12. My mom is 79 and has a PC
Sometimes I have to go over and help her out but it's getting less and less. She only went online 4 years ago but is light years ahead of McShame.

Older than McShame and she still knows more than he does.

My mom may be a Rebublican, but at least she keeps up with the times. I have told her to not forward emails which are political in nature. She used to send me all kinds of bullshit stuff but not now. Keeps the peace within the family.

15. One reason may be a limited mobility of one of his arms
from his days as a POW in Vietnam.

And, really, not everyone feels the need to communicate with the world via computers. Some people do read print books and newspapers, and write long hand.

16. Pfft. It's Admiral McCombpver's way of saying he doesn't use email...
...just like Dumbya.

So that way there's no paper trail, get it!?
