Obama/Biden: Ignorant or Vindictive

There has been a reaction to Barack Obama and Joe Biden based on the Obama ad that criticizes McCain for supposedly not knowing how to use a computer or send an email and an incident where Biden shouted for State Senator Chuck Graham (MO) to ’stand up and let the people see you.’ In response to these two ‘gaffes’ it is suggested that Obama and Biden are either vindictive or too ignorant to understand that Senator Graham uses a wheelchair as the result of being a disabled veteran as well as Senator McCain’s disabilities at the hands of his captors in Hanoi that make it impossible for him to do certain things such as use a keyboard.

It would appear that the experience of Senator Biden’s many years in Congress and that of Senator Obama’s time as a community organizer have not provided them with the where with all to either gather this information in advance of making blunders or possess the common courtesy not to make light of it during a political campaign. Certainly it is not fair game for any forum under any circumstances. There are many reactions to this situation and some are provided here.

The excerpt below is from ABC’s Political Punch and Jake Tapper their Senior National Correspondent who was once called the chief political reporter or some such nonsense. And yes, you’re right, this blog does not approve of Mr Tapper now or before. Some of the comments feature those angry over the Obama/Biden approach to disabled veterans and others offer the typical comments from liberals. The initial review of this source included a notice that the video was not currently available and one can only wonder why since no explanation was available either.

Barack ‘Isotoner’ Obama to Take Off His Third or Fourth Pair of Gloves and Get Tough

September 12, 2008 7:11 AM
Like any number of Democratic candidates before him — Mike Dukakis, Al Gore, John Kerry — Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., is once again declaring that he is going to take off the gloves and fight back against attacks from the Republican Party.

The example above may answer the question of will the MSM even make mention of this treatement of disabled veterans by Obama/Biden. The answer is probably not or they will offer all sorts of excuses or suggest as Obama did that there is phony outrage at his latest incredible mistake(s).

There is a compelling email from a disabled vet and a story about a letter to the editor based on the Obama/Biden factor. The story is offered at Michelle Malkin’s site and this highlighted text will take you to

Obama-Biden: Which disabled war vets will they insult next?

Next the sentiment of many is expressed at News Busters in reaction to this most recent blunder by the Obama/Biden team. Of course between the time of writing and posting this the fine left liberal team may have already commited another travesty in their pursuit of wrecking our country.

Will Media Report Obama’s Mocking of McCain’s Disability?

I certainly don’t expect the media to cover the Obama campaign’s lack of decency in their last campaign ad video pointing out John McCain’s inability to send emails. There are only two explanations to their insensitivity. Either they are mocking John McCain, or they lack in their own abilities on the internet. Either way, it should be a major embarrassment for the Obama folks. Of course, the media will pretend to be ignorant of it all.

Now the only question remains is how this will affect Obama and Biden’s chances for the election in November. But if history repeats itself the liberals will make some excuse and the media will go along and the rest of us will shake our head in disbelief at the joke that is the left and its media. However, if enough voters finally see the Dems ticket for what it really is sufficient votes will seal the deal for the Democratic party and another duo of also rans known as Obama and Biden will fade into oblivion.

    These incidents are just part and parcel of mean spirits. Obama NEVER thought he would come under scrutiny - and of course, blogs are just blogs. I’ve noticed that his “chin-tilt” has been missing lately. It’s hard to pout with your chin in the air.

    Biden has been a buffoon for years. I still can’t believe Obama picked him, but I’m thankful he did.

    In the Presidential forum on 9/11, I couldn’t believe Obama postulating about “serving.” I think he has always gotten paid for his service. I’m not finding volunteerism in his past.

    After gaffe prone Joe Biden shouted ’standup’ to Missouri State Senator Chuck Graham in his wheelchair a Biden supporter was quoted as saying about that or another gaffe that ‘oh, that’s just Joe.’ They all know it and accept it and it is okay with them. With Obama’s ad mentioned here, Biden’s endless gaffes, their supporters efforts like those mentioned on your site about 9/11 and they have the nerve to say their change will restore America’s standing in the world. Only if their change includes turning America socialist or to an Islamic state would that be believable.
