Im confused by a lot of things. Im confused by chapter 7 in my internet applications text book. In this portion of the book we are learning how to write server side scripts.

its not an attack on mccains physical ailments. its just saying that he doesn't know how to use a computer or send an email. whether or not he can do it physically isn't important. they're suggesting that his lack of technological knowledge makes him a poor choice for a leader in the 21st century. i'm not saying whether or not i agree with that because frankly, they have enough people working for them that maybe he doesn't need to ever know how to use a computer.

Its a general attack that doesnt take into consideration a man's situation.
Is it possible his computer illiteracy is derived from his lack of interaction with computers?
I'll take it that he doesn't know how to use a computer.... but it's not like he had the opportunity to learn about computers and then broke his arms, then become too stupid to use them.
He was raised in a time when PCs did not exist so never had the opportunity to properly interact with them.

Does that make sense?

yes. i still don't think it was an attack on his physical abilities though. i think the point that was being made (and an important one to some extent) is that in this day and age some knowledge of computers is important. either way, there are tons of other things to consider when choosing the next president and this is really not one of the main ones.

This is not my deciding point of the president.
I know the attack was not picking on his physical issues.
The ad critiques McCain's ability to use a computer, which he cant due to his injuries and then says he is out of touch with the technology of the 21st century.
A similar situation would be someone telling a man in a wheelchair that he doesn't know the first thing about driving a tractor and then he has no knowledge on agriculture.
