The wingnuts are in a frenzy over Obama’s ad mocking McCain’s lack of technical intellect. They are all coming to his defense saying he can’t use a keyboard because of injuries he received as a POW. That is an interesting argument, but if he can’t use a full sized computer keyboard, then how can he use a cellphone or blackberry? Well there’s pictures of him using those devices on the Huffiington Post.

I also find it really interesting that Glenn Reynolds, the tech man of the wingnut blogosphere, also is playing so deep into this. Shouldn’t someone who is so into the tech world realize there are plenty of alternate input devices made for people that have disabilities such as this? There are special mice, keyboards and even voice recognition.

Of course there is one other key piece that really punctures a hole in the new outrage by the wingnuts. That hole is McCain himself. He admitted in July of this year that he is now trying to learn to use a computer. Now why would McCain admit to that when he could simply claim POW instead? It sounds like even McCain doesn’t believe what is coming out of the wingnuts now.
