John McCain invented the Blackberry. At least, that is what his campaign would like you to believe. ““He did this,” McCain’s top economic adviser Holtz-Eakin said holding up his Blackberry. “Telecommunications of the United States is a premier innovation in the past 15 years, comes right through the Commerce committee so you’re looking at the miracle John McCain helped create and that’s what he did.”
No word yet on if McCain knows how to operate his blackberry. But, it’s well known he doesn’t use e-mail, so I’m guessing he can’t be responsible for all the features. Yesterday, a study of business travelers came out asserting that 35% would choose their Blackberry over their spouses. Is McCain responsible for the breakdown of these American families for his crackberry innovations?

Wow, John McCain helped to create the miracle that is the Blackberry? He doesn’t even know how to get online, and yet he is responsible (single-handedly, no doubt) for information technology’s holy-of-holies?
I assume this message is being brought to us by the same political team that incessantly accused Al Gore of claiming to have invented the internet. Glad they’re finally getting to set the record straight. Go McCain! (straight to hell)

Perhaps the funniest part of this claim — the Blackberry was invented in Canada

McBrain is losing it…
“I know how to win this war!”
“I know how to fix Wasington!”
“The fundamentals of the economy are strong!”
“I created the Blackberry!”
Because… “I AM THE CREATOR!!”

CHURCHILL-Y
“John McCain Invented The Blackberry”
And Obama apparently invented Christianity:
“Jesus was a community organizer and Pontius Pilate was a governor.” – So say the Obamatrons.
ObamaMessiah !!!
CHURCHILL-Y

Churchill-y’s got a Man Crush on Obama! Don’t deny it, Guv’ner. You want to bend over for it, we know. It just comes out as race-fueled hate but we know that you would drop to your knees for a brotha POTUS.

I have read your posts for week now. You are a very sad man, very sad. I doubt if your actually gay, I would guess a pedophile, maybe a Catholic priests exiled to a trailer park somewhere in Indiana, trying to avoid the public while you await trail. You think I am kidding but actually it feels like I am getting a psychic hit. Something about you is really dark, really nasty, really dangerous.

My wife’s blackberry is the bane of my f’ing existence — she sets the alarm and forgets to turn it off — then when she is not home and leaves it here — and it being password protected, I am left with the GD thing! Vote for Obama –at least he didn’t “invent” the blackberry!
