It's true that's a possible explanation, but it isn't even remotely likely. Nor do I believe for a second that you believe it yourself. These are politicians we're talking about. Democrats, at that. They saw that the country was behind the president in the aftermath of 9/11, and for several years followed him like craven dogs.

If someone can prove that the only reason we're in Iraq is because of Bush's religious agenda, then maybe we could make some headway here.
I don't actually think that is the only reason, but if it's part of the reason, it's scary. There's also the oil profits, which I'm sure was a big part. Then there was Saddam's threat to Bush's dad. I'm sure there were a number of reasons, just no good ones.

No, I believe that McCain isn't able to type, I just don't believe that has anything to do with why he isn't computer-literate, if that's true. And what's more, I said so, clearly enough for any honest person to understand. And so when you follow up the above disingenuous remark with the following:

So I'm not counting on you providing a lot of intelligence to this debate either.
I'm afraid it means that I can't count on you to provide any honest discussion here.

Although it's true that sometimes dishonesty can be intelligent.
