A friend of mine conceived and produced this video (with some camera help from loracs) after hearing Karl Rove claim that Senator McCain couldn't use a computer because of injuries he received as a POW. I'm a star!

That is awesome.

That's so cool!! :)

Superb!

I've posted the video to my journal and to Body Impolitic (www.laurietobyedison.com/discuss). Maybe it can get some serious web distribution if more people spread it around.

You rock!

[stonebender.livejournal.com]

Thanks! That's the idea.

I was wondering when someone was going to point this out - thanks for being part of that!

I'm going to go post the link to my LJ, as I spend a lot of time talking about how computers can be made accessible to anyone and everyone.

Now, is anyone discussing how McCain collects over $50,000 a year of disability payments? That's up to five people struggling who are not receiving disability.

I've already commented over at Serene's LJ, but I repeat it here: This is fabulous! My younger son's right hand is contracted downward at a 90-degree angle at the wrist, and his left hand is contracted outward. He has limited range of motion in his shoulders; he cannot lift his forearms any further than about a 90-degree bend at his elbows. And HE can use a computer just fine.

Nice. McCain is just a whiner.

Great!

Thank you.

[stonebender.livejournal.com]

Thanks, it was fun to do.

[stonebender.livejournal.com]

Thanks.

[stonebender.livejournal.com]

Exactly!

[stonebender.livejournal.com]

And Rove clearly just makes shit up.

[stonebender.livejournal.com]

Thanks.

Somewhat against my better judgment I posted this over at KivaFriends. Since I have been critical of the political thread there I felt I needed to balance it a bit, so I also added a McCain disability link. (Even though everyone over there already knows I'm a "crazy California liberal" as they say).

Anyway, hopefully it will get some views from that as well.

Cool. Thanks.

It's a great video! Do you know the other people on screen?

Sorry I took so long to reply. I haven't been in much of a writing mood. Anyway, I do sort of know the woman typing with a mouth stick. I have met her a couple of times during various disability related protests, organizational meetings, listserves etc. I don't really hang out with her though.
