    You keep saying this and basically trying to use the "socialist" fearmongering word that your candidate keeps spouting out.

    Your candidate supported FN, FM, AIG, BAILOUT BILLS!...

    Stop the fearmongering if you aren't going to do it against yourself as well!

    He got off of welfare, got a job and contributes to America.

    Not related to any point of yours, but Obama and his crowd had a good laugh at him being "only a plumber". Nice. BO wants to help lazy people but makes fun of a working American. "Joe the plumber" is not a person, it's a working American.

    i missed it. how did O make fun of him? i heard him mock the fact that the GOP is trying to say that mccain's tax policy is trying to help JTP when its really to help people that make a ton more money than that. please show me where JTP was made fun of (pointing out that he wasnt licensed or paying taxes certainly isnt making fun of)

    here's an example of the GOP mangling the issue---palin interview yesterday

    "So, finally Joe the plumber and as we talked about today in the speech, too, he's representing, you know, Jane the engineer and Molly the dental hygienist and Chuck the teacher and, and all these good, hard-working Americans who are, finally, were able to hear in very plain talk the other night, what Barack Obama's intentions were to redistribute wealth."

    first. the plumber was shown to be helped by Os tax plan. second. i doubt that a teacher and certainly not a dental hygienist are small business owners that stand to get wealth taken from them under obama.

    "a plumber is who he's fighting for" laughter, wahoos and applause.

    "how many plumbers you know makin a quarter million dollars a year?" more laughter and mocking

    Joe outsmarted The Messiah who revealed himself with "spread the wealth around".

    What are taxes really for? To provide government, military, municipal services. It is NOT meant to be taken in and "spread around" to equalize everybody.

    couldnt watch the vid, but if those quotes are all it is, then you are really reaching. not making fun of JTP in the least.

    I watched the video and its cherry-picking at its best. He made fun of McCain, not JTP.

    The fact of the matter is JTP, gave some misinformation on the specifics, to endorse ideology here. He would do better on Obamas plan. Its socialism, when JTP, gets the shaft, but the CEO of Merril Lynch is walking away with 30 million in severance.

    Fortune 500 CEO'n isn't something anyone can do. There are probably more guys qualified to play quarterback in the NFL than there are to run these companies. Companies will have to put up up huge guaranteed money to attract talent.
