Joe the Plumber
I am absolutely shocked at the vitriol of the Left and the MSM. They are treating Joe the Plumber like a criminal - why? Because he asked Obama a question and Obama's answer actually revealed that the Obama campaign is all about turning this country into a Socialist Country. He wants to "Spread the wealth around" because, don't ya know, that would be good for everybody!
Everybody except for those who work hard to succeed. Obama plans to punish any of us who do well by taking more of our earnings than we are currently taxed - a lot more. A whole lot more. And then, to take that money, take out a bunch of it for bureaucrats and then give it to people who have not earned it, don't want to earn it and are now just going to sit back and do as little as possible, since the Joes of the world are making it possible.
Even the Toledo, Ohio City Officials are investigating the poor guy.
This is freedom of speech? I've never seen anything like this before, and it scares the absolute shit out of me.
Naturally, Obama, as always, says that he is not responsible for what other Democrats do or say. He is trying very hard to be a teflon candidate.
He should speak out against this persecution of anyone who speaks against him.

How does the old saw go?...
If you rob Peter to pay Paul, all you are going to achieve is to p*ss Peter and insult Paul.

This Joe the Plumber thing should frighten everyone who believes they live in a free society and have rights. I have never seen such savaging of a private citizen when the encounter was initiated by the ONE. Where is the outcry from both parties?
The more of this I see the more convinced I become it is time to flee to the Constitution Party before it is too late. The Republicans are turning into the Whigs of the late 1840's and should be removed from the stage.

I concur with Jim..a new party is our only hope..the GOP is gone...and the democrats are not a party of left wing socialists.
