    Joe is not an unlisensed plumber, he’s just un-documented.

    There should be a new comprehensive and bi-partisan program to bring these ‘other than white’ collar people out of the shadows.

    Considering the number of union versus non-union tradesman, it’s not exactly the best idea to start tearing down a man just because he doesn’t belong to the local turdchasers # 0897.

    (Sorry, years as a heat and air man, still have to tease plumbers about their occupation.)

    Thanks for the heads up! I’m home for a few days and will set the DVR.

    Tell it like it is Michelle. The loony left has gone way too far on this one. Attacking a fellow citizen for speaking his mind (while ignoring his valid point) serves only to chill freedom of political speech guaranteed by our First Amendment.

    I definitely think Obama’s opposition research minions went to work to discredit Joe the plumber. It’s a standard tactic used by Socialists all over the world.

    I’m busy trying to make a GOP float out of good intentions, and spare parts. I’ll have pics after Saturdays Whistle Stop Tour.

    Thanks for the early heads-up. Good luck!

    If Joe the plumber was “Carlos”, a naturalized citizen, unlicensed plumber and Obama supporter, and if the right was questioning his credentials, we’d be called racist hatemongers who want to destroy Carlos’ kids.

    I’m already grumpy no breakfast, no caffeine, and still almost an hour and a half before I can head up to the base medical hobby shop to give me the blood test I have been studying for all night. I just turned on Fox News and there is the spiter Whorealdo chewing out McCain for the Bill Ayers crap. Can we please get this bottom feeder off the TV? I would hate to be between a camera and either Whorealdo or Chucky Schumer either one would run you down to get in front of it first. Much better now that I muted the TV, I can not tell you how much distaste I have for that POS.

    Michelle seemed a little angry with the Kill-him-gate scandal this morning. Yikes! (A little disappointed with no shout-out though)

    So Michelle. I’ll be downtown in a few hours today anyway. How about we go give Ward and Andrew a surprise visit? LOL ;)

    Michelle you performed exceptionally well with class and grace. Maria on the other is one of those sociopaths that can lie through her teeth with a straight face. She actually had the nerve to balm McCain for the attacks by the obamamedia and rabid leftist. The liberal handbook lie, cheat, and steal. :roll:

    Thanks for the skinny on the cliff notes RabbidSquirrel I’ll be sure to use them next time! :lol:

    There was some woman on the 5pM show on fox last night, and the lady who was the Fox Anchor tried to point out that the situation Joe The Plumber proposed was what if he bought his company and it put him over that limit. She kept insisting he didn’t make that much and wouldn’t be taxed, totally ignoring the question. That sort of thing really is sad.

    I saw you, Michelle. You definitely ROCK! Thank you! I have started getting up very early to catch Fox and Friends. It is truly the best news/commentary show on TV today. I really appreciate the fact that Fox and Friends allows the guests to actually get their point across without interruption. Laura Ingraham was on O’Reilly last night and I wanted to throw something at the TV! He sure likes the sound of his own voice, doesn’t he? Why have someone like Laura on if you aren’t going to let her talk. I could see her frustration…every time she was just about to make her point, he interrupted her. And, when he said that Obama was a good man and he didn’t have any problem with Obama, Laura went ballistic. Have you noticed that even when he says something really dumb like that, he absolutly will not back down or change his opinion. O’Reilly is never wrong. So, back on topic…Michelle, you brought it once again!! God Bless you and may His angels keep a close watch on you and your family.

    If the situation were totally reversed the left would be screaming of attempts to chill free speech.

    It is important what is happening to Joe the plumber but don’t lose sight in all the circus around it of why the left is in a feeding frenzy.

    The question by Joe and the response by Obama is what is important to the country here and Joe has it exactly right in that it is basically naked socialism under the color of law that he is proposing.

    At least we can be assured that Michelle won’t walk off the set like Ed Schultz did this morning on F&F on FOX.

    Ed is such a joke. He pillories Sarah Palin but in reality he’s jut another man jealous that she’s a much better marksman than he is. Eddie’s a big hunter but, Sarah Palin never accidentally shot her own hunting dog. Yes, back in that late ’80’s Ed shot his own hunting dog.

    I’m from Fargo (where Ed is based) Ed was the “Voice of the Bison” on a local radio station in the late ’80s; he did the play-by-play for the NDSU Bison football team. I was in the student section at each home game where one of our favorite chants was “Ed shot his dog. Ed shot his dog……etc.” The announcers booth was right behind the student section and he had no problem hearing us and it used to send him into a rage. He’s not very respected in his home market, if he didn’t have his national show, he’d be out of a job.

    I would have mention to Maria: If Joe the Plumber was a terrorist Muslim extremist picked up on the Afghan-Pakistan border with Al Queda videos in his pockets, many liberals would have adopted him as their cause. The law professors at Columbia and Harvard would have promptly begged to represent him and a federal judge would order the guy released from custody and we would have a lecture about not assuming that all Muslims are terrorists and how US policy in the MidEast breeds hatred and then the terrorist would have been feted at Harvard and lionized at Yale. But Joe the Ohio guy is just not so romantic to the Harvard crowd. A terrorist, well they will adore him. But a guy who fixes leaky pipes, fugetabout him.
