Its NOW time for who are you?
Maybe it's just me but when I read the comments people were posting on an article about the "Joe the plumber" saga on one of the major news websites I felt a stir ...a connection with a passion that has been tapped.
We have all been blindsided by this Obama phenomonon. The ones of us who are cynical but yet trusting about what our country stands for may be shocked soon. We may be dismayed by the results of this election if we don't stand up and get everyone to vote against Obama. The odds are daunting yet should we back down. The polls showed a tie yesterday and the MSM said not much. But when the manipulation of the media with the economic failure issues arose last week they made Obama a Saint in all of this and reversed the polls against Obama by quite a few points. And yet he bounced back these last few days. The Majority of Americans do not want Obama. There are many who are silent who don't. There are many cynical who would never vote for anyone who don't want him (or McCain) but I think against Obama.
We need to stand-up for ourselves! We are being pushed aside by the liberal media and the Obama Machine! Stand UP! Stand up for what is right! Stand up for what we have always beieved about our great country. Stand up for McCain Palin and talk to your friends and neighbors about why this Obama guy is not who they think he is!
These are some of the many people who made comments about "Joe The Plumber" and what this symbolizes. I think it symbolizes the remnants of a middle class. The Americans who dream of succeding and actually with hard work,educating themselves and a good capitalistic system CAN! An American who CAN and will do what is best for himself or herself and help everyone that way and not to take from you and give to someone who doesn't deserve it. The Wealth distribution policy of MARXISM!
Joe The Plumber is the self reliant American! Joe the Plumber is the one with some values! I am Joe the Plumber!
The left mock Joe. Tries to destroy his life with all their efforts in 24 hours! Tells everything to everyone about him after invading his life. All he did was ask a question about Obama's Tax policy when Obama knocked on his door or came to his neighborhood..whatever.... But the fact remains they (Obama-media) distorted the encounter. They sought to destroy HIM! they sought to destroy the message! If an average middle class person working hard has a dream and wants his own small business and will make about 250,000 or more before taxes ..They will be hurt by Obama's TAX the RICH policies! That is the debate!
European Socialism or American Individualism? You decide! STAND-UP!
Here is what some people said when they attacked Joe:
Come on Americans, lets all smell the coffee! I started from the ground up at my company and bought it in 2000. My company's success has NOT been a result of my genius or hard work; but the result of passionate, hard working, employees who are my greatest asset AND obligation. Those who sit in an ownership seat that are still successful today, have not fallen to an arrogance of ownership... Senator O's team is pretty darn arrogant. It bothers me to see "Joe" ripped because he asked a few fair questions. I ask you, what does it tell you when your supervisor trashes you because you'd like to understand what you need to do to advance, make more money, etc. ? I am guessing you rightfully think the person is an arrogant jerk, who cares nothing about your success, just theirs. You probably move along as well to a company that does not repress fairness in any form. It strikes me here that Barack's "bottom up" economics, which will only perpetuate mediocrity at the expense of your achievements, now has a big bully in the form of left wing media to shut you down. I am a registered independent that knows the middle ground, and its not in the form of a candidate who embraces the tactics and holds the reins of a strongly left wing media machine. Smell the coffee and speak up, and loudly. Let Barack know the media looks better as cheerleaders...ugly ones at that in my opinion. God Bless us, and PLEASE God bless this great nation. Keep the faith "Joe's" -----from smellthecoffee
I used to live in Germany. They tried to do the spread the wealth thing...well we paid 56% taxes in addition to 18-19% sales tax ( which every person has to pay no matter what) . Unemployment is through the roof and people don't want to work since they know they are being taxed stupid.The NET growth for the coming year is estimated at 0.2% .IS that what America wants????? Obama's plan will bring small businesses to raise prices ( everybody will feel that) , fire employees ( unemployment will go up) , out source or close the doors ( unemployment will go up) ... All this pretty talk about 95% tax cuts is not working since the small business will have to pick up the bill. The comments oh when you make 250000$ as a small business owner you can effort to pay more are so uneducated and can only come from a person who has no idea how it is to own your own business. well here is the deal , before you pay yourself: you pay rent , insurance for employees ( unemployment and workmanscomp), equipment, material, salary for employees etc.... well when you are very lucky you might get some salary yourself. Most of the small business are struggling and trying to just keep going on a minimum for the owner. Please America wake up and get a realty check!------snhaz
THE ISSUE IS NOT JOE! THE ISSUE IS OBAMA'S SOCIALIST AGENDA! AND YES - I AM TYPING IN ALL CAPS BECAUSE I AM INDEED YELLING! -----notanobamafan
Let’s argue with THE REAL FACTS. Based on from end of WWII to present: The US economy has grown on average 6.8% under Republican administrations, versus 2.4% under Democrats per year. Advantage: Republicans by 4.6%. The stock market (S&P500 index) has grown on average 10.6% per year under Republican, versus 2.5% per year under Democrats. Advantage: Republicans by 8.1%. The economy has added 200K jobs per month under Republican administrations, versus 50K jobs per month under Democrats. Advantage: Republicans by 150K. The average unemployment rate has been 4.9% under Republican administrations, versus 6.9% under Democrats per year. Advantage: Republicans 2.0%. Folks, ignore focus-group words such as liberal, conservative, socialism, free market that mean completely different things to different people, and vote based on facts. The facts are that, if you want better economy, more jobs, better investment returns, vote Republican. If you want slower economy, less jobs created, and lower investment returns, vote Democrats. I am Joe the Plumber-----thor
by veracity [Oct 17, 2008 6:42:36 PM] The theft of Joe's tax return and turning it over to the press is a serious "Big Brother" action of invasion of privacy and theft of government documents. "Joe" has been advised to seek legal assistance to sue the Obama campaign, the IRS employee who delivered the file, the reporter who received the stolen goods and the media company for which he works. Don't feel sorry for him. He will soon own the business he has wanted to buy. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Welcome to the "New Democratic Party" Veracity. Anything goes will be the motto. Imagin Obama, Pelosi, B. Frank, Reid. . .the list goes on. . .having full control of YOUR pocketbook. So far Ohio's Secretary of State sees no reason to do her job. . .she blatantly does as she pleases. . .and take notice, PLEASE. . .the Supreme Court has SIDED with a criminal. Get the picture? I am a retail person but I am Joe the Plumber
