angelina Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 But is he wrong? Actually..he's not a reporter but certainly got a nice candid remark out of Sen. Obama.The next 3 weeks will be very interesting indeed.John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angelina Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 He's not registered to vote? What happened ...ACORN didn't bribe him with cigarettes to register under the names of the starting front line of the "Buckeyes"? Oh wait.....they registered him as Woody Hayes.BTW.....Sen. Obama would look really good in a NY Met uniform...because he's starting to lose a HUGE lead with a few weeks to go.GALLUP's 'traditional' likely voter model shows Obama with a two-point advantage over McCain on Thursday 10/16/08, 49% to 47%, this is within poll's margin of error...

darlene Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 Joe works for a plumbing business--he's not required to get a "license." Only his boss is.Joe wants to buy a business and then he'll have to get a license, if he can afford one, after Obama taxes him to death. --D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hollies65 Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 I have a plumber who does work for me...best plumber I've ever worked with...he is not licensed...his partner is. What a petty non issue. The question Joe asked was not the problem...Obama's answer was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

austinberries Posted October 29, 2008 Author Share Posted October 29, 2008 hollies/darlene - of course it was a non-issue. what it was was funny & ironic & topical. but an issue? no. you guys want to go ahead & defend his right to shave his head too, while yer at it?

raspberrywine Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 LOL, Obamas tax plan supports Joe the Plumber, or the alleged Plumber in his circumstances. It is completely and totally bogus to say, "when I make $250,000 someday and I have a business of my own your plan could affect me." What a crock of s---. An absurd hypothetical, in other words a mistruth. You might as well say someday when I am a millionaire I wont be happy if your plan wants more taxes from me! Surprised so many suckers fell for the bait. Joe made repeatedly $48,000 last year. Obamas plan has him covered, a tax break to help him and hopefully to his eventual plans someday of having his own business. The manner in which this was distorted and played out to accomodate neo-con fabrications is unbelievable. I loved when McCain actually turned to the camera during the final Presidential debate and addressed Joe. He didnt know this guy from Adam. Using Joe. For his own ends. Unbelievably pathetic, even creepy:" Joe Im going to help you get that Plumbing Business. Im in your corner. Im going to fight against these Commie tax plans and get you the cheap loans you need for that Plumbing Company. After the credit crunch ofcourse Joe. But first, youre going to need a licence. Which means first youre going to need a Journeyman's card. But who cares for details Joe, I certainly dont. This is a time for hope, for not taking your tax dollars and giving them to ACORN members. NO my friend, we can even start that plumbing business together. You, me, Sarah maybe if she gets her act together. We can clean out the Washingon toliet together, just a group of plumbing mavericks willing to go up to our elbows in poop for America."VOTE MCAIN FOR A GOOD DRAIN CLEANING.

hollies65 Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 Your point about someone saying 'Someday when I own my own business and I make $250,000.00 a year as being "bogus" says much more about you than it does Joe the plumber. I would rather have a country full of Joe the plumber's than Raspberrywine's anyday. BTW, you have no idea what you are talking about regarding a plumbing license in Ohio. It's embarrassing to read. I own a business...do you? Have you ever owned one? Do you have any understanding of what your talking about? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Cartmill Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 If you think Obama's promise to give tax credits to 95% of Americans, when we have such dwindling tax revenues and rising national debt, is a promise he can actually keep, well, my friend, you are as wrong...as a male stripper at a Rachel Maddow Birthday Bash...Check out Bill Clinton's tax-cut campaign promise in '92 and his somber retraction in '93.Hmmmmmm...Sounds familiar...Duh.

raspberrywine Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 Youre missing the important logical points, instead prefering to turn it into attack on me. Dont tell me, youre a Republican, right? Hollies honest, I dont know Reverend Wright and I never have received support from ACORN or any Socialist organizations whatsoever.Yes I know alot about business and running them. More than I even care to describe. Bt youre right, I do not know about the details of plumbing licences in Ohio though I take it John McCain certainly does what with the conviction, sincerity, and knowledge base that he spoke to Joe with on these issues! LOL, John McCain wouldnt know a plumber's wrench from a wrenched back. He wouldnt know a toliet drain from a drain on the economy.VOTE MCCARTHY,,,er I mean MCCAIN, ITS A VOTE AGAINST COMMUNIST AMERICA!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hollies65 Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 John McCain was a fighter pilot. My guess is he's the kind of guy who could fix his own toilet...if he could physically do it...which is questionable, considering his condition. I have a good idea who could not handle a pipe wrench. I'll bet Obama can weigh stuff out in grams and ounces though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bessieboo Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 I am Mrs. Joe the Plummer, and I don't feel need to justify how much how or why Joe earns his pay check. But I will say he worked his butt off and scrimped and saved and did things others did not want to do to earn his pay.I am tired of paying for the guy next door who chose not to work the extra hours. The guy next door chose to find creative financing to move into a home he could not afford and to charge the furniture on a zero interest loan that he still could not afford but took these things anyways.These Are real people with real bills that you and I must now pay.I believe in paying taxes, it is what keeps our country moving and provides for the elderly and truly needy . But,I am sorry but I am tired of huge amounts of taxes we pay, and I do not not to add additional taxes to my bill for social programs.BTW - Who are the middle class ?I keep hearing decreasing numbers ? What are the numbers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raspberrywine Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 More character assasination, innuendo, and libel. Gee Hollies at least your consistent with the behaviors McCain and other Repblican puppets!! Maybe if McCain wins he'll offer you a Cabinet post. Fixing the cabinets that is or perhaps Secretary of Disinformation. LOL, you have more distortion in you than Jimi Hendrix's guitar sound did!!VOTE MCCAIN FOR DEFENSIVE AND SARCASTIC LEADERSHIP IN THESE CRUCIAL TIMES!!!Paid for by the Holies Subcommittee on Fair Play for Far Right Propaganda.

Tony Cartmill Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 I'm happy that Barrack was exposed to certain influences during his youth. It makes him more of a well-rounded individual.Well, except the fact that too many of the influences and the people who fed him the ideology he still quietly embraces...ARE EXTREME, COUNTER-AMERICAN AND WILL ONLY MAKE THE CURRENT ECONOMIC CRISIS WORSE! America is only now starting to see that now, because Obama and his team have kept his old speeches and interviews under wraps, and the mostly left media didn't have the desire to fully investigate "their guy".It might be too late.
