RedState.com along with IowaHawk are trying to counter the attack on "Joe the Plumber". There is even an online petition if you want to participate. I think we are all "Joes" and "Josephines" of one sort or another...I know I am.

Yep, I'm Joe. About as "Joe" as they get.

Small business owner, retired. Hubs not completely retired, yet - he's still working to pay off our debts and mortgage before he retires. But, we will possibly hit the magic number next year. $250K will make us one of the enemy - people who have too much.

Somebody really needs to make us pay - make us share our earnings with people who don't have the ability (or the inclination? Rolling Eyes ) to earn as much as we do.

Rush had a woman on the other day that was bonkers over this tax increase of Obama's. She likened it to the government coming to take way one of your good kidneys so that they could give it to someone that didn't take care of their own. I thought the analogy was a good one.

MSM Investigates Joe the Plumber While Ignoring Bill (Ayers) the Bomber
By P.J. Gladnick (Bio | Archive)
October 18, 2008 - 18:48 ET

The mainstream media began a frenzied investigation of Joe the Plumber this week. His "high crime" wasn't anything he said. Instead Joe the Plumber has earned the ire of the MSM because of what Barack Obama said to him, namely that he wanted to "share the wealth." As a result of inadvertently revealing his collectivist yearnings to Joe the Plumber, the latter gentleman is having every last detail of his background investigated including his modest tax lien and the fact that (gasp!) his first name isn't really Joe. That last charge is actually quite laughable since there are probably millions of people in this country who don't use their first name (including your humble correspondent). Perhaps we should take a trip back in time and impeach President Thomas Woodrow Wilson for ditching his first name....(read the entire post at the link above)....


...by the way, my wife goes by her middle name.....
.
....trivia: Do you remember the MIDDLE name of all the girls on "Petticoat Junction"?

but what if I NEED a kidney??? I should be able to rip yours outa your mid section for ME!! lol!

my sister goes by her middle name also.

the left has not done themselves a lot of good with their
attack on him... now he's on Huckabee and other Fox
shows. People are getting the message. They didn't really
understand what he was doing with his tax plan until 'Joe'
got in there. He screwed up with his response! yeah!


thx BO!! you're mocking him and investigating him has
outraged small bz owners across the country. that will
cause their spouses, children, siblings, parents to vote
against you.

Attention, Joe Biden: Meet anti-America America
By Michelle Malkin • October 18, 2008 11:44 AM

So, Smirky is slamming Sarah Palin because she said she likes visiting “pro-America” parts of the country.

Sayeth three-letter Joe: “It doesn’t matter where you live, we all love this country. And I hope it gets through that one of the reasons why Barack (Obama) and I are running is that we know how damaging the policy of division … has been. “We are one nation, under God, indivisible,” Biden shouted to the crowd. “We are all patriotic, we all love this country.”

Just look at the photos and decide whether you belive all these Anti-America, Anti-"Joe" Obama-Biden supporters "love America".

It ain't so, Joe. Get a clue, Joe.

...and wipe that smirk off your face!
