Two Minute Warning
Mudville Gazette — ... premise of his complaint to Mr. Obama about taxes may also be flawed, according to tax analysts. Contrary to what Mr. Wurzelbacher asserted and Mr. McCain echoed, neither his personal taxes nor those of the business where he works are likely to rise if Mr. Obama’s tax plan were to go into effect, they said.1984: He was abusing Big Brother... he was advocating freedom of speech, freedom of the Press, freedom of assembly, freedom of thought... 2008: Host Mike Huckabee, the former Arkansas governor and presidential ...

Some Common Joe Sense
Babalú Blog: an island on the net without a bearded dictator — Some Common Joe Sense Reacting to the media's scrutiny of his past and present, here's your daily dose of common sense courtesy of "Joe The Plumber", via the Toledo Blade : "I am a plumber, and just a plumber, and here Barack Obama or John McCain, I mean these guys are going to deal with some serious issues coming up shortly. The media's worried about whether I paid my taxes, they're worried about any number of silly things that have nothing to do with America. They really don't. I asked a question. When you can't ask a question to your leaders anymore, that gets scary. That ...

The Toledo Scum Blade
Daily Pundit — The Toledo Blade, in reporting on a Joe the Plumber appearance on Fox, dropped its pants, squtted down, and shat this turd into the middle of the report, apparently in service to the general media effort to destroy Joe for daring to question Hussein “The One” Obama: toledoblade.com — ‘Joe’ wildly received on Fox News show In the days since the debate, it became known Mr. Wurzelbacher is not a licensed plumber, is not buying a business that makes enough to be taxed more under Mr. Obama’s tax proposals, and has some ...

"In what kind of nation do the media investigate critics more than candidates?"
Classical Values — ... , I see that the exact amount of money that Joe owed for his past traffic tickets is a bigger MSM concern than the future president's former drug dealer. But I digress from from Mitch Albom. Maybe I'm complaining too much. At least Albom was nice enough to leave out the traffic tickets. And he said nothing about the now-discredited claim that Joe isn't registered to vote. Instead, he kvetches about Joe's use of his middle name. Since when has it become a dishonest offense against liberalism to use your middle name as an appellation? Plenty of people -- liberal icons among ...

Joe the plumber hits back at Obama and the media
USS Neverdock — When you can't ask a question to your leaders anymore, that gets scary. That bothers me." That should bother us all.

New Party: radicals, redistribution, and ACORN
Hot Air » Top Picks — ... .  While the Tanning Bed Media continues to report on Joe the Plumber’s driving record , only a handful of journalists appear interested in the record of an actual politician.  Kurtz discovers that Obama’s affiliation with the New Party brought him into alliance with hard-Left progressives, Socialists, and into a partnership with ACORN: During his first campaign for the Illinois state senate in 1995-96, Barack Obama was a member of, and was endorsed by, the far-left New Party. Obama’s New Party ties give the lie to his claim to be a post-partisan, post-ideological pragmatist. ...

"Transformational"? Hell, Pol Pot was "Transformational"...
The Discerning Texan — ... (OK, it’s a pittance, but, hey, we’re trying to assassinate someone’s character here). Joe isn’t running for anything. He is an ordinary working stiff. He was throwing a football around in his yard with his son when Obama walked by and he took the opportunity to ask a sharp question. The candidate gave an answer that was just a little too candid. Result: Joe must be publicly pilloried and the focus must be moved firmly from Obama’s answer to Joe’s alleged misdemeanors. A few days ago, Joe spoke to Mike Huckabee on Fox TV. “I asked a question. When you can’t ask a question to ...
