Mark Hemingway is a libertarian who doesn't care for the moderate liberal McCain. But his mind has been made up by the MSM/Drivebys unhinged attacks on a private citizen who had the temerity to disagree with the One.

Heh heh heh. The ‘RATS are so desperate that they are up to all kinds of dirty tricks. The problem is, right now, America is watching them.

I’m telling you, JTP is our October surprise.

McCains will win the election because of Sarahs appeal, Cindy’s cookies (she won the bake off with Michelle O yesterday)and Obama and the MSN’s attacks on the everyday Joe, Joe the Plummer.

If McCain does win, we will be hearing how a everyday citizen saved the Country in 2008 for years to come!

Right now, Mac is bitch-slapping Zero with “jokes” in the “Alfred E Smith” memorial dinner.

He’s saying “with humor” everything that everyone has been screaming for.

It’s freaking hysterical!!

McCain needs to stand up and call the media to the mat for their ugly behavior. They will soon find out that their are a lot more Joe the Plumbers than them come election day.

What was that sound I just heard? Oh, a backfire! They've screwed the pooch this time. It was bad enough what they did to Governor Sarah Palin and her family, but she's a politician and we expect them to be able to handle the rough-and-tumble, especially in the big leagues! But Joe the Plumber is just like you-and-me, a working stiff, dreaming of buying out his boss someday and becoming successful. He's not running for anything, yet they send private eyes, opposition research and the media after him because he inadvertently embarrassed Lord Obama! FRiends, that is what Kim Jung Il, Mao, Hitler, Stalin or Pol Pot would've done! This is America, not a tyrannical dictatorship! Tomorrow I will make 200 phone calls in support of McCain/Palin and send them $200, and I challenge everyone here to do the same!!

Not only that, Obama was mocking JTP on the campaign trail today. Making fun of McCain for taking up for a plumber and insinuating that no plumber could make that kind of money.

McCain needs to hammer Obama with this for the remaining two and a half weeks.

Obama is acting like the smartest guy in the room who looks down on people beneath him. People don't like that about someone who is a self-absorbed narcissist.

There are tradesmen all over the country who are in Joes shoes and they are mad as hell. My brother owns his own AC/Heating company with 2 employees. He grossed over $250K last year and hopes to do better this year. He and millions like him know Obama wants to punish his success and hard work.

That if you work hard you can do better...

Obama's response..

Biden Mocked JTP on Leno just now. He continued saying he doesn’t have any plumbers in his neighborhood that make 250k a year, then said, “We are worried about Joe the Fireman, Joe the policeman, and Joe the REAL plumber with license.”

Rodham Gergen and Co on CNN were calling him Joe the Fake Plummer tonight. Elitist SOBs. I’d vote for McCain twice if I could, just to see their sour puss faces on election night.

Yup.

Did you hear Dick Morris' commentary on Sean's radio show today?

He stated that it's very possible that Obama's interaction with Joe The Plumber has now sealed Obama's doom.

A little sneak peek into exactly what an Obambi administration would be like. Dissent will not be tolerated!

AFAIK this is just a rumor, but there’s supposedly a person who was going to speak out about Obama and Ayers and what they knew about their relationship who has been scared to come out with it, because of this type of situation.

Those were an embarrassed “laughs”, IMO.

Every time he stopped “laughing”, that vicious dark look came over his face and his eyes went cold and black.

He didn’t think it was a bit funny.

Zero’s “routine” was a preachy drag.
He shouldn’t give up his day job.

“There are tradesmen all over the country who are in Joes shoes and they are mad as hell. “


Good point, a great number of tradesmen are largely apolitical and will pull the democrat lever because of a distant image of “for the working man”.

This incredible phenomena with Joe will draw some of those tradesmen to focus a little sharper this election, and make a more proactive choice with their vote.

I was stunned. Mac was awesome. His riff about the Clintons was absolutely hilarious. Aside from the deaf guy behind the podium, about the only person not laughing hysterically was Katie Couric.

B. Hussein paled in comparison. A few times, it seemed that he was the only one laughing at his weak jokes.

IMO -

I really like the three responses at NRO. Especially the first one that points out all of the obvious.

I believe Joe has given us Americans a very valuable lesson. None of this should happen to a person because they question. We need to open our eyes and make a stand against this kind of behavior.

AND......... I think it's time to shut out MSM. They think they control this country. Because THEY say it's true, it is.

Obama and Biden are outraged at the thought that a guy from a working class background might make as much money as somebody with a Harvard degree. They think that only people like THEM, people who make money by running their mouths, should be ALLOWED to earn an upper-middle-class living

They are elitist snobs of the worst sort. It doesn't occur to them that a small business owner, of whatever kind, may make good money while providing employment to a bunch of people.
