"'Joe the Plumber' says to HIM it sounds like SOCIALISM!"
Edited on Thu Oct-23-08 12:37 PM by jenmito
Oh, yeah, Sarah? Well, Jenny the Poster says to HER it sounds like HATE SPEECH.

She says SHE doesn't consider Obama a Socialist (in her "interviews," so she claims someone ELSE says it.) Well then, if she's going to quote him, he's fair game. It's fair game to point out his name isn't Joe, he doesn't have a plumber's license, he owes back taxes, he wants to get rid of Social Security, etc. :eyes:

1. That's why plumbers are never hired to make major economic decisions.
Excuse me, pseudo-plumbers.

2. When did Joe the Plumber say that?

6. I don't know. Sarah SAYS he says that.
And who knows-he probably DID say it on one of his many Faux appearances.

10. I hope he didn't, and he finally gets tired of being used. :)

3. Was it socialism when they took up a collection for him to pay his back taxes?
Well, Joe, we're waiting.

11. Oh, I know it was.
But he'll never acknowledge it. The coward.

4. I don't hear McHoover pushing a flat tax Sammi Jo
So, by your own definition its socialism either way and you have lived under socialism all the days of your life.

Further, your definition is off base but your argument doesn't even hold up to the meaning you made up, which means you have no argument.

7. Exactly. And the sad part is that McPalin pretend they don't know any
better when they MUST (at least McCain must). Not to mention Palin doesn't know what the "Bush Doctrine" is, what the job of the VP is, or what "preconditions" are.

8. So Sarah is tapping Joe the P for policy advice?
Quoting him as if his opinion counts? A lying, fake, wanna-be, dreamer?

14. Yes. We need a good 527 ad about good ol' "Joe." Expose him for
the phony he is.

9. Nationalizing banks, buying Sarah clothes,
paying Joe's taxes...

there's some socialistic tendencies alright, but not from Obama.

12. First of all, there is nothing bloody wrong with socialism!
Totally unregulated capitalism does not exist in this country and thank heavens for that.

Second, Joe the Plumber clearly slept during his classes on government, civics or economics, if he bothered to take them at all.

Third, the McCain-Palin ticket is nauseating. Just had to say that.
