Joe the Plumber on the campaign trail-lol

[kosar]

foxnews.com (where else)



Joe Wurzelbacher, a.k.a. "Joe the Plumber," on Tuesday twice agreed with a claim from an audience member at a John McCain rally that "a vote for Barack Obama is a vote for the death to Israel."

Wurzelbacher was hitting the campaign trail on behalf of McCain for the first time, joining former Rep. Rob Portman on a GOP bus tour through Ohio.

At a stop in Columbus, he fielded the question on Israel from a self-identified Jewish senior citizen.

The questioner said he was "concerned" with Barack Obama's associations and "It's my belief that a vote for Obama is a vote for the death to Israel."

Wurzelbacher responded: "I do know that."

The questioner then complained about Obama's tax policies and reiterated his Israel comment.

"Well, you know what, I'll actually go ahead and agree with you on that one," Wurzelbacher said. "You know ... no, I agree with ya.'"

Wurzelbacher's first trip to the podium as a McCain surrogate was freewheeling. He often apologized to reporters gathered in a flag store for talking from his gut.

"I'm honestly scared for America," Wurzelbacher said.

He later said Obama would end the democracy that the U.S. military had defended during wars.

"I love America. I hope it remains a democracy, not a socialist society. ... If you look at spreading the wealth, that's honestly right out of Karl Marx's mouth," Wurzelbacher said.
"No one can debate that. That's not my opinion. That's fact."

Though "Joe the Plumber" has become a centerpiece of McCain's campaign in the closing days of the presidential race, McCain aides told FOX News the Republican nominee does not share Wurzelbacher's opinion on Obama's view toward Israel.

Obama states on his Web site that he strongly supports the U.S.-Israel relationship, as well as Israel's right to defend itself and foreign assistance to the country.

McCain, though, has suggested Obama's commitment to Israel is not as deep as it should be.

A McCain TV ad out Tuesday ridicules Obama for saying Iran, whose president is openly hostile toward Israel, is a "tiny" country that "doesn't pose a serious threat."

The narrator says: "Terrorism, destroying Israel, those aren't serious threats? Obama -- dangerously unprepared to be president."

Subject: OBAMAMANIA!! VERY INTERESTING

To All My Friends, this is long, but very
important, please take the time to read it. This election has me very
worried. So many things to consider. About a year ago I would have
voted for Obama. I have changed my mind three times since than. I
watch all the news channels, jumping from one to another. I must say
this drives my husband crazy. But, I feel if you view MSNBC, CNN,
and Fox News, you might get some middle ground to work with.

About six months ago, I started thinking 'where
did the money come from for Obama'? I have four daughters who went to
College, and we were middle class, and money was tight. We (including
my girls) worked hard and there were lots of student loans.

I started looking into Obama's life.

Around 1979 Obama started college at Occidental
in California. He is very open about his two years at Occidental, he
tried all kinds of drugs and was wasting his time but, even though he
had a brilliant mind, did not apply himself to his studies. 'Barry'
(that was the name he used all his life) during this time had two
roommates, Muhammad Hasan Chandoo and Wahid Hamid, both from Pakistan.

During the summer of 1981, after his second
year in college, he made a 'round the world' trip. Stopping to see
his mother in Indonesia , next Hyderabad in India , three weeks in
Karachi, Pakistan where he stayed with his roommate's family, then
off to Africa to visit his father's family. My question - 'Where did
he get the money for this trip?' Neither I nor any one of my children
would have had money for a trip like this when they were in college.

When he came back he started school at Columbia
University in New York . It is at this time he wanted everyone to
call him Barack - not Barry. Do you know what the tuition is at
Columbia? It's not cheap! to say the least. Where did he get money
for tuition? Student Loans? Maybe.

After Columbia, he went to Chicago to work as a
Community Organizer for $12,000 a year. Why Chicago? Why not New
York ? He was already living in New York.

By 'chance' he met Antoin 'Tony' Rezko, born
in Aleppo Syria, and a real estate developer in Chicago. Rezko has
been convicted of fraud and bribery this year. Rezko, was named
'Entrepreneur of the Decade' by the Arab-American Business and
Professional Association'.

About two years later, Obama entered Harvard
Law School . Do you have any idea what tuition is for Harvard Law
School? Where did he get the money for Law School? More student
loans? After Law school, he went back to Chicago . Rezko offered him
a job, which he turned down. But, he did take a job with Davis,
Miner, Barnhill & Galland. Guess what? They represented 'Rezar' which
is Rezko's firm. Rezko was one of Obama's first major financial
contributors when he ran for office in Chicago.

In 2003, Rezko threw an early fundraiser for
Obama which Chicago Tribune reporter David Mendelland claims was
instrumental in providing Obama with 'seed money' for his U.S. Senate
race. In 2005, Obama purchased a new home in Kenwoood District of
Chicago for $1.65 million (less than the asking price). With ALL
those Student Loans - Where did he get the money for the property? On
the same day Rezko's wife, Rita, purchased the adjoining empty lot for
full price. The London Times reported that Nadhmi Auchi, an Iraqi-born
Billionaire loaned Rezko $3.5 million three weeks before Obama's new
home was purchased. Obama met Nadhmi Auchi many times with Rezko.

Now, we have Obama running for President.
Valerie Jarrett, was Michele Obama's boss. She is now Obama's chief
advisor and he does not make any major decisions without talking to
her first. Where was
Jarrett born? Ready for this? Shiraz, Iran!
Do we see a pattern here? Or am I going crazy?

On May 10, 2008 The Times reported, Robert
Malley advisor to Obama was 'sacked' after the press found out he was
having regular contacts with 'Hamas', which controls Gaza and is
connected with Iran.

This past week, buried in the back part of the
papers, Iraqi newspapers reported that during Obama's visit to Iraq ,
he asked their leaders to do nothing about the war until after he is
elected, and he will 'Take care of things'.

Oh, and by the way, remember the college
roommates that were born in Pakistan? They are in charge of all those
'small' Internet campaign contributions for Obama. Where is that
money coming from? The poor and middle class in this country? Or
could it be from the Middle East ?

And the final bit of news. On September 7,
2008, The Washington Times posted a verbal slip that was made on
'This Week' with George Stephanapoulos. Obama on talking about his
religion said, 'My Muslim faith'. When questioned, 'he make a
mistake'. Some mistake!

All of the above information I got on line. If
you would like to check it - Wikipedia, encyclopedia, Barack Obama;
Tony Rezko; Valerie Jarrett: Daily Times - Obama visited Pakistan in
1981; The Washington
Times - September 7, 2008; The Times May 10, 2008.

Now the BIG question - If I found out all this
information on my own, why haven't all of our 'intelligent' members of
the press been reporting this?

A phrase that keeps ringing in my ear - 'Beware
of the enemy from within'!!!

There's nothing to be afraid of, Raymond. They are people just like you and I.

 

[Skulnik]

Kosar, maybe Obama will campaign with REV. Wright?

Kosar, maybe Obama will campaign with REV. Wright?

I would prefer he did w/ Colin Powell & Warren Buffet.

Kosar, maybe Obama will campaign with REV. Wright?

Just the reaction of certain 'elements' would be worth it alone.

My sources tell me that McCain plans to replace Palin with Joe the plumber in the 2 spot on the ticket. Polls taken after rumor of Palins replacement by Joe the plumber indicate that Obamas' lead shrunk from 9 points to 6 points as apparently most Americans think Joe may be more qualified than Palin as vp.

I've also heard Sarah has signed on for next seasons Dancing with the Stars, Hollywood Squares and may replace Joy Bahar on the View.

your right again Ray!

 

[freelancc]

that news segment between Shep Smith and Joe the Plumber (about Israel) was probably the most outrageous news segment i've seen on any network in a long time.:nono:

 

[djv]

I do believe at this guy's pay grade he would be better off with Obama's tax plan. He tried to sound like he was a over the 250000 earner. And of course truth leaked out. He's not close. So other chit that comes out of his mouth why beleve any of it.

 

[Roger Baltrey]

Interesting that they would bring some ignorant buffoon out and make him the centerpiece of thier campaign. I would not rank this campaign as low as Al Bore and John the Wooden Indian Kerry but if they keep this crap up it will give those 2 a run for the money. Hard to beat them because they blew easy leads over the worst president of our lifetimes but Johnny Mac is not availing himself well here.

Yahoo! Buzz Digg Newsvine Reddit FacebookWhat's this?COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) ? A federal judge in Ohio has ruled that counties must allow homeless voters to list park benches and other locations that aren't buildings as their addresses.
U.S. District Judge Edmund Sargus also ruled that provisional ballots can't be invalidated because of poll worker errors.

Monday's ruling resolved the final two pieces of a settlement between the Northeast Ohio Coalition for the Homeless and Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner.

The coalition agreed to drop a constitutional challenge to Ohio's voter identification law until after the Nov. 4 election. In return, Brunner and the coalition agreed on procedures to verify provisional ballots across all Ohio counties.

The coalition was concerned that unequal treatment of provisional ballots would disenfranchise some voters
