I honestly don't know WTF you're talking about. Have any URLs to support your claims?

I guess - I don't watch either of them, I was just curious.

as I thought, you don't read posts, see post #34......


According to a subsequent investigation by the Ohio Inspector General, on October 16, 2008, just four days after Mr. Wurzelbacher questioned Obama, Jones-Kelley, Williams and Thompson held a meeting and specifically discussed "Joe the Plumber." Following the meeting the defendants authorized and instructed agency personnel to search confidential office databases to retrieve information about Mr. Wurzelbacher. All three defendants are believed to have been supporters of Obama's presidential campaign.


The Inspector General found "no legitimate agency function or purpose for checking on [Mr. Wurzelbacher's] name through the [confidential databases] or for authorizing these searches," which he labeled a "wrongful act." The Inspector General also determined that one of the defendants, Helen Jones-Kelley misused state resources to conduct political activities on behalf of Obama.

Ah yes, post #34.
So you consider the digging up of factual information of an individual, morally or imorally, an "attack?"

This happens all the time in the media and in politics. People's lives and information get digged up and exposed. I'm not gonna obsess on this one case over the rest.

Again, I ask....do you consider that to somehow be an..."attack?"

It does? Oh I wasn’t aware that was happening, can you provide other examples where in a citizens private information in the governments hands, is searched for by a government operative so as to provide a political party information?

Boy this guy sure knows how to make a headline.....

I'm betting this is something that his PR guy cooked up.


I thought Joe was an idiot, but as much as we're paying attention to Joe, I think we're the ones demonstrating idiotic behavior.

Joe is an idiot, at least with respect to foreign policy and economics.

Joe was a willing pawn in a little marketing game the Republicans were running: "Look at how in touch we are with the 'average' Joe." Yeah, certainly made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside when the Republicans made him one of their spokesman and sent him on the campaign trail.

I know... but it's all this ire that's giving him stature.

His 15 minutes should have been up by now. People need to let it go...

Lets not just on this on the reps, he asked a question, the media took off after him, as the answer turned out to be a blunder, the reps jumped the shark.
There’s plenty of hypocrisy for all. The sad fact is the duping worked, no one remembers the question and answer anymore, because he did indeed overstay his welcome.

What did those people do to deserve to have our money?

What great swindle? You mean people who run businesses to make a profit.

If only people realized they were involved in the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy. Hell I bet half of them vote democrat.

YYou mean TARP, payback for all those toxic politically correct assets the banks were forced to take on.

And how would that work?

Well, this is truly the end of the Republican Party. I mean, I think they could have survived A US senator switching parties, but a plumber who asked Obama a question? I expect to see the GOP file dissolution papers later today.
