Danny Glover, Gina Cobb, Michelle, and Lori Byrd cover what the normal news channels and Astroturfed bloggery won’t — that Joe is getting lambasted because he in one 10-second clip managed to ‘out’ Barack Obama’s primary failing:

“It’s not that I want to punish your success. I just want to make sure that everybody who is behind you, that they’ve got a chance for success too … My attitude is that if the economy’s good for folks from the bottom up, it’s gonna be good for everybody … I think when you spread the wealth around, it’s good for everybody.” -Socialist-American Barack Hussein Obama

Wait a couple of days, then queue the giddy screaming and pointing that Joe is not a registered voter (He is registered; but who cares? He’d still be a tax payer…), and that is isn’t licensed (he’s not, but isn’t supposed to be — his apprenticeship will allow him to pursue a license after he completes 5 years under his boss… who is licensed).

Explains Michelle Malkin:

“Welcome to Joe the Plumber Derangement Syndrome. If you can’t beat him, smear him. It’s the Obama way.“

Gina Cobb lays out why this path is so treacherous:

“He could have been a transvestite elephant from Lichtenstein and his questions would still have been perfectly valid.

Any attempt to mount personal ad hominem attacks on this person is unethical and politically irrelevant.

And yet, since he said what he said, THOUSANDS of Americans have devoted THOUSANDS of HOURS to, (1) Finding out who this person is, (2) Publishing his address and other personal information on the Internet, (3) attempting to have him fired from his job, (4) attempting to have the Toledo authorities fine him or in other ways punish him legally for certain credentials he may or may not have, (5) digging into his tax files and publishing them in such a way that he cannot defend any of the details, (6) calling him a liar, a fraud, a phony, a tax cheat, and myriad other epithets, (7) enlisting the MSM into this, who then willingly participate in the worst kind of slander, defamation, and yellow journalism against an innocent citizen.

Throughout all this witch hunt, the original questions that this man asked have been virtually ignored.

IF EVER THERE WAS A REASON TO STOP OBAMA, THIS IS IT.  Forget the phony citizenship, the lying, the Black racism, the Muslim connections, the Antisemitism, the arrogance. 

OBAMA MUST BE STOPPED, in the same way that Hitler had to be stopped.  Obama now stands at the head of a vast swarm of the mortal enemies of democracy. Like Hilter, he disavows all responsibility for their actions, while he secretly funds, encourages, and enables them.

Obama DID THIS last night in the debate with McCain.  Obama DISAVOWED ALL responsibility for the actions of ACORN, even though voter fraud and intimidation is obviously a TOOL that his minions are using on a wide scale to hijack the election.  Obama has directly funded ACORN in these efforts.

We are like the German shopkeepers who were harassed by local misfits, petty thieves, and bullies.  The next thing they knew, in almost an eye-blink, these same misfits, petty thieves and bullies were strutting around in Nazi uniforms, beating or killing anyone who had ever said an unkind word to them.

Overnight, after one single election, those misfits and bullies became the law.  Shopkeepers and other citizens who had tried to avoid trouble, and who had simply wanted to be left alone, were soon gone from the population.  It wasn’t just the Jews.  Anyone who stood in the Nazi’s way was killed or imprisoned, and murder was cheaper than imprisonment.

In the USA RIGHT NOW there are  hundreds of thousands, perhaps millions of this type of sycophantic Obama supporters who faun over their leader, who are bereft of morality, lost in their narcissistic, selfish, drug-addled, psychopathic worlds. 

Every country has a lumpen group of violent selfish misfits.  It is a disastrous mistake to let them SEIZE CONTROL OF THE STATE. It is like giving a country to the protagonists in A CLOCKWORK  ORANGE. This is not a race issue, most of these Communist goons are white.  Such people must not be given political power because they will abuse it, and destroy democracy.  They have no idea what democracy or the rule of law actually is.  They only know stolen pleasures, hate and revenge.”

First, a quick reminder about the ‘Evil Bush Tax Cuts’ that Obama wants to roll back:

Please take a moment to see where YOUR FAMILY falls on that chart before proceeding…

Obama wants Americans to fear the McCain economic plan because “he wants to tax your healthcare expenses,” setting aside the fact that before that happens, those same American families will get a boost of $5000.

Obama says that he’ll give a tax break to 95% of working Americans. Um yeeaaah…

From the WJS.com’s ‘Obama’s 95% Illusion: It depends on what the meaning of ‘tax cut’ is.’

One of Barack Obama’s most potent campaign claims is that he’ll cut taxes for no less than 95% of “working families.” He’s even promising to cut taxes enough that the government’s tax share of GDP will be no more than 18.2% — which is lower than it is today.

It’s a clever pitch, because it lets him pose as a middle-class tax cutter while disguising that he’s also proposing one of the largest tax increases ever on the other 5%. But how does he conjure this miracle, especially since more than a third of all Americans already pay no income taxes at all? There are several sleights of hand, but the most creative is to redefine the meaning of “tax cut.”

For the Obama Democrats, a tax cut is no longer letting you keep more of what you earn. In their lexicon, a tax cut includes tens of billions of dollars in government handouts that are disguised by the phrase “tax credit.” Mr. Obama is proposing to create or expand no fewer than seven such credits for individuals:

- A $500 tax credit ($1,000 a couple) to “make work pay” that phases out at income of $75,000 for individuals and $150,000 per couple.

- A $4,000 tax credit for college tuition.

- A 10% mortgage interest tax credit (on top of the existing mortgage interest deduction and other housing subsidies).

- A “savings” tax credit of 50% up to $1,000.

- An expansion of the earned-income tax credit that would allow single workers to receive as much as $555 a year, up from $175 now, and give these workers up to $1,110 if they are paying child support.

- A child care credit of 50% up to $6,000 of expenses a year.

- A “clean car” tax credit of up to $7,000 on the purchase of certain vehicles.

Here’s the political catch. All but the clean car credit would be “refundable,” which is Washington-speak for the fact that you can receive these checks even if you have no income-tax liability. In other words, they are an income transfer — a federal check — from taxpayers to nontaxpayers. Once upon a time we called this “welfare,” or in George McGovern’s 1972 campaign a “Demogrant.” Mr. Obama’s genius is to call it a tax cut.
…
Some families with an income of $40,000 could lose up to 40 cents in vanishing credits for every additional dollar earned from working overtime or taking a new job. As public policy, this is contradictory. The tax credits are sold in the name of “making work pay,” but in practice they can be a disincentive to working harder, especially if you’re a lower-income couple getting raises of $1,000 or $2,000 a year. One mystery — among many — of the McCain campaign is why it has allowed Mr. Obama’s 95% illusion to go unanswered.“ (read the whole article at WSJ.com)

Don’t worry; we’ll kick his @$$ out and have a Democrat in office soon who will FIX all this mess.

UPDATE 081018: Gina Cobb has a notable post up about how (despite the fact that the Dems have been telling us for years how evil Bush’s tax plan has been) Obama plans to take credit for the levels most Americans have enjoyed since Clinton 1.0 was kicked out with the silverware.
