Joe The No Show

Okay by now anyone who is still following this soap opera knows that "Joe The Plumber" did not show up at a McCain rally that McCain thought he would be at and even announced his appearance and called out his name...then, when he realized he was a no show he of course he went for the easy and obvious "well, everyone is Joe The Plumber", well, McCain, we are not. Personally I pay my taxes, use my real name and don't make up stories about owning a plumbing business when I don't even have a license. But that's just me. And of course the official word from the campaign is that Joe The Plumber is just a metaphor and not a real person...what? Oh, he must be from that fake part of America that y'all keep talking about.

And as usual, following the lead of the McCain campaign, supporters are already accusing (in this case "pre-accusing!) how all the wacky Obama supporters are going to react to this and manipulate, twist and contort this event...or non event into something more than it was or wasn't. Here is a prime example:

Things happen. Its not a big deal but of course Obama supporters will try and make it a big deal. Its not like McCain did not show up or Palin - give me a break folks.

Its better that happens than watching that 30 minute Obama clip last night. It was downright strange. Obama should have had a "live" 30 minute infocommercial with people being able to talk to him and see him in person. Obviously he does not want anyone to be able to ask him anything. Another thing about Obama to be concerned about - he is not available to the public. Creepy - solcialist type of behaviour - scary. He is sneaky and controlling. He is someone to be afraid of if given power to America that is for sure.

Okay let's break this bullshit down point by point...

Things happen. Its not a big deal but of course Obama supporters will try and make it a big deal. Its not like McCain did not show up or Palin - give me a break folks.

I doubt it. But we already know, based on past incidents, that if this was to happen to Obama that the next day McCain would have an ad out, or Palin would be at a rally questioning Obama's ability to run the country based on this one, little, insignificant event. You know it's true. That's a conservative tactic. Take one thing that has nothing to do with the other and blame it on that or make some kind of abstract connection.

Its better that happens than watching that 30 minute Obama clip last night. It was downright strange. Obama should have had a "live" 30 minute infocommercial with people being able to talk to him and see him in person. Obviously he does not want anyone to be able to ask him anything.

Didn't see the Obama "clip" so I can't really comment on that but he already did the "live" thing. It was called the debate when people from the audience asked both candidates questions. People have been talking to and seeing him in person going on two years now. His campaign is not the one who coined the term "gotcha question". He is not the one that whines about being asked the "wrong questions" and refusing to do interviews and shit...why don't you give us a break.

Another thing about Obama to be concerned about - he is not available to the public. Creepy - solcialist type of behaviour - scary. He is sneaky and controlling. He is someone to be afraid of if given power to America that is for sure.

Yeah, out of the two campaigns it has been the Obama ticket that has been "unavailable" to the public, yeah sure that's it. Haha. As far as "socialist type behavior", socialism is not just "sharing" (like that's a bad thing) or just about "spreading the wealth" because if it was then America is already socialist and it has been for a long time...if he or she pays taxes then by their reasoning they are participating in socialism.
