Joe The Plumber Hits Back At Media On Huckabee Show

Joe meet Huck:


The left’s vicious attack on Joe is still nothing short of startling, and while they accuse him of being something of an attention-whore, I actually think that by attacking him the left shined more of a spotlight on him than he would have had otherwise.
Obama’s been allowed to lie about his associations with William Ayers. Ethical violations shady dealings from his past have gone unreported. But Joe asks The One, the media’s candidate of choice, a tough question and suddenly every detail about his life is national news.

    Kenny. May I rub it in without your snarly remark?

  • http://insanereindeer.blogspot.com/ Kenny

    I told you the same day you said no tv appearences for “Joe” that you were wrong. Now you are not allowing me to gloat. Shame.

    Except I wasn’t wrong. I said nothing like you’re pretending. http://sayanythingblog.com/entry/pro_obama_group_launches_attack_adtargetting_joe_the_plumber/#c357035

    Cindy chose to be in the national spotlight, and did A LOT to make it happen. She sought the attention, and has ran with it ever since. (She STILL won’t go away.) Joe asked a question in his driveway, and except for two interviews in which he was asked, first about his comments, then about being used in the debates, he has kept to himself. He hasn’t sought fame. That’s a HUGE difference.

    So I pointed out that Joe had indeed been interviewed AFTER the incident twice (I didn’t know about the Huckabee one, so it was actually three times). Where was he interviewed? On TV you say? And I acknowledged that? You can apologize now you dishonest broad.

    Of course I’m not going to let you gloat. You aren’t right.

    I say that IF the unFairness doctrine gets enacted the right side of the blogosphere needs to join in with complaint after complaint. I would consider it much as an internet denial of service defense.

    Choke up the system so the jack booted thugs enforcing the unFairness Doctrine has a huge backlog.

    Hey Kenny! No TV appearences huh?

  • di butler

    I think we all feel this way, right?

    That is the true genius of America — a faith in simple dreams, an insistence on small miracles. That we can tuck in our children at night and know that they are fed and clothed and safe from harm. That we can say what we think, write what we think, without hearing a sudden knock on the door. That we can have an idea and start our own business without paying a bribe. That we can participate in the political process without fear of retribution, and that our votes will be counted, at least, most of the time.

    From Barack Obama’s Keynote Address 2004

    I guess he changed his mind.

  • Jerry

    Joe the Plumber…

    A “Real” guy!

    Pay attention America.

    You dissent could be dangerous to Powerful people.

  • Jerry

    COMMON!!!!!….

    For all his Charisma, Charm, Eloquence, Articulation and the “Electrifying”(Uncle Colin) nature of a Black President..

    Obama’s going to RAISE TAXES!! No two ways about it! He’s going to “SPREAD THE WEALTH”..

    Joe, just asked an articulate, thoughtful question of his OWN.
    And, If he wasn’t DEAD-ON with it, the Media would have ignored him.
    No 100′s of Reporters. No TV Vans. No Helecopters. NOTHING!

  • ews48

    If you tax Joe the Plumber 3% more, Joe is going to raise his prices 5% more and everyone, including the poor, will pay the tax for him after our income has already been taxed. That’s the way it works. We pay all the taxes no matter where they’re collected from.

    Joe has now been called uneducated and witless by Obama supporters and ridiculed by Obama in public. Joe wasn’t getting ready to buy a business and he knew that the business didn’t make $250K per year. The minute the educated and witty Obama said. “spread the wealth around”, he was had by Joe the Plumber and he knows it now. Spreading the wealth around is what Stalin’s and Mao’s intellectual elite supporters used to talk about just before they starved millions of people.

    Hey Kenny! No TV appearences huh?

    Shrug, the dude’s having his name dragged through the mud for no reason. He’s not allowed to defend himself? Really? That’s your bullshit argument? Him defending himself is paramount to being an attention whore?

    There is a difference between making oneself a public figure and being made one. Seeking attention vs getting attention. It’s a simple difference, and I know you get it…but you’re too much of a partisan loser to admit you’re wrong.

    You’re a moron, E.

    Thank McCain for making Joe a star, he’s the one who brought him up umpteen times during the last debate.

    As usual name calling by the left and no real facts to back anything they say up , I may ask any one if they might be tempted to go an national TV and address the problem of hound dog reporters looking at a citizen closer then they did Obama. It was a character assassination pure and simple and yes McCain used him because Joe the plumber outed Obama for being a socialist and a Marxist. so you want socialism this is what socialism will do to you and every one else . no work no money no jobs and no taxes . no one will have anything and will be living under bridges . I expect I will be called names , it does not bother me I consider the source and go on .

  • sc

    This is scary. YOU ask a simple question and you get a radical answer and now the left has to tear YOU down to save their candidate. The NY Times is going after McCain’s wife, but not Obama’s and they shouldn’t be going after either. Every citizen, including a couple of bloggers who are knocking Joe the Plumber, should be concerned. Even Obama and Biden got their jabs in against this guy. Sad state of affairs.

    Yeah, over 100 media reps in his front yard and Jo is responsible for appearing on TV and an attention whore?

    You small-minded punks.

  • ellinas

    welder4. Ken, you, like me, have your mind set as to whom is responsible for the mess. But aside from politics, and the desire to fix fault with the “other side” can you say with certainty that our only problem is the policy decisions of the Democrats? Have you questioned your self as to whether this massive borrowing is good for us? Could it be that we are drowning in debt? Could it be the “whiz-kids” of Wall St. sold us short and made of with billions? I hear that the CEO of one failed Wall St. brokerage/investment bank made $400,000,000 million. That is $400 million. Where were the regulators? Have you forgotten that ex senator Phil Gramm, did push for deregulation of the markets, and to a large degree was succesfull? Have you asked your self how is it is possible to loan money to someone, make money of the loan, sell that loan to someone else, the next person takes their cut off that same loan and turns around and sells the same loan to somene else? The loan has not realized it’s full potential yet but the hyenas and vultures have started feeding off that baby. How is it possible, and where is the money coming from when they cash that loan in five years? That loan will take 20, 25, 30, or maybe even 40 years to be payed off. Yet people were/are collecting upfront. Well, with no money in the pot this ponzi scheme was doomed to failure form the start. And it did. And you and I are paying it.

  • richNJ

    Obama needs our money to beef up the police so they can properly go after traitors like Joe the Plumber. Asking a question that embarasses a future king in front of his subjects (the MSM)is not exceptable. Keep it up Joe…the only ammo they got is to go after you…the cannot dispute anything with facts. So they go after a persons character. After all, you apparently have more character than the ones attacking you so they dislike that.

  • welder4

    I would go so far as to say there are already plans to do just that, bog them down and cost them money it cost nothing for the complainer but the air time is free unless they change that in the law .That is what they are planning I am sure that they are looking to make the one asking for equal time to pay the bill . Certainly I know that the left leaning news is in denial of their liberal leanings , someone did a study and found that all of the Obama news casters don’t think they are liberal . So now Obama says if Fox news were not in the news business he would be running away with the election , maybe?maybe not . I still don’t see how people can be so blind to his ideas of Marxism .

  • richNJ

    What amazes me is the attack by the left are ALL personnel. Very few facts are every given in an arguement. I have never seen a race so grounded in how one feels instead of facts. It is like the saturday morning cartoon characters have come alive.

    I love your signature the last one where people seem bright until you hear them speak , I hope I am not one of them , sometimes we can’t see our own failings I guess it is a safety net . I do say with confidence that Obama is not qualified to be a dog catcher much less the president of the largest free nation in the entire world .The news is upset because of the answer Obama gave to Joe , it is revealing to say the least he is a Marxists and will destroy this country.

  • ellinas

    Hey Kenny! No TV appearences huh?

  • richNJ

    I can give you partial credit for the answer that it would backfire on most of the MSM. But to go along with what you suggest you have to believe that the MSM knows that it is on the Liberal side. I think most, meaning 90% of the MSM, believe they are the pulse of the nation and would not agree with you. That they need to be more balanced.

    The “Joes” of America have not benefitted under Bush and the Republicans. Witness the national debt, the budget deficit, the trade deficit, and the enrichment of the few at the expense of the many. The above are facts and the feeling the people are expressing is anger.

  • ellinas

    welder4. The election will show who the people blame. Right now, it is the republicans and their failed policies. I’d rather tax and spend than borrow and spend. At least being taxed up front, I don’t have to pay interest later as is the case with what your party of choice has done.

  • welder4

    uncle Colin is a stretch on racism but that is to be expected of the biggest racist of all ,the democrat party.

  • welder4

    ellinas: party of choice surely you jest , it is the democrats who were responsible for the mess on wall street , loaning money to people who could not pay it back the democrats savior Raines cooking the books so he walks with 60 million and we foot the bill, 17 times the Republicans tried to get a handle on the Fannie and Freddie and 17 times the democrats could only tell them what a great job Mr. Raines was doing (Maxine Waters communist thug)so lets see now the democrats are responsible for 700 billion in bail out money just to two banks not counting the others that they screwed up and you are going to vote for a guy who would bring us to the point of no jobs no money and no taxes yep that really is smart. Obama is into voter fraud , he is into Marxism he is into being the king he wants to be a citizen of the world , he is an empty suit , no and h– no I will not vote for a communist sob.

  • ellinas

    look for some bad times when the one is in office. We have a democrat congress and the questions you ask of me would be better directed at the democrat congress .

    welder4 on October 21, 2008 at 01:34 pm

    No matter who is president, or who controls congress we are headed for some rough times.

  • welder4

    ellinas : you have to look at who will do the least damage, Obama would totally bring us down at least McCain has ideas that will keep us afloat . killing babies is not my style and when they are out side the body of the woman I really get sick thinking about it . I take it you could go to a baby laying in a hall way and chop their head off and walk away with out so much as losing a wink of sleep . If you can, vote for Obama because you are a lost cause any way . Abortion is not a procedure, it is flat out murder .

  • welder4

    Actually all democrats and all republicans are not responsible for the mess , but I would take my chances with the republicans rather then the democrats who are planning to ban oil drilling as soon as the one wins ,If he does. Are you saying the the speaker of the house has no mental problems?I must also go with 17 times they tried to put regulation on the Banks but the democrats hollered bloody murder and said Raines was doing a fine job, (Maxine Waters) the pure socialist . The democrat party has went to the dogs ( communism ) and if you can not see that you are blind . I am not a rich man by no means but I have had a great time with my life . I have enough I never desired to be rich , but for those who do want to be I say have at it . the government is no place to get rich or should not be . National health care will be as big a night mare as it has been in all the other countries that have went that way , no one gets medical help on time. Obama has so much baggage I would not vote for him for dog catcher ,it is a priority here and nothing more . The UK is giving bonuses to doctors that do not send their patients to the hospital , great oath there right ? By the way I have already voted so you will be wasting your time convincing me that the democrats are honest people . Obama’s VP said it best we can not afford on the job training for our president, and that we will have a international occurrence that will test Obama’s mettle , he has none so what’s to test. McCain will not be tested for they fear his response . All I can do is spread the word and if you or any one else picks it up fine but to those who do not, look for some bad times when the one is in office. We have a democrat congress and the questions you ask of me would be better directed at the democrat congress .

  • welder4

    the unfairness doctrine could back fire on the news media , the ones espousing pure liberal doctrine may have to ante up time for a right wing rebuttal, so they have to rethink it or write it where no rebuttals are to had against left wing ideas.

  • ellinas

    welder4. It may surprise you but I am against abortion. I believe in the sanctity of life. I could not do the things you say I am capable of doing. I believe in the sanctity of life. I also happen to believe that the abortion issue is something best left out of politics. It is between God, the abortionist and the woman that allows her baby to be aborted. I am also anti death penalty for in my view it serves no purpose other than revenge, which is against Christian teachings. I am not against teaching religion in public schools. I am surprised that you would take such a dim view of me, and try to fry me with right wing cliches.I am a more complicated person that you make me to be.

  • richNJ

    What scares me more about this election is Obama getting a Congress that is veto proof. I am trying to find out what the congressional makeup was during Carter’s and Johnsons’s term. Carter had great plans but I think it was balanced by more Republicans in congress, while LBJ may have had a more free hand. Not sure yet, have to do the research.
    LBJ’s changes are just a drop in the bucket compared to what is on BO’s list. Without a counter-balance we are going to be heading into changes that will take years and years to fix. Starting with the muzzling of the right with the Fair Doctine legislation. Which is so anti-free speech it stalinistic.

    (Uncle Colin)

    Wow, good thing I’m not drinking every time I run across a racist on this board, I’d be at the ER with alcohol poisoning. Yikes.

  • welder4

    so what are we to do elect an inexperienced person and one that has communist back ground ? that is sort of ignorant to me . No thanks I will vote for someone who has an American theme to his ticket and not one that says he will stand with the Muslims if things go bad .Frank Marshall Davis , card carrying communist mentored Obama in his younger years ,Bill Ayers introduced him to the world as the best thing since sliced bread , Ayers said after 9/11 he did not bomb enough , he is still close friends with Obama . His accepting money from the mac’s and the Mae CEO’s and just so many things that he is unacceptable to me . 33 million dollars in fraud campaign funds from over seas , should be enough to disqualify him it does with me . The republicans did pretty good until the democrats took the house in 2006 and in two years they managed to mess it up, check out them protecting Raines on utube ,…. the republicans wanted to put regulation on them and the democrats had a hissy fit . no no way .
