Enraged Leftwing Blogosphere Hurls Attacks Against Joe the Plumber
NewsBusters ^ | October 16, 2008 | P.J. Gladnick

Posted on 10/16/2008 10:25:41 AM PDT by PJ-Comix

Joe the Plumber (Joe Wurzelbacher) seems to have committed a Thought Crime in the eyes of the leftwing Blogosphere by daring to question the Lightworker. As a result, and because his name was brought up several times by John McCain at the debate last night, Joe the Plumber has been the subject of a lot of rage at both the Democratic Underground and the Daily Kos. The title of the DU thread alone tells you just how angry the left is: "Hey, Joe 'The Dumbass' Plumber. Listen up!" And the Daily Kos thread is flat out incorrect: "'Joe the Plumber'" Not a Registered Voter." Sorry, Kossacks, but Joe the Plumber is registered to vote. He just prefers to use his middle name but you were too eager to smear him to consider that fact when poring through the Ohio voting records. Here is a sampling of leftwing anger directed at Joe the Plumber starting with the Democratic Underground:

So, Joe the Plumber. If you are too damned stupid to understand how Obama benefits you much more than McCain, then throw the American dream away and vote for McCain.

Sorry, I know this is stereotyping but he looks jackbootish to me...

Have we found out yet that McCain paid this goof to ask Obama about his taxes? If so, I missed it so far. If not, I would not be surprised if we hear about that shortly.

Joe the Plumber was a republican plant. OBVIOUS. Cameras ready. Gotcha moment. Then use in debate. Toss "joe" (wow, another Joe, how curious) on the day after morning shows. Nearly perfect ....... but too obvious. Joe listens to way too much talk radio. Too many rw talking points.

We need to pray for the continued safety of Joe the Plumber and his entire family. The hate-mongering on the left is no longer bubbling under the surface; they will be even more determined to intimidate Joe and others like him until they get their way. I never thought I’d have to worry about just going to the polls and voting, but I believe the environment indicates a clear and present danger. God save us!

I am beginning a dossier of MSM tools and arrests, not convictions, but arrests and charges. Let these people learn, if they play with a hornets nest; they will get stung.

“Bad news, we are full steam ahead on the track to become Soviet Union come November. “


And now we are beginning to see how the concept from Bible related prophecies, that the United States goes against Israel, comes about.

Joe the Plumber was a republican plant.

Even if this is true, it was Obama who utterly the 'spread the wealth' nonsense. They only have their own candidate to blame.

“...May all of their toilets back up and into their halls while every “dumb” Joe plumber refuses to work on it for them so then they can find out just how dumb Joe is!...”

We had a similar situation here several years ago.

I ‘trial lawyer’ was suing any local doctor he could find. Things settled down when he realized he and his family couldn’t find a doctor to take them as patients.

LOL!

From du:”If the company were to make more than 250,000 a year, say 280,000 a year, this would not mean the owner would be taxed on that amount. Even if he were to be taxed on 280,000 a year, a 3% tax increase (39% - 36%) on $30,000 (280,000 - 250,000) would only be $900. “
Huh?

I think Joe the Plumber just tossed the One Ring into the flames of Liberal Mt. Doom.

That is THE metaphor for this election. Again, we see that history often turns on the action of one individual. Never surrender.

Neoliberalsim is a mental disorder. It is on display on steroids in the media and on the web, and Middle America is seeing it now for what it is, as we are seeing the results of decades of neoliberal Marxist-social experimentation. Their queer house is falling in on them, as is natural.

Actually, he threw Obambi into the terrible eruption of Mt. Wannahockalugie. The Obamahdi (THAT one) can’t even stand up to the bubbles produced by an aquarium aerator!

The left can’t seem to stand the average, hard-working, intelligent, white guys.

I think they are prejudiced, and slightly racist.

The wicked get so upset when the light of truth is shown on them.

Face it, lefties, you’re socialists and fascists. You hide your ideology behind words like “fairness” and “social justice”, but your ideology is simply totalitarian fascism.

And when someone slips, or someone causes your guy to slip, you get screeching angry that you’ve been exposed.

“They only have their own candidate to blame.”


Yes. How odd that when the ‘left’ is asked a logical question, and they give a truthful answer, that somehow they were ‘tricked’ into it.

Couldn’t Obama ‘handle’ this question, even if it was planted?

If not, he shouldn’t be President.

Heeheehee. I just couldn’t get over how much Obama reminded me of that cheesy ShamWow guy during last night’s debate.
