...Whether it was Joe the Plumber or John Wayne Gacy, Richard Speck, Ghengis Khan or Bozo the Clown who asked Obama the question, the verity of his reply is not changed

Bravo.

There are Libs in my office taking great pleasure in the ad-hominem that has taken place on old "Joe"

I'd remind them that, as you say, the reason the dialogue was newsworthy was not the character of the man asking the question, but the character of the man who answered the question; but, I'm tired of the vacant stares I receive when I mention the Emperor has no clothes...

Obama himself attacked Joe today. McCain's defense of Joe is more than admirable.

The difficulty with McCain making this particular criticism is that just two weeks ago he voted along with Obama for $700 billion worth of wealth redistribution, and now he's calling for even more.

M, that (and many, many other reasons) is why this election is the most deplorable in which I have ever participated. May God have mercy on us all.
