If this is the standard ("routine checks ... when someone suddenly emerges in the limelight") for prying into someone''''s background I would not want to live in Ohio. God help the person who wins a lottery, becomes a star athlete, selected school teacher of the year, or any other actions that pushes them into the limelight.

You made a Fraud and Liar into a Hero.
You asked this Fraud and Liar his opinion and advice.
You are the craziest people.
His rights were violated?????
You validated and made a hero out of a Fraud and Liar.
You are the biggest jokes on the planet and any media that validated this nut.

Obama will definitely give her a position in his administration. She is perfect for him.

And now "Joe" is considered to be something of a boob....

Far from it. This "boob" as you call him, got Obama to admit what his redistribution of wealth plans were. Ha ha ha.

Seriously? You don''t know?

"This will make it impossible to buy the business..."

Oh, yeah, seeing how he didn''t have either a plumbing nor even a business license.

"Taxes wah wah wah"

Yeah, wah wah wah because he owes back taxes.

"I''m a plumber..."

Yeah, and Sarah Palin is a Russian linguistics professor.

If Republicans have to resort to a deadbeat lying loser to be their ideological front man, then it''s no wonder they lost big time.

LOL! If Joe the Plumber were a household product he would be pitched by the nefarious spokesman Billy Mays

"To begin with, he is NOT a licensed plumber, but an apprentice. Secondly, he did not try to buy his bosses business as he alleged."

He never said he was a licensed plumber and only said he was thinking of buying the business. Quit making things up.

Since Ohio''s Department of Job and Family Services, Helen Jones-Kelley wishes to investigate people in the spotlight - perhaps we can all assist and post things here.
Starting points
- She resides in Clayton, Ohio with her husband, Tom, has four daughters, one of whom she fostered and a step-son.

Someone give me the link to all the freebies Obama''''s going to hand out. I want my something for nothing today!

HA!

Don''t worry Masses10, nobody is going to take your money. If Republicans have demonstrated anything it is that their claim that deficits%u2019 don''t matter is absolutely true. Obama will simply print more money (ala Bush) and hand it out to the citizenry instead of Halliburton, Exxon and Blackwater

It is easy to see that most of these Obama supporters have been brainwashed. Most of them are beyond help...

Someone has been brain washed, that''s for sure. Have you looked in a mirror lately?

just hope that most people do not see the attack of a private citizen for political gain as a "public service"!

I''m an Obama supporter that fully agrees with you on this point. Partisan politics and the mis-use of public trust must be punished, regardless of which party you''re on. Just because our side won this election doesn''t mean we should do what''s been done to us. It''s time to play fair again.

No legitimate business purpose for looking at the records means Helen Jones-Kelley should be fired!

Nope, it won''t. She performed a public service. Job well done! She probably could use the month''s vacation anyway.

Can anyone here explain how Joe the Plumber is a "Liar"? He asked Obama whether his tax policies would hurt him IF he bought his boss''''s business and became a small business owner. How is that lying? Oh wait. I''''m sorry. I forgot. The left is free to distort any situation until they can just keep shouting "Liar!" and ignore the underlying questions raised.
