You mean like Cheney was? Oh, that''s right. He broke the law and didn''t get fired even when Bush said he would.

Obama apparently put his foot in his mouth. It happened. So get over it and leave Joe alone.

There is no apparantly about it. Obama, as you so quaintly stated, did put his foot in his mouth by talking about spreading the wealth around. The issue is, Joe used false pretenses to state a position, he got outed, but the Republicans ****** him around the country still...even after poor ole Joe admitted his taxes wouldn''t go up if Obama was elected.

Basically Joe''s argument was: I don''t want to earn 21,000 a month because my taxes may go up a little bit.

Anyone here truly afraid of earning 21,000 or more a month?

So I guess the question remains - do you believe that what Helen Jones-Kelley did was wrong or right?

If McCain would have let Palin alone. She would have ran over Obama boy.

If McCain had have "let Palin alone", she would have looked like an even bigger idiot than she does now.

frankfurt200 - exactly what was the "plumber" a liar about. He worked for a licensed plumber as a plumber. He asked Obama a question, which Obama answered truthfully about distributing the wealth. Then some goon in the state government, a major Obama contributor and supporter goes and decides to be sleazy and start investigating him, abusing her powers. The report confirms that what this hyena did was wrong. I guess the Obama edict is that any time someone challenges Obama, questions him or factually points out negative things about them they''re to be investigated and vilified? This is the same type of trash that happened with Hillary Clinton, Sarah Palin, John McCain. As an Independent I find the Obama approach frightening and anti-democracy and anti-Constitution. So what''s your stink anyway, or is it just your innocuous age?

I still wonder if Obama lied when he said that he sat in Rev. Wright''''s church for 20 years and never heard one word to the effect of G. D. America. I still don''''t believe that.

If I went to a church where the preacher started railing on and on like Rev. Wright with an anti American agenda, I wouldn''''t stay there for 20 years, I''''d walk out in about 2 minutes. And I wouldn''''t drop any money at the door.

I thought we were talking about Joe the Plummer.

But if you must know, I don''t espouse any type of anit-American hate being spewed...by supporters of any party. That being said, I don''t believe the government should alienate them either. Those fringe type folks do enough to alienate themselves.

Poor Joe, he should have been a democrat. He could have had an appointment to the cabinet by now.

Dems are all alike. They say what they think and spew c*r*a*p, but they can''t take it. It''s OK as long as it''s against the other guy.

Democrats = lemmings. Just lead me, I don''t have to think.

What I liked about Sarah Palin, she was a real womam.
Not many real women around these days.

Obviously you don''t know what a REAL woman looks like.

We are totally trying to leave Joe alone. He doesn''t seem to want to be left alone - he''s loving the spotlight, so don''t cry when the light reveals something.

We''re also trying to leave Sarah Palin alone, but she''s not having any of that. I loved the turkey pardon clip yesterday, then the interview in front of the turkey slaughtering station. Hilarious. Is she that clueless, really?

He asked a question based on a lie about himself. The neocons thought they finally found a middle class man that they could use. Nope!

To be honest, it sounds like BS and you don''''t even believe that. I suspect if it was a Republican doing the exact same thing, you would be singing a different tune.

Am I wrong?

Where the hell_ have you been over the last eight years? EVERYONE that has publiclly come out againt Bush has had their loyalty questioned and their credibility undermined. Don''t pretend this is a recent development.

There was no legitimate business purpose for the head of Ohio''s Department of Job and Family Services, Helen Jones-Kelley, to order staff to look up the records, Inspector General Tom Charles said.

Gov. Ted Strickland announced Thursday he was immediately placing Jones-Kelley on a one-month unpaid suspension after reviewing the findings.

GOOD - she deserves this punishment.

Regarding Joe the Plumber and his agenda of lying about being a real plumber, Obama walked down the street, and picked him out and put him in front of the camera, and all Joe did was ask a question in which Obama apparently put his foot in his mouth. It happened. So get over it and leave Joe alone.
