"You know, when you can't ask a question of your leaders anymore, that gets scary,"

Nah Joe. Its only the democrats and their supporters.... You know, the MSM, Big Ed and those oh so righteous "community organizing" and activist groups, who dont like it when you ask questions. Specifically those questions they dont want to directly answer. You see, thats when they decide to attack the irrelevant aspects of things. Thats when they dig into the life of an ordinary guy instead of simply addressing the fact and issue at hand. Its pathetic actually but then again not completely out of form from those who wish to rule you. You think this is bad Joe? Wait until the democrats socialize health care or have completely squashed free speech through the fairness doctrine or even worse.... Just wait until they start to dig right into your back pocket for your money so they can then turn around and decide who is more "worthy" of getting YOUR money then you.

Joe is symbolic of many poor GOPer. Complain about taxes but pay none. They suck off the real middle class tax payers. GOP feeds them this nonsense, but they, lacking an eductions can't and don't understand that they are being used.

At least he got Obama to finally utter his "spread the wealth" opinion in front of the general electorate.

Karl Marx would have been proud. Marx's statement of the creed in the 'Critique of the Gotha Program' is as follows:

"In a higher phase of communist society, after the enslaving subordination of the individual to the division of labor, and therewith also the antithesis between mental and physical labor, has vanished; after labor has become not only a means of life but life's prime want; after the productive forces have also increased with the all-around development of the individual, and all the springs of co-operative wealth flow more abundantly—only then can the narrow horizon of bourgeois right be crossed in its entirety and society inscribe on its banners: From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs!"

See any similarities in these opinions?

America better wakeup, and smell what's being shoveled!

When you ask an Obama supporter a question your a racist. Free speech is going away because of the race card that's always played. Obama has no ability and therefore it's his only way of doing things. Bring on the class warfare!! Ultimately we will win because we are the educated, the workers, the earners, and the fighters in this country.

Yeah and I'll bet if you lived in Idaho that you would vote for Craig. How can you support a bunch of ignorant hypocritical idiots like McCain and Failin? It is sad that you are so brain washed and ignorant of the true facts. I won't keep you from your restroom stall any longer.

"...lacking an eductions..." from a poster calling himself/herself "GOP for Dummies." Priceless.

Scary?? Try researching Joe Vogler, the raging anti-American who founded the Alaska Independence Party. The same secessionist party that Palin's husband, Todd, belonged to 1994-2002 and that she sent a shout-out to this year.("Keep up the good work," Palin told AIP members. "And God bless you.")

AIP chairwoman Lynette Clark said recently that Sarah Palin is her kind of gal. "She's Alaskan to the bone ... she sounds just like Joe Vogler." So who are these America-haters that the Palins are pallin' around with? Look at salon.com AND Wikipedia:

Priceless! GOP = moronic racist. "Obama is arab." "No he is not. He is a decent family man." Tell me that isn't GOP racism at its finest!

So if you are Arab, you can't be a decent family man.

Yeah, I saw Ben Affleck say that on Bill Maher's show the other night, too.

Joe cannot win this debate. It was pointed out to me many years ago that you never argue with a person that buys newsprint by the trainload. Joe just was welcomed into the campaign of 2008 by the very unbiased press. He questioned "The Messiah". How dare he do that ? Now they will send out the attack dogs and find out what kind of underwear Joe uses. Never do anything to bring out any flaw in "That One !"
Joe should quit while he is ahead.

If a liberal looks at this article, what does he/she think ?
The press is just doing their job. Of course. The same way that they do when someone questions a program of McCain's or Palin's. I'm still waiting for those investigations to unfold. I know they are coming because the press would NEVER show partiality towards any one candidate. Would they ?

The only ignorance I see is you making assumptions about me that you have NO WAY of supporting other then by your own need to ditract from the true issues and topics. Hmmm, just as you liberals did with "Joe". Who would have thought.

Ya, just vote for the best candidate.

Too bad the best candidates want nothing to do with politics, they're probably too honest.

Well, if Ben Affleck said it, it MUST be True!

If it was cablecast nationally, then IT HAS GOT TO BE TRUE!!!

Hm. Which is worse: a Republican who refuses to pay unjust taxes or a Liberal Democrat who takes money out of the public coffers?

Who made that famous statement that when the people begin voting themselves from the treasury, then they are on the verge of surrendering their liberty for tyranny?

How is it that Obamaites are so bent about Joe when they turn a blind eye to Obama's marxist response?
Why don't you liberals just come out of the closet and admit you hate the economic/political system set up via the Constitution and want to impose a socialist regime?
