So, I am sitting here watching the news and they are playing yet another stump speech of Obama at Roanoke, VA. Itapos;s like listening to a video tape play. Iapos;ve heard every single one of these lines, from his previous speeches and debates. He never has said anything different. Even his little anecdotal stories, like the pie story, is the same. It kills me. Does he has an original idea? It would seem not? The worst was in the debates. He used the exact same lines, delivered exactly the same way, and people lauded him as being fresh and original. Hmmm...I think not. I wonder why people havenapos;t picked up on this yet? He has learned the art of delivering a well memorized line, as it would seem, but it is still just a memorized line. I find this unattractive.
This election, more than any other, is really irritating me for some reason. People are really going for the jugular on this one, and I am not talking about the politicians. Itapos;s the media, the bloggers, the average person. For example, the Joe the Plumber example. I found the mediaapos;s treatment of this guy deplorable. MSNBC, CNN, and some of the major newspaperapos;s such as the New York Time and the Washington Post were outrageous. Hereapos;s the basic story. Obama went to this guyapos;s neighborhood - he did not seek him out. Obama was knocking on doors in his neighborhood. So, he just asked him a question, which was caught on camera. He is working for a plumbing company. He wants to buy that business eventually but he has studied the tax plans of the two candidates, as an informed voter should, and he surmised that he would be hurt by Obamaapos;s tax plan if he tried to buy this business. The interesting thing to note was this guy is exactly what Obama says he is trying to help - a typical middle class working guy. So, on camera, Obama responds by saying that his tax plan could have helped him five years ago but itapos;s only fair that he get taxed at a higher rate so he can help spread the wealth to the other people who arenapos;t doing as well. Obviously, this caught the attention of a lot of media outlets and then carried over into the presidential debate. Well, then Joe the Plumber came under attack by some of the media and Obamaapos;s camp itself. They claimed he wasnapos;t a real plumber because he wasnapos;t licensed. Umm, he doesnapos;t need to be, just the company he works for. They looked at his tax records. They questioned every detail of his life. I found this attack on him both ugly and unjustified. It is one thing to scrutinize a public official or someone who is running for office. They asked for that kind of scrutiny. It is another to do this to a person that just asked a question. If I ever wanted to know for sure and feel totally comfortable in my vote, this sealed it for me. The media that is questioning Joe the Plumberapos;s background, etc. Is vile. I found that to be an absolutely disgusting display of their resources. I think everyone knows a "Joe the Plumber". Leave him alone is what I say.
