When the Tables Turn

So what happens when the tables turn and Joe Biden is the one asked the hard questions?



He gets pissed and acts like a jerk with the reporter. Wow, can you imagine if he had to sit through the interviews that Sarah Palin has had to. Or if Sarah Palin had behaved this way for an interview?
And how does the campaign respond? By denying access to the Senator's wife who was supposed to have an interview with the same station later, according to Hal Boedeker.

I especially loved the part when he said that whoever was elected president Obama "and/or" McCain, would be tested? And/or? OK Senator.

Updated to add: I found this article from another journalist that thinks the media bias is ridiculous. It's a little long but really worth reading.

Who Watches this Garbage

The hags on the view strike again. But this time they had Bill O'Reilly on and he held his own against these wind bags:

Part 1


and Part 2


I love how O'Reilly picks on the way they acted when McCain came in, especially Joy and Babawawa. Of course Joy had to put a jab in against Fox News. That is so old already! And Sherri bringing up that Obama is crying that Fox News isn't toeing his line. Fox News is the only News Outlet that is not worshiping at the shrine of Obama, so what get over it!
And what is up with Barbara making a big deal about the way Bill treated Elmer Fudd when he was on a few weeks back? He deserved it and more for what he did but she and that insufferable Joy were all up in arms over it. They really need to take a look at what is going on.
I think it would do them good to read Orson Scott Card's article Would the Last Honest Reporter Please Turn on the Lights? I highly recommend this article, everyone should read it.

And while we are watching clips here is John Murtha sticking his other foot in his mouth when he tried to clear up his racist comment:


By the way, I'm now listening to Hannity and Colmes playing on my TV and they are talking about Murtha's "redneck" comment and Alan Colmes is trying to rationalize it. He's just asked the guy running against him if maybe in the past there were rednecks in that area so it's actually true. Is he serious? OK I will be the first to admit that my husband is a redneck, his neck couldn't be any more red. LOL and no he's not voting for Obama but not because he's a racist (because he's not) he's not voting for him because he doesn't like his policies, especially when it comes to the military and especially the whole pull out of Iraq in 16 months. He believes that by giving them a date when most of our guys (and gals) are out of there we are giving the terrorists a date. They will know that all they have to do is lay low until said date and then unleash when our military is at it's weakest there and then what? Do we start over from where we were pre-surge, and lose more lives? It would be like taking two steps forward and then ten steps back.
But I digress. I am so sick of these politicians labeling people that are not supporting the chosen one as racist, redneck (like it's a bad thing!), intolerant. (By the way Pennsylvanians you are now racist, gun-toting, bible thumping, intolerant rednecks). I've posted some articles before and you can do a search and find thousands of articles, most claiming that John McCain and Sarah Palin are racist for a variety of reason, they winked, he said socialist, she said terrorist and on and on. Well I think Joe Biden said it perfectly when he said they protest too much:



And while he is talking about walking like a duck and talking like a duck and all that then how about Ayers, Wright, Rezko and the rest?
I thought this little clip was good at highlighting that:

Sure Joe let's bring that up.

A Couple of Clips

Here is a funny one. Notice what the guy calls Biden when he's introduced LOL:



And speaking of Biden, listen to what he had to say:



He guarantees there is going to be a crisis within the first 6 months of an Obama presidency? If there isn't a better reason to vote for McCain then I don't know what. Like I've been saying for month, we aren't going to need any of the crap Obama promises us if we are blown to bits. And now his runing mate is promising us a crisis within 6 months? That's just scary. Actually I don't think I want to have to wait the 6 months, vote McCain and we probably won't get blown up.

Take that Foot Out of Your Mouth

So people of PA aren't just bitter gun toting, bible thumpers, according to Murtha they are also racist. OK. Nice. He represents these people??
Why is it the dems that keep bringing up the issue of race, from the nominee on down.

This clip is absolutely classic!



How can these people trash Sarah Palin and call her dumb and an idiot when this guy can't even count to 4?


And I found this parody which is totally worth the watch, it's really funny:



And today I felt the need to send an email to Shep Smith again. To let him know what a moron he can be sometimes. He did some idiotic little bit making light (and fun) of "Joe the Plumber" and at the end he says that Joe isn't really a plumber cause he works for someone who is and that Joe isn't even his real name. So I had to point out the fact that just because he works for someone that's a plumber doesn't mean he's not a plumber himself and that Joe is his middle name so what sense does it make for a man who goes by his middle name to point out that another man that goes by his middle name doesn't go by his "real name". I used to think Shep was the cat's meow but lately I can't stand to watch him. Seems like since the economic crisis started he's been nothing but doom and gloom and he's gone downhill from there. to be honest I haven't even watched him in a couple of weeks because I just can't stomach him anymore. The only reason he was on tonight is because I flipped the news on out of habit. And that came on within 5 minutes. How typical. I used to think he was fair at reporting the news but now he sticks in his two cents more and more and he's starting to sound like all the others. When he used to say he doesn't have a horse in this race I believed him but lately, I don't believe that anymore.

I also made sure to point out that like the rest of the MSM he is completely missing the point of the exchange and that is Obama's socialist plan of "spreading the wealth around". That's a perfectly valid point that should be the focus and not these attacks on Joe. It's typical, they've been doing it for how long now, here is someone that came out and publicly pointed out what Obama was doing and what do they do? They attack him and try to discredit him. But the fact still remains that Obama wants to "spread the wealth around". Of course now he says that he was misunderstood. Yes of course he was, that's what he told him that's what he explained to him but yet he was misunderstood. I don't buy that for a minute.

That's not the job I want! and other stuff...

Did you hear about what Biden said at a Rally in Ohio today? You can read the whole story here, but here are some highlights:

Democratic vice presidential candidate Joe Biden said Wednesday that Barack Obama's plan to rebuild the nation's crumbing roads and bridges would help reverse the loss of 240,000 jobs in Ohio during the Bush years.

Biden told an audience in this economically distressed battleground state that the Democratic presidential candidate's public works projects would create 2 million jobs nationwide, including 76,000 new jobs for the middle class in Ohio.

LOL OK if I lose my job I don't want to work building roads. By the way I don't know about your part of the country but where I live, when you pass these road projects it's about 90% Mexicans working out there. Let's face it it's hard work out in the elements with speeding traffic whizing by and little pay to boot. Not very desirable.

Biden said McCain and his vice presidential running mate, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, don't understand the plight of struggling Ohioans, and he decried the fact that the median income of a middle class family in the state has dropped $2,000 in the last eight years

Well, according the the US Census Bureau the median income in Ohio in 1999 was $40,956, and the average median income for the years 2006-2007 was $48,151. And according to the department of labor the average yearly pay for road workers: $30,118.40. So according to this every point he made here is false. And by THE ONE's plan median income really would go down.

He compared a tax rebate from the stimulus package to a check that Alaska residents receive each year from the state government, a stipend from the proceeds of the state's more than $30 billion oil-rich investment account.

"If a $1000 rebate is good enough for them in Alaska, it sure as heck good enough for the people of southern Ohio," he said.

OK I think Gov. Palin needs to go ahead and thank him for this. That's right she did such a good job in Alaska that her people got this surplus back. Wow imagine that, instead of pouring all that money into the system she was able to give it back to the people.
Senator Biden is RIGHT the people of Ohio should get a $1000 rebate from the government. EVERYONE in America deserves to get $1000 back from the government every year. Gov. Palin has already proven she could do it for her state, she needs to show Washington how to do it for everyone! That's the type of person that we need as VP and with McCain's attitude towards pork, we could get somewhere here.

He also criticized Republican candidate John McCain's idea for the federal government to spend $300 billion to buy distressed mortgages at full face value and renegotiate them at a reduced price.

OK let me start by saying that I don't think this is the greatest idea ever but it's better than Obama's plan of a 90-day moratorium on foreclosures. So after the 90-days then what? Oh yeah, that's right, those people that couldn't afford their houses before, still can't afford them after 90 days and they get foreclosed. Nice try though.
