A Truthful Answer to a Simple Question

Not only is it frowned upon to openly attack The Obama, but it is equally discouraged to sneakily ask The Obama a question that gets him to drop his shield of electability long enough to give a frank answer.

Joe Wurzelbacher, or Joe the Plumber, made that mistake this weekend in Ohio. Had The Obama answered Joe's concerns in his normal lawyerspeak of obfuscation there would be no in depth investigations led by the mass media into Joe's eligibility to vote, his taxes, his salary, his divorce, his licensure, or his desire to buy a company. He would not be mocked by the Huffington Post, be the subject of sneering remarks by Joe Biden, or be singled out as someone that business owners simply cannot relate to.

Not since Sarah Palin's tanning bed has the press been so riveted on the important issues so relevant to both VP candidacies and the building trades.

In fact, Joe's personal background has been delved into almost as completely by the mass media as has Bill Ayers' background, and the last time I checked, Toledo isn't even in The Obama's neighborhood. The MSM are so busy falling all over each other looking for dirt on Joe that the focus of their investigation has largely skipped over the answer to the question that Joe posed.

It was Obama's answer that is important, not that a common Joe finally asked the question.

Spreading the wealth for the common good has a familiar ring, doesn't it. But, let's not pay any attention to the man sitting behind that curtain.
