		<description>&lt;p&gt;I’m wondering if, maybe, jus maybe…the Obama campaign didn’t set this thing up to “punk” McCain.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Imagine if they knew that there was a guy related to Keating -McCain associated Robert M. Wurzelbacher in this Toledo neighborhood. Maybe there’s some Obama supporter nearby who knows about this guys lamebrain vitriol  and thinks, “this would be a great photo-op…Obama standing down this guy and his Bulls**t. In fact, maybe he’ll even say something racist or really way out there.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So Obama comes up his street and Mr. Right-Winger takes the bait. In fact, Obama has even invited a Fox News Crew along. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It’d be a perfect way to get Keating back in the news cycle…especially if Fox or Drudge…passed this back to McCain and he didn’t bother to vet “Joe the Plumber”.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Actually I believe that the law requires one voting within the last two General Elections or ones name is purged. In addition, Samual J. Wurzelbacher was initially registered in Arizona (intriguingly, about the same time that McCain campaign contributor Robert W. Wurzelbacher, Jr. was being sent to prison for his involvement in the Keating S&amp;L Loan embezzlements).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thus Wurzelbacher is technically a “new registrant” although he was, apparently, eligible to vote in the Republican primary. IF he did, he did so under a false identity (that misspelled name that the Republicans claim is “fraud”).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;BTW Did anyone think it rather curious that McCain kept referring to “Non-Plumber Joe” as “My Old Friend” when he actually (supposedly) has never met the guy in his life before?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Either McCain is a habitual and pathological liar with his use of this “My old friend” bulldada…or perhaps he really does HAVE a long-ago relationship with a once young Arizonan named Samuel Joe Worzelbache. “Joe” happens to have lived in Tucson as a young man, got divorced there, and shares a surname with a McCain-Keating associate.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;A riff on the vetting of Sam the Plumber on MS NBC. I wondered if freepatriot wrote the script because, as you’ll see, they use the term “rethuglican”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Tou07YoC5Q&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;VIDEO&lt;/a&gt;  &lt;/blockquote&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;I had categorized it as condescending or possibly racist, but undoubtedly you are correct.   Regardless it is disrespectful&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;On Chris Matthews tonight they said “Joe the Plumber” was mentioned 32 times (that seems impossible).  Matthews also reported that “Joe” was not licensed in Ohio.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Really something that McCain would mention Joe so often and ignore the Iraq War Vets outside who wanted to ask Obama and McCain some questions.  Hell the MSM ignored these Vets and so is the progressive blogosphere?  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;  What Vets?&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;still no mention about the Iraqi war Vets arrested and trampled last  night outside the debate.  What war?  Iraqi War Vets protesting…who cares.  Not the MSM.  Story at Democracy Now&lt;/p&gt;</description>
