You'd think the repukes could find one asshole who actually is registered to vote to say that crap.

Stupid reference, but at least there was some reference to tap dancing...not just random black man. But haha! Not registered to vote? Wonder if that's true!

Basically calling Obama a liar on the $250k issue.

Asswipe.

:eyes:

He said something to the effect that if Obama would raise taxes on people making more than $250,000 maybe he'll raise taxes on people making $100,000.

His comparison of Obama to Sammy Davis Jr was in the sense that Obama "tap-danced around the questions". Hardly a fair assessment of Obama!

and when will Obama decide to tax those making $100,000. With the inntonation being that he doesn't make that much either.

He's a right wing stooge.

Heh...tap dancing...maybe he should have just pulled a "I'm not going to answer that question...instead, I'd like to talk about.."

He was so in the tank for McCain. He said he wanted to corner Obama and get him to answer a tough question but Obama just tapped danced around the answer. Huh????? Obama answered him in amazing detail. Couric asked him if he makes over $250,000 per year and he said no, and then he says "but how about if he decides $100,000 a year or less than that is too much and taxes that, where do you draw the line?" You draw the line at $250,000 as Obama has said a million times! This guy is 100% in the tank for McCain, it is a shame he is going to get fame out of this.

You could tell that Joe actually got to the point where he agreed, but then, Joe couldn't/wouldn't let himself go with what he knows is right.

Joe would've been better off for all those years he built up to this moment, with Obama's plan.
Joe doesn't care what most American's are going through, cuz 250 grand isn't enough for Joe; Joe only cares about Joe.
Joe will eventually be making less money because he will have LESS customers to hire HIM, then sure as hell, Joe will be grateful for the tax cuts Obama will provide him.


Joe missed the ball. Joe could've represented the REAL average Joe, like he was in his building up to his successful business, with YES, hard work AND with as Obama pointed out and Joe agreed, LUCK; but he lost himself along the way apparently.

You ain't no average Joe, Joe.... you are a true Joe shmo!
