2. Please give a report --
I hope someone asks if he's related to Keating and if he's registered to vote.

13. He's proud of the military and proud of what 'we've done over there
in Iraq.

He's a right wing hack.

37. But are they proud of him and his pals who claim to support them?
Edited on Thu Oct-16-08 09:34 AM by KCabotDullesMarxIII
There is a very evil mindset among today's Republicans prompting them to see the poor and the afflicted as "marks" for pocket-picking on a grand scale. Even to the extent of privatizing the penal system, veterans' hospitals, etc. No civilisation can sink to this level of moral turpitude and survive, in the same form. The Republican commisariat seems like the Nazi one.

They need to be put in internment camps to be de-neoconned and re-educated, but you can't help thinking it would be in vain. In Nazi Germany it had been preceded by a very serious "culling" by the war.

22. Not friends - RELATIVES.
http://www.eisenstadtgroup.com/2008/10/15/joe-the-plumb... /

Turns out that Joe Wurzelbacher from the Toledo event is a close relative of Robert Wurzelbacher of Milford, Ohio. Who’s Robert Wurzelbacher? Only Charles Keating’s son-in-law and the former senior vice president of American Continental, the parent company of the infamous Lincoln Savings and Loan. The now retired elder Wurzelbacher is also a major contributor to Republican causes giving well over $10,000 in the last few years.

9. If he's going to stay in the news, he better show some butt-crack
because he's boring

Asked if "Is this national?"..and then launched into this prepared speech

He just said social security ($$$$$) is forced on him

24. wtf!!!
I'm watching him on MSNBC right now. they're asking his life story!! they're letting him go on and on about how the War in Iraq is great, and how he has friends over there. and they told him the Iraqis welcomed us and are glad they have freedom now. He's shit talking Obama and Dems in general. He's saying that he represents the "little guy." this is such bullshit. hope it comes out this was another stunt by the McCain campaign. how pathetic

42. Charles Keating, Charles Keating, Charles Keating!!!!
If this was a plant by the McCain campaign, there are only two conclusions I can come to, either they are really, really stupid or they think we are. Worst Plant Ever! This is a Charles Keating Epic Fail.

Edited on Thu Oct-16-08 09:13 AM by LibDemAlways
hick spouting stupidity in front of a microphone. McCain already has the moron vote. Sounds to me like this idiot is firming it up even more for Obama.
