You've seen the youtube video. You know the one -- where the 'Average Joe' says he's looking to improve his lot in life, by buying the plumbing company he works for, and asks Barak Obama about Obama's tax plan. He says something around the likes of 'Your plan would tax me more, right'? And Barak Obama revealed himself to be the Socialist that he is, by saying, "It's not that I want to punish your success,... If we SPREAD THE WEALTH AROUND, IT'S GOOD FOR EVERYBODY".
Barak Obama does INDEED want to punish the successful, by taking their hard-earned money in higher taxes, and giving it to the people who don't work for it -- those that only have their hands out. That's Socialism, and it HAS NEVER WORKED IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD.
Joe "the Plumber" just may have woken up those that have been sitting on the sidelines, not really 'into' politics, just by ASKING THE QUESTION of the candidate. This man is a symbol of a hard-working American, who wants to go for his slice of the American Dream. And if this "Average Joe" succeeds, and buys that plumbing business, he doesn't want the GOVERNMENT to take HALF of his earnings, to give to those who didn't work for it -- who didn't risk it -- who didn't go for the American Dream. Joe is EVERYONE that wants to get ahead in this country. Joe is me. Joe just may be you.
On August 29th, John McCain chose for his runningmate, Sarah Palin, who I believe is God's answer to our prayers to send us a new Ronald Reagan. Ronald Reagan NEVER forgot his humble beginnings -- his roots. And Sarah Palin comes from the same kind of humble roots -- the daughter of school teachers. Sarah Palin, with her simple speaking, speaks for me, speaks for you, and speaks for all the 'Joe the Plumbers' out there in this country. Sarah Palin speaks for mothers of the disabled, Sarah Palin speaks for business owners (for she has been one with her husband, Todd), Sarah Palin speaks for women, Sarah Palin speaks for all of us who didn't grow up wealthy, but WANT to live the American Dream. Sarah Palin isn't the Messiah, like many believe of Obama. She's just a more accomplished version of you and me.
