Obama's Contempt for the Working Class on Full Display
"A plumber is the guy he's fighting for," The One sneers with distain. The swarm of Obamunists around him go nuts, hooting in derision.
The reference is of course to McCain's defense of Joe Wurzelbacher, who complained that Obama's malevolent plans to inflict social justice by jacking up taxes will kill the dream of business ownership he's been struggling toward for years. BHO's response at the time was that he planned to "spread the wealth around" — i.e., steal Joe the Plumber's money and hand it out to parasites in exchange for votes.
If this clip got the play it deserves, it alone would derail Obama's campaign. Fortunately for the moonbat messiah, the liberal elite media is a wing of that campaign.
To think the Democrat Party was once considered the home of the working man. Now it's the shameful refuge of union slackers and others who sneer at the concept of advancing in the world through honest labor.
On a tip from bwahahahaha.

Of course he disdains plumbers; they don't eat arugula and $100/lb ham.

They hate us, they really hate us.
"Whoever heard of a plumber making 250K a year?" they sneer on the campaign trail. Because, gosh knows, only Hospital Affirmative Action Directors and University Professors who use to bomb people are entitled to that kind of money. Certainly not *those* people who have to get their hands dirty for a living.
Meanwhile, Michelle Obama shows solidarity with the working class by ordering champagne and lobster from room service at the Waldorf-Astoria.

Who then is Obama fighting for? If not the plumber then his entire campaign has been a sham.
Damn shame the media refuses to do its' job and sink this ship.

I've heard of a plumber who made it big, I guess Joe Biden the genius who thinks that JOBS has three letters in it and Obama who thinks we have 58 states (and we trust these two shits to actually fix something they broke) never heard of this company before:

It started out as a mom and pop business but thank God Obama and his band of assholes didn't have there hands on the socialist tax plan hatchet.

Just like all socialists commie scumbags they appeal to the workers then show them the door why else is there the WOLRD WORKERS PARTY a sinister commie group

Two points.
First, I can't wait until you NEED a plumber, Barry. It's like the old saying "never insult the waiter before he brings your food." Yep, that backed up toilet is really going to be a major problem. Might have to tear apart the whole house and dig up the whole yard.
Second, when you talk about "community service", don't you think that a plumber provides a very needed community service? Yes, he charges money. So what? The man that works for no pay is a slave. Do you condone slavery? Barry? I'm talking to you...

Biden apparently shares Oblabla's contempt for those who work:

That's right Libs- pull the lever for BO so the country can keep him and his Voluminous Privileged Shrew in Iranian champaign and caviar.
After all, we owe to them, right? He and VPS have become accustomed to the dainty life style - and anyway after all this slavery stuff, its the least we can do.
Place your greedy uninformed votes on BO so he can keep a jackboot on free market enterprise.
Then after the two are elected you all can bumb fists with each other. But don't expect to get invited to the table.
Posted by: Fiberal at October 17, 2008 3:53 PM
I'm telling you- David and Goliath. This really could be the one thing that ends this madness. When regular people realize what his tax plan actually means for them- they won't have it.
Conversely, when lazy slobs realize they no longer have to work, achieve, or make effort to live as comfortably as everybody else, they'll vote for him in a heartbeat.
It sure is a good thing that we teach kids the value of hard work and giving it your best effort always in both school and sports- oh crap, wait a minute...

Murff, New York City in the early 80s had 7 million able body people in it. Six of those seven worked the other million or so sat around doing drugs and a good chunk crimes such as rape, robbery and murder. I guess this is Obamas ideal america, roll back to the good ole days of New York City of the 80s when it was a free for all for lazy dirtbags.
Posted by: bwahahahahah` at October 17, 2008 4:27 PM
I can’t believe Obama did perform Islamic-Tambiko before starting running for president and pretend he was never a Muslim. There is book in Ebay my friend email me with title “Barack Obama: The First US Muslim President?” mentioned that he did perform tambiko. Scary, Vudu in White House.
Posted by: Adams at October 17, 2008 5:01 PM
One would think that Obama's comments on "bitter clingers" a few months ago would have done him in with anyone who worked for a living and had at least half a brain. Thia latest remark, fairly dripping with contempt toward every American who works with his or her hands (" . . .a plumber!" Read: "Ewwwwwww!") might well be the proverbial straw that broke the Dhimmicrat's back -- we can hope.
Any "blue" or other color collar person who works for a living and actually votes for Obambi is essentially commiting economic suicide, for him- or herself, their children and their grand-children.
Looking for "change?" Bet you're not looking for the kind of "change" that Obambi is going to bring you. But you go ahead and vote for the Marxist, if you want to (to your everlasting regret) . . .

God can say no wrong. Liberals worship him; pray to him; get down on their worthless knees and crawl to him. He is their life and breath. He thinks for them. Without Obama, they are nothing. Obama women rub themselves when they think of him; Obama men cream their sheets at night.
He is Obama. He is all. He will change the world.

We need to kick all republican out of office and make sure that thy never hold any office ever again , except for possibly toilet attendant. Look what thees scumbags did to they once great country in 8 short years, to the greatest country in the world with massive amounts of capital, that a democrat made, to 8 years later of mismanagement to the largest deficit in the history of our country and on top of it Bush straits a socialist program of cooperate welfare for the companies that cause this problems. Giving multy million dollar golden parachutes and massive multi million dollar bonuses to the cooperate executives that stole this money from the tax payers of America, yet the delusional moonbat right wing nut cases are so stupid that they want to give more money to bush and his gang of thrives.

You republicans told us in 2004 to stop our wining over the voter fraud we had found prior and during the election, now you republicans are saying something called ACORM is responsible for Democratic voter fraud against republicans. You nut case, moonbat , conspiracy theorist wingnuts are crazy, their is no way voter fraud could ever take place, you people are loosing and are attempting to make it seam like so great conspiracy is happening, put down the crack pipe and suck it up, your going to loose and it has nothing to do with your made up accusations of democratic voter fraud.
Get use to to being called righting moonbat, tinfoil hat wearing nutbags . . .
Posted by: mrethiopian at October 17, 2008 11:55 PM
mrethiopian;
That must be for 'M. R. Ethiopian', because you clearly have issues with rational thought.
Considering that the economic shit-storm we're now in the first stages of was CAUSED by bullshit leftist policies from Carter and Clinton, and exacerbated by your Obamessiah (exacerbated is a grown-up word, you may need to look it up), your yakkin' about Dubya "running us into the ground" is laughable. And if you want to bitch about the national debt, the greatest part of it belongs to lefty thieves such as yourself.
Yes, the National Debt stands at a shade over $10 Trillion dollars. But that's really a lie. When you include the un-funded obligations from Social(ist) (in)Security, Federal Pensions, and just flat out Entitlements (as in 'someone else is entitled' to your money... just because), make that figure closer to $50,000,000,000,000. And you can thank the Libs for 90% of that.
Also, could you please read some basic texts on grammar and punctuation, andrefrain from run-on sentences? I learned about them in third grade. I shouldn't fault you to much though, because when I was in school it hadn't been *completely* taken over by leftist. Teachers still taught back then, and weren't focussed on indoctrination.
Honestly, I hope you get your Messiah elected. It'll prove to you in the worst way that your world-view is 101% wrong... Good luck when a loaf of bread costs you $15 and you're out of work. Maybe you'll start seeing the truth of what we're saying here.
Posted by: hiram at October 17, 2008 11:56 PM
we're going to "loose"? as in 'let loose'?
The bitching the Dems did in 2000 was total bullshit, worse in 2004. Now we have documented proof of organized vote fraud by ACORN (not ACORM, or can't you spell either?) on a massive scale. Some state AG's are looking at prosecuting, as well as the FBI. The jig is up, pal. You're not gonna steal this one without a fight to at least get the truth out.

Anon response to my last question - “liberals are such low-life obama-shit-eating whores - UN-BELIEVE-ABLE!"
The only response I ever get from you rightwing nutbags is name calling, Name calling is is the response a three year old, not an adult, yet none the less thats a typical rightwing response, when you disagree with someones response is call then names.
I guess that explains why the only way you people can win at anything is too cheat.
Posted by: Anonymous at October 18, 2008 12:10 AM
Anon in response to anon...
I have a feeling you're both the same person.
The only way we can win is cheat? Like the way that every single Democrat in Cook County, Illinois, has voted in every election since 1960? Whether they were alive or not? Or did it in alphabetical order? Or the way that the Goracle tried to rig the recounts in Florida in 2000 for only the 3 most Dem-heavy counties, specifically exclude the Republican-heavy panhandle that was once again told the polls had closed an hour before they actually did by the media, and throw out the absentee ballots (which were mostly military)?
Yeah, you lefties are ones to talk about cheating... you know all the tricks 'cuz you use them so much.
Classic projection.
Posted by: hiram at October 18, 2008 12:30 AM
ow can you blame Clinton, he made money, when he left office he left surplus of money for the next president, Bush. What did bush the republican scum bag do, he created the largest false flag event and killed thousands of Americans, lied to the American people and tricked them into a war that was not needed just so he could extort money from the American people and give it to his corporate buddies. In this time of illegal planing, on 9/10 he announce he lost billions of dollars in Iraq somewhere and it could not be found. Then over the 8 yeas of republican lining Bush created the largest deficit in the history of the USA, spending billions of dollars on overpriced contracts with private no-bid security corporations . Spending no money for the VA so that soldiers coming home could get the shittest third world care he could find.
Sorry I digressed, we went from 1999 to Mr Clinton leaving a surplus of money to Bush the next president and then over the course of 8 years of mismanagement Bush is leaving the next president with the largest deficit in the history of this country. Yet somehow you crazy rightwing moonbats will tell us that its the fault of the people that made money the smart responsible democrats that make money.
Bush / Cheney the Hague 09 War Crimes.

Hiram aka Moonbat!
If you Google “2004 election fraud” you will find endless articles about republican election fraud and nothing about Democratic fraud. Hiram your a delusional moonbat looney.
On your planet you got any kind of proof or Democratic election fraud in 2000 and 2004??
Posted by: mrethiopian at October 18, 2008 12:40 AM
We need to kick all republican out of office and never let their liein assas back in office ever again.

Posted by: mrethiopian at October 18, 2008 12:50 AM
Yeah, that's from Google.
Google also blocks anything they don't like.
Look, kids, I'd love to stay here and debunk your ill-spelled and grammatically incorrect bullshit, but I have to go to work in the morning. Someone has to pay for all the socialist do-nothing programs that have been forced on us since FDR. When you move out of Mom's basement or the dorms you may understand this. Someday, when you get a pay-stub (if you ever do), you'll be looking at it and thinking, "who is this bitch Fica, and why am I paying her child support, 'cuz I don't remember getting laid?". If you get your wishes, trust me, just stay in Mom's basement. If you get a job, you'll be paying Fica for THREE of her kids, not one.

wingnuts are funny. Socialism. Ha! When youask any wingnut, do we need more cops? Yes. Do we need more and bigger prisons? Yes. Do we need to spend more on and have a bigger military? Hell Yeah! Should we spend money on any program that might actually help someone? Hell no, that's socialism.
Ironically, again, your republican administration, as well as your republican candidate for president created, supported and passed the greates socialist bill in the history of the country. Not a peep from the extremists here.

Anyone who believes that Obama's Tax and spend policys will only hurt the "rich" should read this article and the comments from small business owners that follow. It almost brings tears to your eyes thinking about how much hard work, time and money people have put into their business and they are preparing to walk away from them because it just won't be worth it. How hard is it to understand that Obama won't be taxing their profits - he'll be confiscating the OPERATING CAPITAL they use to run their business and pay their employees.

mrethiopian, you really should learn some spelling and basic grammar skills before calling US "stupid."
"I cant wait till 09 till all you lining scum are in jail,"
Was that a threat? You claim that you'll have all Republican citizens put in jail for the crime of disagreeing with your insane, brainless views.
Well, that fits, since you're a Socialist like Obama, and that kind of thing happened all the time in Socialist nations.
Oh, and "Lining scum"?
LOL!

Posted by: Adam at October 18, 2008 7:17 AM
I see they've been passing around the Kool-Aid quite a bit this weekend. Obamatrons usually fall into a few easily identifiable categories:
1. The indoctrinated college student who has never actually paid any taxes yet thinks socialism and communism are good ideas. They have never had any history lessons nor worked for anything they have ever received. Like the children they are, they think it is not fair for one person to have more than any other person, no matter how that person got it. They typically grow out of this phase a few years after school.
2. The union worker who would otherwise be a respectable person, but has been duped into thinking The Anointed One actually cares about their job. In reality He will place higher taxes and tougher restrictions on their employers, making a move overseas more tempting. The more disgruntled The Messiah can keep the union worker the higher the probability that He can nationalize more industries.
3. The charity case who has never accomplished anything nor worked for anything in their life. They are easily identified by their victim rhetoric; things always happen or are done to them because they have been trained to believe they cannot control their own lives. The charity case supports Obama for the handouts and believes to be entitled to other people's money. Once someone becomes a charity case there is little hope for change.
I could go on, but just file the rest under morons or retards.

Posted by: Harris at October 18, 2008 7:31 AM
"They have never had any history lessons..."
Or, if they have, the history lessons were taught by tenured ex- hippies who teach them things like that the U.S. is a bully to everyone, that the only thing important about WWII is how mean we were to the Japanese, how all American wars were the result of greedy imperialists in the U.S. government, and how socialism/ communism is the way to go for the U.S..
As someone with a B.A. in history, I have had some teachers like that.

If Obama hates people who work so much, then why has he worked all of his life?
Posted by: Hillary Clinton at October 18, 2008 10:19 AM
Dear Hillary, To answer your question, you must first ask this: "If Obama has worked his entire life, then why does he hate people who work?"
Two possibilities come to mind:
1.) He has never really worked at all, or
2.) He has worked feverishly to undermine those who do work hard and are successful.
But, those are just stupid answers to a stupid question. Your attempt at intellectualism is pretty sub par, Hildog. However, I do look forward to reading more of your laughable extrospective reasoning. (for some reason)
Posted by: theQUICK at October 18, 2008 11:29 AM
Hillary, it's what he's been working on that's really the issue.
Posted by: Thulsa Doom at October 18, 2008 12:08 PM
And, Hildog, Obama has never held a job in which he actually had to deliver results. It's one thing to be given a job because people think you're one of them or that it's politically correct, and a totally different aspect entirely to be given a job because you're qualified.

Yeah, I've never been a big Bushie, been severely disappointed by both of them, just that the alternative at each point has sucked so much worse. McCain doesn't light my fire AT ALL, though in my mind Saracuda is the best of the four. At this point, though, I wouldn't hesitate to vote for W again instead of that tumor Obama. That's just how bad an idea Obama is.

Yeah, let a plumber show up dozens of times, long enough to say he was present, then send a bill to his customers. See how far that flies. What a crock.
All of these people the media tries to destroy would be a better president than Him.

Posted by: Harris at October 18, 2008 1:52 PM
OBAMA'S SPEECH WAS CUT SHORT IN THIS CLIP.
Obama was talking about the idea that McCain is actually fighting FOR plumbers, and the crowd was laughing over the idea that McCain represents blue-collar workers or labor as a whole, especially when Obama's tax plan will benefit someone such as "Joe the Plumber" that earns $40,000 a year.
Meanwhile, McCain has used the word "welfare" to describe Obama's taxplan which would help Joe and many others on here.
The problem is that many of you folks only watch FoxNews which had cut off the rest of Obama's speech will completely puts it into context. Of course, most of you dismiss the rest of the media as liberal, so you are stuck in your little insulated "Fox" news world.
But seriously, some folks on here sound a bit crazed, with your hatred of Obama. Worse yet, talking about ACORN while demonstrating ignorance of the efforts of the Republicans to purge hundreds of thousands of voters in various states. THAT is an attempt to change the election, more so then any supposed efforts by ACORN.
Posted by: Baculus at October 19, 2008 10:43 PM
