The ACORN Man’s campaign obviously doesn’t like it when they’re asked questions about Obama’s stated intentions to “spread the wealth around.”
Barbara West (at WFTV in Orlando) not only angered Biden “I don’t know who’s writing your questions” Biden during this interview (view the video), she also caused the Obama campaign to give a preview of how they intend to censor the press and others should voters buy into their sham and put them into office. Because they didn’t like the questions asked by Barbara West, the Obama campaign canceled WFTV’s scheduled interview with Joe Biden’s wife Jill. There’s evidence that government computers (in Democrat-controlled Ohio) were used to gather information on Joe the Plumber.
(If you watch the Barbara West interview of Joe Biden video, you’ll also hear how Biden perpetrates continuing the claim that the $800,000+ Obama gave to ACORN to “get out the vote” during the primaries doesn’t count as contributing to ACORN’s efforts “this election.” Biden failed to convince me that I’m not about to become a disenfranchised voter.)
Holland (Toledo-area Ohio) plumber Joe Wurzelbacher asked the ACORN candidate Barack Hussein Obama a tax question that the news media and Obama’s other enablers have thus far refused to ask.
Joe, who like most of us who are ambitious and still believe in the American Dream, has been working 12-hour days. In Joe’s case, he’s working hard because he hopes to buy a plumbing business. Joe wants to be able to employee other people, but now fears that achieving his dream in Barack Hussein Obama’s world would mean that by grossing more than $250,000 in a year, he’ll now be considered wealthy. The important factor is that what a small business grosses is far removed from that business’ profit. Confiscatory tax rates mean that Joe can’t achieve his dream because Obama’s taxes will take away the dollars Joe (and people like him) want to invest in the business. Dollars that could otherwise be used to pay other employees and the benefits for those employees.
On Sunday, Wurzelbacher told Obama that he’s working hard because of his goal to buy a plumbing company that grosses more than $250,000 a year; Joe asked him: “Your new tax plan is going to tax me more, isn’t it?”
Obama’s reply said it all: “It’s not that I want to punish your success, I just want to make sure that everybody who is behind you, that they’ve got a chance at success, too. I think when you spread the wealth around, it’s good for everybody.”
In other words, Obama doesn’t think that anyone who works hard should have more fruits from their labors than those who don’t work. Joe and people like him are supposed to work to pay his own bills and those of as many nonworking people as possible. (In the meantime, those who milk the system and cook the books are rewarded. After all, cooking the books is why even though he’s in the middle of a divorce and still has an $8 million home to sell Frank Raines has the money to buy a $4.9 million condo.)

Socialism has been ‘new and improved’ more times than Tide; the major difference between the two is that Tide still works.
