Truth comes out in small doses

Topics:
As Herb Denenberg pens at The Bulletin, that especially holds true when it has to do with Barack Obama:

[...] When Sen. Barack Obama isn't reading from a teleprompter or a script prepared by his handlers, the truth starts coming out...in small doses. That's what happened with Joe "The Plumber" Wurzelbacher. Joe asked Obama about his plans for raising taxes on small business, and the great one replied, "Its not that I want to punish your success; when you spread the wealth around it is good for everyone."

Spreading wealth around is right out of Sen. Obama's socialist playbook, and is central to his extremist, radical, left wing, liberal, socialist agenda. No, Sen. Obama, spreading wealth is not good for everyone. It may be good for the Democratic Party, which sees its Robin Hood tactics as a way to win votes, as a way to extend the welfare state, as a way to rob Peter to pay Paul, and as a way to follow the failed European model favored by leftists. But spreading wealth around is not good for the American economy. It is just a piece of the constant tax, spend, regulate, and grow government approach of the Democratic Party, which kills jobs, slows the economy, increases the deficit, and punishes and penalizes success. Ronald Reagan and John F. Kennedy were tax-cutters and proved that's the way to a stronger economy. Herbert Hoover and Barack Obama are advocates of tax increases and trade restrictions in tough economic times. Hoover gave us the first Great Depression and Sen. Obama may be on the road to producing the second (if, God forbid, he should be elected).

Sen. Obama's game-changing gaffe focused light on another sad reality. The sickness of the mainstream media was demonstrated by its reaction to the unmasking of Sen. Obama as a socialist, bent on redistributionist policies that are anathema to the American people. Instead of admitting the gaffe or trying to explain it away, they launched an attack on Joe The Plumber. They discovered that his middle name was Joe, but his first name was Samuel. They discovered he wasn't a licensed plumber (which he doesn't have to be to run a plumbing business).

This was all just an attempt to prove he was some sort of fraud, because he chose to use his middle name instead of his first name. We know it is politically incorrect to call Sen. Obama by his middle name, Hussein, but the rest of us are free to use our middle name if we chose to do so.

As Rush Limbaugh pointed out, within days the mainstream media had spent more time investigating and reporting on Joe "The Plumber" than they had spent in years investigating and reporting on Barack Obama or his friend, terrorist William Ayers or his corrupt land deal associate, Tony Rezko, or another one of his racist, bigot associates, Father Michael Pfleger. That tells you the depth of the perversion of the journalistic values of the mainstream media, the extent of their journalistic malpractice in covering this election, and about one of the legions of reasons the mainstream media can no longer be trusted...why it should be shunned and boycotted by readers, viewers, listeners, and advertisers. (Start by boycotting the Philadelphia Inquirer).
