Can the Obama campaign ban the church now?

Sen Joe Biden recently made a comment regarding abortion to The News Journal of Delaware, "I know that my church has wrestled with this for 2,000 years."

Well Joe's church called him on it. His bishop wrote a letter to the editor stating that, "This is simply incorrect". 

The bishop continues with, "The teaching of the Church is clear and not open to debate. Abortion is a grave sin because it is the wrongful taking of an innocent human life". Ouch, sorry Joe.

This is a great example of the rhetoric the Obama campaign is throwing out to people and when they are called on it, like Joe the Plumber and the Florida news anchor, they want to silence them. 

What will the Obama campaign do now? Ban the church?

I think the articles are pretty newsworthy but I'm sure the MSM will shy away from this as well.

Joe - he's more than just a plumber

Can you relate to Joe the plumber? One night after the last debate between Sen. Barack Obama and Sen. John McCain, Joe the plumber has become a popular guy. 

There's another side to Joe, however. He's the iconic middle class 'guy' or person working the American Dream. He works hard, lives in a regular neighborhood, looks like you and I, and is looking to buy his own business.

He's a wake up call to all of us. He's middle class America. I say that over and over to get my point across.

This is who Sen. Obama is trying to appeal to and if you saw the video (below) Sen. Obama crashed and burned on his answer to Joe's question. He told Joe, who works hard and wants his own business, that he wants for everyone below Joe to share Joe's success and in order to do that Joe must give up part of what he's earned.

This is what redistribution of wealth is people. It's not taking from the super rich or big business, it's taking from those like Joe.

Below is a video of Joe the plumber.

Can poor people be patriotic?

On an ABC news interview Democratic Vice Presidential candidate Joe Biden said it was time for the rich to be patriotic. 

This came after a question asking Biden if people making over $250,000 would pay more taxes. Biden's responded, "You got it, it's time to be patriotic". He continues, "[It's] Time to jump in, time to be part of the deal, time to help America out of the rut".

So let me get this straight. It's up to the rich to bail out the US by paying more taxes. In turn this makes the rich patriotic. So by increasing taxes, the Obama administration is making rich people more patriotic. Sheer genius!

But wait, where does this leave the middle class and poor people? Do they have any means of becoming patriotic or are they left to be dug "out of the rut"? This also leaves us to believe the Obama administration assumes the middle class and poor feel that taking money from the rich is their only way out. I would think the Obama-Biden campaign would give the American people a little more credit than that, but hey, I've never been a community organizer so who am I to say.

Thanks once again Joe!
