I don't understand why they interview this guy about anything beyond his own personal finacial situation and plumbing...

...just the same if someone was asking me about Israel....WTF do I know about Israel??? Ask me about aircraft engineering and I'm fine...ask me about foreign policy and I'll just tell you we should be bombing them foreigners....because we can sell more planes that way.

Joe have no problems with Joe... he's doing damage to his own image and reputation, but it's his choice to be a political tool by a losing campaign. And let's face it... he obviously likes the attention.


Joe, in a nutshell, encapsulates your typical AM talk radio listener. They know the issues only as they are described on their favorite radio host (or TV program). When faced with a question they believe they have an answer... when instead they have only been armed with rhetoric. Joe would be best if he stepped away from foriegn policy and questions about our economy.

If there are people who align themselves with Joe W. ... I have alot of friends that work in construction and they think he's making an ass of himself.

The look on Shepard Smith's face was priceless. It completely summed it up for me.

You know what it's like? It's like 'American Idol Meets the Press.'

And let's face it, we've asked for it. We actually seem to care about what Paris Hilton and her ilk has to say. Millions of people tune in to see some poor soul embarrass his or herself on national TV, and not just embarrass his or herself, but willingly be subjected to insult and emotional injury all for the possibility of essentially winning the lottery.

Well, JTP is getting his fifteen minutes, and, if he ends up richer for it, more fools we.

It's mind blowing that this guy is campaigning, and not someone knowledgeable like Tom Ridge or even Lieberman? What kind of surreal atmosphere is Senator McCain selling the public?

McCain has clearly aligned himself with the stupid, Sarah and now Joe.

You are known by the company you keep

Well, I guess if your campaign is not about issues, and you have no plan to execute once (if) you are elected, then it all might as well be about style over substance, or nothing, really.

Wait - that's it - it's all just one long 'Seinfeld' episode
