Nothing to worry about? Ask Joe the Plumber and Barbara West

I really have to say that the longer I hear Biden talk, the more I am convinced that Lori Kalner's warning to us is one that we need to hear, and need to heed. The same goes for Obama and their 'spinners'--

When a UNITED STATES CITIZEN asks a question that is a real concern of his, and gets a response that is as flabbergasting as the one that "Joe the Plumber" got from Obama, it is newsworthy. Obama's answer was not as guarded as are his speeches, because HE went out to the public, where HE had no control over what was going to be asked/answered. No script. No teleprompter. No one sitting in the wings whispering into his ear.



The man answered the question Joe asked, and HE is the one who should be looked into for his answer, NOT Joe the Plumber! His answer IS one that a Socialist would give...

Instead, they went after the questioner. NOW we even have reports of the use of government computers to get information on him??

The video HTML didn't work, but you can view it here.

But that one alone, though it worried me, did NOT concern me as much as the response to Barbara West's interview with Joe Biden! She did the job that a journalist is SUPPOSED to do! She asked probing questions on things that ARE bothersome, and DO NEED ANSWERS! She, as a member of a FREE PRESS is duty-bound to ask hard questions when answers are not apparent. The reaction that Biden had, trying to minimize her, and obviously angry, is telling enough. But the reaction that the campaign had, the notice sent out calling her unprofessional for DOING HER JOB makes me cringe even more...for if Obama/Biden get into power, with the Democratic Legislature to back them...what can not only the PRESS, but INDIVIDUALS who ask questions expect to happen?

Joe the Plumber is only one citizen. Barbara West is a professional reporter who has had years of experience, including working with Peter Jennings.

To see that interview, go here

When anyone tries to shut down hard questions that really do matter, but that they do not agree with in a political campaign, it bears concern.

This IS what they did in Germany, and in every other country with totalitarian leadership (aka dictators).

Our FREE PRESS has not been doing its job for a long time. Instead, they have been feeding us pablum, feeding us soundbytes, feeding us opinion dressed as news, feeding us biased reporting.

Pray for Barabara West, and watch what more the left will do to her and others who speak out against what THEY perceive to be... good for us to know.

Pray for US (as in us and the US) as well!

God bless!
