Default Forget Joe the Plumber — meet Joe the Steelworker

Beyond the Obama ads, Joe Soptic’s steelworker story.

Business as usual some may say...

Quote:
Joe Soptic, 62, has become a go-to figure for supporters of President Obama, appearing this week in his second campaign ad talking about being laid off from a Kansas City, Mo., steel plant that was taken over by Bain Capital in 1993.


On Wednesday, Obama advisers distanced themselves from the former steelworker and the most recent ad, saying they were unaware of the details of Soptic’s account about his wife. “We don’t have any knowledge of the story of the family,” spokeswoman Jen Psaki said on Air Force One.

What a classless, lying lowlife Obama is which is not surprising since he has resorted to these despicable tactics in every race he has run. Also, when you have zero accomplishments and your policies have produced the worst recovery in 65 years, he has nothing positive to run on. It's the Chicago way.

How great is it that the scumbag Obama tried to lie his way of it and got busted!

The Obama hate and outrage over an ad which is not false, but only shading the timing, is sadly hypocritical, considering the last three ads Romney campaign has put out over the past three weeks (not a superpac), including this mornings release, have been labeled screaming "pants on fire" lies by the media, because of the complete and outright lying about what the President said by Romney campaign

Aggressive lies in campaign ads is exactly what Romney did to his opponents in his primaries this spring, and what he did in his last failed run for President in 2008. And it's the reason why the rest of the Republican party have been on record, publicly, about not being able to stand the guy.

but like the article says, they all do it-cause it works. people say they don't like negative ads, but they wouldn't run them if they didn't produce results.

then again, i was reading earlier today about polling women-should any programs be cut. the answer an overwhelming NO! but then when they ask raise taxes or cut programs, the answer was cut. er...but ya just said don't cut anything! lol


we are so screwed.
