Hot Air has an on the spot analysis of the leftist media’s treatment of Joe Wurzelbacher.  Joe The Plumber unwittingly had the mainstream media unleashed with full fury for simply asking Senator Barack Obama a question, after Obama had picked him to ask.  The intensity of the liberal media’s response has been directly and exponentially proportional to the embarrassment Obama has suffered for inadvertently revealing his true wealth redistribution plans.   AT HIS OWN HANDS!

So what have we learned from this episode?

1. Thou shalt not offend The One by asking him a question.  Of any kind.
2. Anyone who questions The One will have to undergo a public pillorying of a kind unseen since the Red Scare, or perhaps the Inquisition.
3. The Tanning-Bed Media will happily participate in any inquisition, as long as it keeps them from investigating irrelevant issues like Obama’s ties to the Chicago Machine, William Ayers, ACORN, or his record on protecting infanticide.

Don’t ask questions. Don’t check the records of people running for political office, but do check the records of those who dare violate Rule #1.  No dissent will be tolerated.  Our political and media masters have spoken.
