Joe Biden (VP) “on-the-job training” Comments about Obama
August 22, 2008
After Senator Joe Biden’s statement that freaked the world out, and has many questioning what exactly was revealed by the Bush administration during transition talks recently, it appears loose-lips-sink-ships admonishment applies.

Bumper sticker forewarns well. Most poignant for those unfamilar with Cuba before 1959. And scary for those familiar with Cuba before Fidel Castro brought change. You should really think twice if “Change” is on your wish list.

John McCain and an Army of Joes. The real anger at McCain’s rallies from NRO has propelled forward the metaphoric average Joe. Amazing how the average person in America can relate to Joe The Plumber.

During this political season, let’s be reminded of these wise words:
You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich.
You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong.
You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift.
You cannot lift the wage earner up by pulling the wage payer down.
You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred.
You cannot build character and courage by taking away men’s initiative and independence.
You cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they could and should do for themselves.
Abraham Lincoln
