I wish the left would not resort to charater assination at all times. This guy is not a politician, his personal life needs to be left alone.

You wish the LEFT wouldn't resort to character assassination all the time?  Did you sleep through the 2004 campaign?  Are you sleeping through THIS campaign? 

 

 Clarence Thomas(the worst ever imo), Robert Bork, Sarah Palin, Newt Ginrich, George Bush.... Joe the Plummer... Yes it does go both ways. So it does not bother me too much. Joe Whateverhisnameis is not a politician, they should leave him alone. If the left starts building hate for this guy he is not gonna have 50 body guards like politicians do... at best he will get a cop car parked out front of his house...

The only person on the left I have seen attempts against his charater this election cycle is Barack himself. I do not like it, it incites wackos, and indangers the person being demonized. The person I feel has been attacked the worse this election is SP... it is really redic... It is mainly coming from hollywood, but it is truly sad.

04 was bad both ways, I really did not like what Swiftboat did to John Kerry.

But as I stated above, Clarence Thomas was the worst... ever. They had people actually LIE to try and make him look like a criminal. I was young at the time, and even then I could see through it.

Basically, I should have said both sides do it, the left just does it more. (both are just as at fault)

Fuck Joe the Plumber.  That guy seems like a total douche bag, and I would kick him in the balls the first chance I got.

And get your character assassination accusations out of here if you are just going to ignore everything the GOP does.  What has McCain been trying to do to Obama this entire campaign (although McCain is only responsible for some of it, the GOP at large is responsible for more of it)?  And where do you think the term Swift Boat politics came from?

Hell, Karl Rove even assassinated another Republican's character (McCain), in 2000.

Don't make accusations if those accusations could just as easily be directed at the other party.

 

I can see the hate Joe the plumber campaign has already converted you.

I did acknowledge Barack has been attacked, did you miss that? And yes, Mccain was fucked over in 2000. Mccain brought it upon himself when he attacked the religious right. Stupid move, he learned his lesson this time around. Thus the pandering to the right. There are more examples of the left doing it to the right, than the right doing it to the left. You do not see the republicans treating Pelosi like the dems treated Ginrich do you? The reps did not treat Ginsberg like the left treated Thomas. Clinton was treated poorly... but he did lie under oath... he kinda did give people a reason to kick him in the balls. Bush, the left pissed all over him before 9/11 and Iraq. Now he may deserve it, but he never got a fair shake. No one has attacked Biden (ok, someone has I am sure) as a person (maybe stupid gaffs), Palin? Don't argue that one. I could got on. I do agree that Obama is getting it too. And I said that already. But it is far from even.
