In WV, Biden Calls McCain’s Halloween Costume Unconvincing

CHARLESTON, WV — If John McCain’s trying to be the candidate of change, he’s going to need a better costume, says the Democratic vice presidential nominee.

Joe Biden told a cheering crowd in this traditionally red state that Americans are seeing through McCain’s efforts to distance himself from George Bush.

“I know Halloween is coming, but John McCain as a candidate of change? Whoa, come on! John McCain and change? He needs a costume for that,” Biden said.

“Yesterday, literally, John McCain actually went so far as to compare Barack Obama with George W Bush. As my granddaughter Finnegan would say, Hello! This is as crazy as, you know, Butch Cassidy attacking the Sundance Kid. I mean, that’s a team. These guy have been a team.”

Biden ridiculed McCain and Sarah Palin for calling each other mavericks. “I love to watch ‘em,” he said. “They get on that stage and they start — ‘I’m a maverick. No, you’re a maverick. We’re mavericks.’ They’re all mavericks, right?”

“Senator Casey, he said you know, you can’t call yourself a maverick when all you’ve been for the last 8 years is a sidekick. Well all of a sudden they’re trying to get off this horse. You know, ‘and the horse you rode in on?’ Well they rode in on Bush’s horse. They’re continuing to feed it.”

It was the Obama campaign’s first general election campaign stop in West Virginia - a state Obama lost in the primary by 40 points, but where polls have been closing to the point that Sen Jay Rockefeller told the cheering crowd that it’s down to a one point race.

Biden appealed to the crowd in this coal mining state by defending his commitment to clean coal technology - and accusing McCain of opposing it. McCain has been running ads on the issue ever since Biden told a woman on an Ohio rope line that he opposed clean coal.

“Let me get something straight. Because you watch these McCain ads, you wonder what planet are they coming from,” Biden said. “Ladies and gentlemen, John McCain does not believe that clean coal is part of our future. Don’t take my word for it. Take his word for it. Here’s what he said, quote — ‘In a perfect world we’d like to transition away from coal entirely.’”

“So John, if you’re listening. Stop this malarkey about who’s for clean coal.”

And Biden had high praise for his Senate colleage of 36 years, Robert Byrd - who delivered a fiery introduction for the Delaware lawmaker. “In West Virginia, you have one of the greatest leaders, probably one of the most historic senators in all of American history in Robert Byrd. I mean this sincerely. I mean this in my heart,” he said.

“This is a guy who stood in the rain, in the pouring rain in the two days before Christmas at a memorial service for my deceased wife when I was a 29 year old kid,” Biden said, choking up briefly. “He didn’t even let anybody know he was coming.”

“Ladies and gentlemen, Bob Byrd represents everything your state’s about and everything this country is about.”

Obama and Biden are still unlikely to win in West Virginia, where McCain and Palin are barely playing. But Biden said they’re committed to getting every last possible vote. “We plan on competing right to the very end for every single vote here in this state and with your help — I want you to get out. You can vote early, so vote early. Get out there and vote,” he said.

Biden is so much of a Hypocrite just liek Colin Powell.
The honorable thing for Mr Powell to have done was to
remove himself from the Rebublican party then say whatever he wanted.
The real halloween mask is worn by no other than
Nancy Poloski–

Comment by Carolyn Wright

Yesterday on my way to lunch I passed a homeless guy with a sign that read ‘Vote
Obama, I need the money.’ I laughed.

Once in the restaurant my server had on an ‘Obama 08′ button, again I laughed as
he had given away his political preference– just imagine the coincidence.

When the bill came I decided not to tip the server and explained to him that I
was exploring the Obama redistribution of wealth concept. He stood there in
disbelief while I told him that I was going to redistribute his tip to someone
who I deemed more in need–the homeless guy outside. The server angrily stormed
from my sight.

I went outside, gave the homeless guy $10 and told him to thank the server
inside as I’ve decided he could use the money more. The homeless guy was
grateful.

At the end of my rather unscientific redistribution experiment I realized the
homeless guy was grateful for the money he did not earn, but the waiter was
pretty angry that I gave away the money he did earn even though the actual
recipient needed money more.

I guess redistribution of wealth is an easier thing to swallow in concept than
in practical application. Stop the lies, deceit, higher taxes, total government control over you, Socialism, welfare fraud, illegal voting,….Stop OBAMA NOW !

I live in West Virginia, and we are NOT a traditionally red state! We went Bush the last two elections because the Dems put up two horrible candidates. We’re going to turn WV back to blue!

 
Comment by Joyce

You know how everyone defending McCain/Palin keeps saying $150,000 for clothes is nothing, given the size of a campaign, yadda, yadda?
Well, speaking of West Virginia — from Oct 13-19, the McCain campaign and RNC together spent only $90,000 on ads there. And it’s a swing state. A chunk of the “dolling up Palin” budget could have doubled that.
The NYT just reported that Palin’s make-up girl, Amy Strozzi, was paid $22,800 for the first half of October. (And this is not even included in the $150,000 clothing budget). The make-up girl was paid more than McCain’s top foreign policy and communications advisers in that time. Shows someone’s priorities.

To Mrs Carloyn Wright
Thank God you were able to eat out for lunch. My job just got sent overseas and I am on unemployment. So rich guy with all these Bush tax cut decided to it was better to allow some other country the opportunity to have my job. So thank the Bush Administration and McCain for the thought and kindness they help left my family and may Americans end. I don’t know maybe you will have the opportunity to have your job shift overseas as well.

Comment by Elizabeth Flood

To “Carolyn Wright”

You’re deluded in your thinking that republicans don’t participate in “redistribution of wealth,” as you call it, because republicans throw around just as much money as the next politician.

I don’t expect to ever get through to you, what with all the kool-aid you’re gulping, so keep on believing that liberals are they boogie men and they are coming to get you and your “hard-earned money.”

Boo!

It’s too bad Biden can’t find a costume. His silliness and inability to articulate a reasonable concept is still all to clear. What kind of costume should Biden be wearing? Any takers?

@Carolyn Wright

What part of “No taxes for those making less than 250,000 USD a year DON’T you UNDERSTAND ?”

The homeless guy makes next to nothing and the waiter is probably making around 30,000 - maybe even less, with cheap patrons such as yourself justifying it by citing no tips as ‘experiments’. That leaves us with you. How much are you making ? If you are making less that 250K, which I suspect is the case, then your taxes won’t go up. On the other hand, the owner of the Gas pump that you are filling your Car at, and the company suppling him the gas (Exxon, Chevron) will get taxed higher, and their wealth will be “redistributed” to you and the waiter.

Your experiment was fundamentally flawed, in that you picked the wrong subjects for sampling. This is akin to calling 100 rich white folks in California for a presidential poll and declaring that McCain is ahead by 90%.

You are not as clever as you have convinced yourself you are. In fact the homeless guy, if nothing else, has a brain bigger than yours.

American strategy for energy independence,,, McCain-Palin’s country first plan wins, Obama-Biden’s tax and spend ’spread the wealth’ plan loses,,, America wins,,,

 
Comment by Vote4Me

McCain would have taken this $10 and instead mailed it to the CEO of Exxon. Each candidate will continue to tax citizens. Obama’s plan is better for the “bottom” 95% (including Joe the Plumber). McCain’s is better for the richest 5%.

Taxes are the price of living in a civil society. The lower the better, but in general, they don’t matter much.

Here is the proof: in the past century, we’ve had both liberals and conservatives in white house with different tax policies, but the average economic growth has been the more or less the same 3%.

The moral of this: Taxes are important, but far less than some people have you believe.

Chad: You are wrong. My clients all make over $250K and since their taxes will go up,
they will buy my products and I will go out of business. That’s how it really works, my friend.
I don’t care if my taxes do go up some, but it’s the larger companies I worry about laying off
people and cutting their business back. I will one of those unemployed in the soup line
with all the other’s that DID vote for Obama. I won’t!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
McCain is the one who has a better plan when you figure it all out.

I don’t understand how the Republican Party can object so much to state ownership of resources when the biggest resource of all, patriotism, has been a Conservative monopoly for the last eight years.

Comment by frank burns

Call me “Frank the lawnmower man” I make about $25,ooo per year, and pay taxes even though I don’t have money enough to even pay my essential bills. But do I want Obama’s plan? No way! Suppose I work myself up — that’s the American dream — and I end up making $250,000 per year. Now, his plan would increase my taxes by as much as 3%! All of that hard work, and what do I get — more taxes. No, I prefer paying my taxes now, and then, when I get to the $250,ooo point, which is my Amercian dream, I won’t get hit by increases, no matter how small. And that should go for all the upper tax brackets, because someday, my dream is to be filthy rich, and I don’t want taxes on it.

Can Biden get any dumber or phonier? No wonder he won’t release his brain scans, sounds like his brain problems have returned………..has he gone down to Katie’s lately? It only closed 20 years ago………………..he has no savings and is mortgaged to the hilt (Vogue magazine non 0 8) but his wife wears Manolo Blahnik shoes, they start at $500…………..

 
Comment by LOVE IT.

I LOVE your response Chad… great way to break it down to these pinheads who makes less than$250,000 and still do not see the benefit they will under Obama. How would that like to give up their tax cut if Obama is elected? I bet they won’t. They would be as happy as a kid on Christmas and still chastise. Obama

Actually (though a small smapling size), Carolyn got it right. She took money from someone who earned it and gave it to someone who didn’t. Much like Obamas plan. Yes, I realized a few days ago he amended it to those people earning some sort of income, but you know I suspect he only made this change when he realized most people don’t like the idea of the Govforcing me to give to charity. If I wanna be cheap (like Biden) let me.

Comment by Membery

To Carolyn Wright :

Lets be realistic, you didn’t give 10 dollars to the homeless guy, but you did stiff the server. That makes you a JERK. Not a “political experiment” but a good ole jerk. Even if you really did give the money to the Homeless guy, that still doesn’t excuse you from being a jerk. All you basically did was stiff the server because of their political beliefs. Low down rude jerk.

Comment by PA Voter

Bush said a vote for Obama is a vote for Bush’s policies.
Did he just wake up from a deep sleep, and dream that he was Obama & Obama is him?
McCain supporters, take a look in the morror & ask yourselves “is this guy dillusional”.
Obama’s economic team all worked under Bill Clinton. Would these former Clinton staffers join Barack if he was someone they didn’t trust?
To those is Western PA AND Ohio, there’s no need to be afraid of Obama.

Comment by D. Leaf

A malicious man disguises himself with his lips, but he harbors evil in his heart. When his speech is charming, don’t believe him; for there are seven abominations in his heart. His malice may be concealed by deception, but his wickedness will be exposed in the assembly.
(Proverbs 26:24-26)
How fitting is this Proverb in describing modern day politicans. obama takes first prize in the classroom of being “evil, malicious, charming speech, ect. I do not believe one word of his speeches for they are filled with hate covered over by smiles and handshakes. These seven abominations are just now starting to come out one by one. Citizens of the USA are the assembly and the fair balanced press (Fox) will be faithful to bring out the truth.
We are a nation on the crossroads unlike any previous election. I hope enough of us in this nation have enough concern to vote this coming November, our welfare is in the balance folks.
A fitting name for obama should be changed to “obominanations.”

Biden can’t fool the people of WV. They have not forgotten Obama’s “bitter” comments during the primary, and how he shunned the voters of WV.

 
Comment by Jim

Looks like Chad had drank the Obama-aid. Let’s face it, if the waiter is a Democrat he’s probably not reporting the tips on his taxes anyway, and the homeless is of course inflation-proof. The other reality is that the $250K number is just ludicrous. Obama has completely failed to provide any details. Is that tax on profit? Is it on income? What about franchise taxes and payroll taxes. To spout a number such as that is nothing more than political platitudes aimed and fooling the nitwits who can’t think for themselves. Bottom line is that Democrats raise taxes, Republicans lower taxes. Reagan cut taxes and doubled the amount of tax revenue collected. Bush lowered taxes and record revenues ensued. Take a close look at the Laffer Curve and learn how raising and lowering taxes really effects tax revenue. Raising taxes on those that invest dampens that investment. What happens then?

 
Comment by Firth Davenport

I recently heard that Obama sometimes bites his nails and at night may snore. Oh my! He is obviously not qualified to be president! Good thing McCain gets a regular manicure and wears a snore stip - now he is much more like me!

 
Comment by Matt

It makes perfect sense, he did it on a micro-scale… But true to obama’s nature he is going to turn us into a socialist nation. Now, you say, “No he isn’t, that isn’t socialism.” Go wikipedia Socialism.. What he is doing is socialism at its core, he believes that a small portion of the nation has most of the wealth and wants to make it more fair by taxing them and lowering our taxes. Now what he doesn’t get is that when you tax those small businesses, they will cut people’s jobs because they are taking on more expense. So now more people will loose there jobs… Heck if I was a small business, why not just fire like 10 people and lower your money till your at 249,999… then you don’t get a tax hike. What about those 10 people… Guess what, THANKS OBAMA!!!!

 
Comment by Robbie

Carolyn — so you’re laughing because you cheap-skated an Obama-supporting waiter? Screwing people over for your personal entertainment — you must be one of those “compassionate” conservatives. By the way: Obama’s tax plan only redistributes wealth to those who WORK. Welfare recipietns dont’ benefit from Obama’s plan. The person who benefits is the guy who works just as hard as the $300,000/year executive, but only makes $9/hour at two jobs. This whole ‘lazy/worker’ argument is so lame. It’s not redistribution to the lazy — it’s redistribution to the hard-working, low-paid Americans who are getting screwed by corporate greed.

Comment by Costume Contest

What do American people think of Obama’s Haloween costume, for real with real experiences and life-time government leadership achievements, or all smoke? Is Obama a cigarette smoker, who is wasting big money in preparing for parties, and at the same time talking about the middle-class people who have to pay taxes to finance his big well-fare system, and even bigger government spending?? It is hard-core socialism. American people are smarter than that, and understand Obama is saying anything, and promising anything, to get elected, but not fooling all people all the time.

 
Comment by Firth Davenport

Hey Matt - McCain wants to take your tax dollars and throw it to all of those people who bought houses they couldn’t afford. Now I don’t know about you - I bought a house I could afford and was even able to make my payments when I was unemployed. So - McCain is going to take my tax money (and your tax money and everyone’s tax money) and spread that around. BTW - McCain also seriously supported that plan to spread the wealth of the wealthiest in this country - the US Treasury - to all his buds on Wall Street. Now you are going to say Obama did that too - then we are in agreement - they both are socilaist. So maybe it is time for the kettle to stop calling the pot black.

 
Comment by MB

Carolyn, that was great…I sat here chuckling.

Chad…go back and read your political history. Clinton sold the voters on the same line of bull and then raised EVERYONES taxes in the end. And his wife’s crazy health plan never flew either. Obama’s plan just doesn’t add up.

 
Comment by judy

Hello, I think I see McCain not Bush running for President. McCain may be a Republican but it does not mean he thinks exactly like Bush. Come on Joe, this is common sense. If people are buying this stuff I do not know what to think. It is apparent the Obama campaign are having to grasp for straws. If you have done your research you know that McCain DID NOT SUPPORT EVERYTHING THAT BUSH DID. If you listen to the Obama campaign you will be brain washed.

 
Comment by SLT

Chad, I don’t think you are as clever as you think you are either. It sounds to me like you are just another Obama supporter who has blindly accepted what you were told without doing the research.

Suppose Obama wins (cringe) and he raises taxes on those making more than $250K. The waiter in Carolyn’s experiement (hysterical, by the way) probably works for a restuarant making more than $250K. That does not take much considering the large amount that must be paid in salaries, inventory, etc. So the restaurant gets taxed more - Guess who’s bottom line won’t suffer? The restaurant’s. They will make up the difference by either reducing the amount of jobs available or the level of pay. Sorry, no bonuses or pay increases anymore.

Now, what if you are thinking, “The company I work for doesn’t make $250K, so this won’t affect me.” You’re a consumer right? All those products you buy at the store will start to cost more. Trust me, the bottom lines of General Mills and Proctor and Gamble won’t suffer either.

The point is that you can’t look at Obama’s promise of not raising taxes if you make less than $250K and blindly assume that you will be better off. You may not have to pay more in income taxes, but you will most certainly pay in many other ways.

 
Comment by Harry Balsac

Hey Carolyn,

I’d bet my $5000 McCain Health Care Voucher that you copied that story from your email inbox and tried to pass it off as your own little adventure.

You’re as phony as Joe the (unlicensed, tax evading) Plumber and Ashley the (self-mutilating, dyslexic) Campaign worker.

 
Comment by kpgrad

For Chad,

Do you really believe that taxes will only go up for those that make $250,000 or more? With approx 30% not paying any taxes and 5% paying over 70% of all taxes, where do you think Obama is going to get all the money for his social(ist) programs? From you and me both, unless you are one not paying any taxes. Also, the taxes charged to the gas companies will be partially passed back on to the consumer raising the costs even more. Don’t believe me, just study some economics.

You are also one who probably believes that Obama will lower health care costs too! This while increase Medicare coverage and benefits (higher cost), covering preexisting conditions (much higher cost to insurance companies which will be past on to everyone with coverage increasing our costs more), etc, etc, etc.

The fact is Obama will not be able to keep all his promises! There just isn’t enough money out there!

I am not telling anybody how to vote, just use your heads, examine the facts, do your research, and make an informed decision. Vote your conscience on November 4!

why are some people so stupid?
i’m literally speechless after reading that idiotic story about not tipping a waiter because of “spreading the wealth”.
why do McCain supporters seem so stupid?
you know Obama does not mean “spread the wealth” in the same way you pretend he does.
he’s not a socialist, we can’t possibly be in another Red Scare can we?
this guilt by association with Bill Ayers is ridiculous, same for ACORN.
these people are just grasping at whatever they possibly can.
because their candidate is weak…he is wrong on the issues.
most people see through their garbage attacks…the others just don’t want to.
i believe that even McCain supporters know they are using flawed arguments against Obama.

Comment by Gina

Ryan, I am a waitress and I fought hard because my boss wanted all the tips collected and given out evenly, I quit my job there because I was a better waitres than the others and earned more tips than the others but got less and worked twice as hard, My husband does own a small bussiness of trucks, we have 4 trucks and 3 employees, I work as a waitress to pay my taxes now at the rate now, because I don’t want to lose one of my drivers, we do make 250k a year, but trucks need fuel, need engines, tires etc so bottom line take home pay averages for my family 45k a year, have 3 kids in college no goverment grant for them because I am rich right??? and my oldest has a metal disorder which no insurance pays the meds which cost us over 1000.00 amonth and only pay 50 percent because it mental disorder, and it maxes out for life which we are over that amount now so all doctor visits we pay full price, Under Obama we do lose our bussiness, and 3 people will lose their job. and that means I wont have a home that We worked for the last 35 years to get. So why some of us don’t like him and don’t get it is because his plan does hurt us. I normally thank God for what I have every day and count every single blessing I have been given and I try with all my heart to help others less fortunate than my family, but you see the number 250k is alot of money to several people but do what I am doing and you see the pay check isn’t enough to cover the bills, P.S.I don’t have a cell phone, cable tv, go out to eat can’t afford those things my home is only worth 65,000 very average eat hot dogs, and mac and cheese tighten budget but only 250k, and Obama promises not to raise the taxes on you, which means to me if I made 249,999.99 I still will be in the boat I am already in. His plan still does not help me. We still Pay the same, Until 2010 and then we go back to the prices we paid under Clinton and we lose as well. AS for who you hang around with Just Ask Biden about the duck thing again.

and obama voted 97% with the dem party. this is not a man that has ever stood up for the people against the dem party. he has never stood up for the people againstt other nations and, in fact, feels it necessary to apologize for what amercia has done to “them”. a proud american will ALWAYS be proud, in good times and bad but obama does nothing but talk us down to other nations. obama NEVER stood u to the chicago machine and look at how many of thse mayors have been sent to prison! the last 4 of them! he has no backbone, hes not a fighter and he is anti amercian because he talks bad about us and because he tells carear generals that they are wrong. he grew up learning about socialism and communism and how to change amercia through radicalism. he even wants to teach radicalism to our kids (proven). the only thing he wants to do from the the bottom up is wage a takeover of this great contry.

That was great, Carolyn! LOL

We don’t want our money redistributed to anybody that we don’t choose. We earn it, so we should keep it and give to whom we want, if we want. If you don’t make enough money, than go get a second job like we have done for the last 3 decades!!! Lazy retards!!!

Gina, you wouldn’t be affected by the obama tax increase. Like all tax programs, the 250.000 cut-off is for taxable income, meaning business related expenses (maintenance of the trucks, salary to the 3 employees, etc) and other deductable items can be subtracted. If you therefore end up with 45.000 per year, you would stand to benefit under Obama’s plan (McCain’s plan would give you an approximate decrease of 320 $ in taxes, under Obama’s you would get to pay 1000 $ less).
