35. There was no "Joe" was there?
He was simply a planted rw irritant cooked up to symbolize the average joe. I am so proud of the smart, articulate young people (and old people and in-between people) who are expressing the frustrations all of us feel at being ripped off by the 1% with the help of our elected representatives. Power to the people!

7. "If you're going to be an extremist, you're not allowed to have exceptions."
They had Joe The Plumber. We have this guy. Epic win for our side. Somebody should put both videos up side by side to show the disparity in intellectual thought between the OWS Movement and the Teabaggers.

8. Not a bit surprised that FOX did not air it
LaGreca made them look like the schmucks that they are. They apparently didn't like that. :D

14. Joe the Plumber
doesn't stand a snow ball chance in hell against Jesse. It would be fun to watch Joe squirm, mis-speak, stumble in sentences, red faced, angry, etc.

And we've got this amazing, articulate, informed, smart guy.

He's a natural leader. Let's do what we can to help him.

16. Omg, he is outstanding!
Fox will NOT air that video. There is far too much truth in it and truth to their audience is like a cross to a vampire. Their blood pressure couldn't take that much truth all at one time. It was probably a humanitarian decision after all!

:rofl:

18. There's a scene in my favorite vampire movie
A girl holds up a crucifix to a vampire that just entered her window. The Vampire says Oy Vey! You got the wrong Vampire.

30. OY VEY -- a great movie
Roman Polanski directed, I think. And I believe the girl was Sharon Tate, beautiful actress tragically and horribly murdered along with her and Polanski's unborn child.

Speaking of which, Fox and its idiots are going to try to make OWS out to be guided by Charlie Mansons. Peter King is already shrieking an "anarchy" meme. Next step will be agents provacateurs pushing for violence. And Jesus wept.

33. Chickenshit FOX. Won't dare tell the truth to their brainwashed viewers. The GOP knows they can't
win, if they tell people the truth. GO Jesse!

22. Jesse warms the cockles of my heart. . .
. . .because he speaks truth to power FROM his heart.

I lost all interest in 2012 with the usual empty suits/pant suits squawking about. . .why bother with them anymore, really.

Now I can see that Jesse is the real HOPE for us. . . the younger generation leads the way. . .

old guard progressives should take Jesse under their wing and let him soar to a greater height. . .

and then we have Liz Warren coming up the ranks. . .Senator Sanders, Reps Kucinich and Grayson, and former Gov Jesse Ventura should meet up at OWS with Jesse the younger!

Now, I'm starting to get hopefully interested again. . .

23. this is the real Joe the Plumber - IF Joe the plumber actually was the common sense working class
person speaking truth to power for the interest of working class people - rather than some ignoramus the corporate media found to repeat the very same things already being said by the corporate media 24 hours a day - seven days a week.

32. Jesse is perfect to speak out for us. He gets to the point, doesn't waste any time and handles any
questions they throw at him easily. He is truly a great American in my book. Thanx, Jesse!

36. I love that guy.
The right wing will likely try to recruit him. They often miss the point that it is the honesty that give words their power and resonate with the public.

42. WOW. This guy nailed it on ABCSUNDAY when he pointed out
that no other network had anyone from OWS on their sunday show.

Of course, David Gregory was feeding from the trough of corporate personalities!
