    Didn't realize "Joe the Plumber" was running for office!?

    I just had to grasp this for a second: A politician in Ohio that donated $2500 to the Obama campaign is now trying to do background checks on Joe the Plumber. Why? The mainstream media wants it to help Obama.
    Interesting, that the mainstream media never suggested doing a background check on Obama, but rather just turned the blind eye to ANYTHING that would negatively affect his campaign. This is what our Democracy has come to, a citizen that simply asks a question to a presidential candidate and is viciously attacked? WOW. The majority of the media did what they could to protect Obama, and went after Joe the Plumber's credibility. All the guy did was ask a question that the idiots in the media won't, and he gets smeared? Basically, you can just vote for Obama because that's what the media tells you to do, follow the sheep. Democracy? What Democracy? Personally, I don't think the media should have as much power in shaping society as they do.
