I just got a seriously ominous and creepy Obama/Ayers brochure in my mail today.

Biden, maybe.

Obama making fun of him would be a stretch.

After all, he patiently took time out to explain his position to
someone who was obviously sandbagging him. And explained
it in a way that any other candidate couldn't or wouldn't.

Which I applauded then and do so now.
Obama said to the effect that he doesn't know of any plumbers that make $250k a year. But I am sure the Messiah wouldn't be making fun of anyone.

What's the point of jumping in here to take a shot like that? I guess the answer is in the question.

Ominous and creepy from the McCain camp?

Sorry, I didn't know that we could only take shots at McCain in this thread.

Obama did indeed make fun of him. He said something along the lines of this, in his usual elitist tone: "The plumber's the guy he's fighting for." Lots of laughter from the crowd. "How many plumbers do you know making $250,000 a year?"

Biden said, "This guy, Joe the plumber. I don't have too many Joe the plumber's in my neighborhood making $250,000 a year that are worried."

Do you know of any plumbers that make $250k? Is stating that unlikelihood "making fun of" someone?

Short of having a pre-conceived agenda, one that's obviously manifested in your "messiah" comment, I don't really see how saying that plumbers don't make $250k is making fun of somebody.
