Man – so anyone who says anything in public is subjected to the scrutiny of CNN? Nice work, clown.

I am sure the wonderfully talented (sarcasm mode turned off) Rick Sanchez is making over $250k and will gladly hand over extra money in taxes to his government.

Amazing how Rick delves into Joe the Plumber’s life and turns his liberal cheek to Obama, etc.

Rick must be a hit at all those liberal cocktail parties sucking up to the likes of Keith Olbermann etc.

What a farce. He got Joe on the show to purposefully discredit him. That little smirk just got bigger all the while with him failing to see how idiotic he himself appeared. Welcome to the new age of journalism. They have to be dancing in the streets, the liberal media.

He ‘endorsed’ McCain so therefore his entire history is fair game?

WATCH OUT ANYONE WHO VOTED FOR McCAIN, then.

Rick Sanchez has his own baggage. If you do some research, I believe you will find a DUI in his past.

Sanchez is a complete smug, clueless, arrogant, a$$hat, douchebag! What a scumbag poser…I like how all these MSM non-journalists are slobbering all over themselves now. God help us all if this is what we are going to see from now on.

After watching the election returns tonight, I’m feeling sick to my stomach. Now after seeing this video of that irrational, repulsive twat Sanchez abusing an innocent American citizen, I think I may really puke.

Is this the kind of media treatment (it cannot be called journalism) and complete absence of logic that we can expect for the next 4 years?

What is a sane person to do? I’ve lost hope in my fellow man. Atlas is shrugging. We need to organize, leave this dump to the looters and head for Galt’s Gulch.

Poland or Czech Republic are starting to sound pretty good.

I’m just going to go ahead and self-censor myself, because I have no words for this pile of dog squeeze that will make it past the HotAir censors. (and I’m not talking about Joe)

It can best be summed up this way: !E#%#$%!#$^@%$&^^@#$!$##$%@^&@$@$@$@$@$@$@$@$#$T@#$#%^&*$^*^&(#^%&@$%@^$

There! It’s off my chest.

Let me translate this conversation:

Sanchez: “Joe, how could you be such a clueless idiot not to want to vote for a guy that is going to give you other people’s money? Vote for Obama and he’ll take it and give it to you! Who would give a crap about people who make more money? I don’t get it because I certainly don’t! Show me the money!”

Joe: “Because I’m not a crook, Sanchez. If I didn’t earn it, it doesn’t belong to me. And btw, what does not wanting to fund welfare have to do with maintaining our governmental infrastructure? What do roads have to do with bribing voters with checks? Why do you legally want to rip off wealthier individuals? Is it because CNN pays shit? Are you anxiously awaiting your check from me? You’ll never understand people like me because liberals don’t have any values!”

Sanchez: “Idiot! You suck! Obama is the bomb!”

Joe: “Screw you, you clueless, valueless douchebag!”

Did I get it right? :D

“my friend”. Joe is not a friend of Sanchez.

“Cry me a river man”. Joe wiped the floor with him by turning the tables on him.

You go Joe.

I think Joe totally owned this puke. That should be an example of what the elite really think of the middle class. I agree with Joe why not ask obama tough questions. if this bum wins all who voted for him will get the president they deserve, I wonder how ling it will take to start hearing this isnt what I voted for ,im going back to praying for a miracle good night

He is not only an idiot, he seems to think he is smarter than Joe the Plumber. He has no idea what principles represent. Talk about a dummy.
These are our college educated journalists? Is he a journalist? Let’s find out about his income. Let’s find out what he did in school. Joe is so much smarter and has so many more ethics than this dip s.

The interviewer was pathetic.

The other day the OECD released a report showing the US to have the most progressive tax system.

In speaking with “Joe the Plumber”, Rick was either purposefully obtuse, in which case he had an agenda, or he was “not the sharpest tool in the shed”, in which case CNN should send him to the tool shed for sharpening.

Not once did “Joe” indicate he wants people earning + $250K to pay less tax than those earning -$250K. Just this week, the +$250K benchmark has decreased to +$200K and then to +$150K; which is exactly “Joe’s” point.

Even a numbers challenged adult such as me understood that “Joe” is simply in opposition to the current “Progressive” tax system. It doesn’t take strong math skills to recognize that a progressive tax system punishes achievement by making those that earn more pay a higher “percentage” of earnings in tax.

Obtuse or dull; either way does not bode well for CNN’s journalistic caliber.

Rick Sanchez is an idiot. That makes him perfect to work at CNN or MSNBC.

Keep repeating this:

Check Wiki: Sanchez, as a drunk driver, killed a pedestrian.

This should be mentioned every time his name is brought up.

On December 10, 1990, Sanchez struck a pedestrian, Jeffrey Smuzinick, with his car on a residential street near Dolphin Stadium…. Smuzinick was paralyzed and eventually died from his injuries in 1995.[2][3] Sanchez….was charged with, and pleaded no contest, to DUI.[2].

Sanchez is a complete embarrassment. He doesn’t even begin to register what Joe is saying about principles. He is so biased and down the road he can’t comprehend what Joe is saying that it is not right to pay (through taxation) people who are not working hard, paying no income tax, and making no sacrifices. The bias is palpable. All he can do is mouth off on the Dmocratic talking points and invasion of Joe’s privacy regarding his license or child support. CNN is a sewer and I will never watch it again.
