Joe The Liar, McCain the Liar, and the Pro-America America

So Joe the plumber is NOT a plumber.
He does NOT own a business.
He does NOT make $250,000 a year.

Hmmm. That makes him a, what is that called? Oh yeah, a LIAR!

McCain mentions 'Joe the Plumber 21 times during the debate, implicitly fomenting lies about Joe's status.
McCain accuses Obama of smearing 'Joe the Plumber'(who is not a plumber, so McCain repeats that falsehood again), even though Obama never smeared Joe
McCain implies that Biden referencing the truth that McCain's Joe didn't have a license was a smear.

Let me see if I have this right - claiming, repeatedly, that someone is something they are not, accusing someone(Obama) for 'smearing' someone by a) not saying anything, and accusing another person(Biden) of 'smearing' Joe for b) pointing out the truth, that Joe isn't a plumber...


Hmmm. That makes McCain a, what is that called? Oh yeah, a LIAR!

But what do you call someone, like Palin, who dismisses millions of Americans as not being 'Pro-America' merely because they don't agree with her narrow, narrow, narrow, and uninformed view of the world?

Demagogue? Fascist? Idiot? I don't know, you tell me.

Way to go, Richard.

Re the prior post about the survey:
I have taken the survey, and it's easy and takes about 15 min. It's a non-partisan, academic research project seeking to learn something about how people make their voting choices.

The reason we were asked to block any response here is so as not to bias anyone who might plan to do the survey.
