good morn __PUNCT__ thi is john_mccain __PUNCT__ speak to you a coupl of dai after the final presidenti_debat __PUNCT__
it wa a good contest __PUNCT__ and i thought i did pretti well __PUNCT__
but let have a littl straight talk __PUNCT__ the real winner on wednesdai night wa a fellow known to america as joe the plumber __PUNCT__
joe wurzelbach is a straight __PUNCT__ talk man himself __PUNCT__
and hi blunt question to barack_obama __PUNCT__ after a recent speech in ohio __PUNCT__ got a clariti out of my oppon that we hadn't heard befor __PUNCT__
joe explain that he work for a small plumb and heat compani __PUNCT__
he been think about mayb take over the busi when hi boss retir __PUNCT__
problem is __PUNCT__ that would make joe on of million of small_busi busi_owner who face a sudden increas in tax under my oppon tax_plan __PUNCT__
that didn't seem fair to joe __PUNCT__
he want to know why barack_obama obama_plan to rais_tax on folk who ar try to start or grow a busi and creat_job for other __PUNCT__
and fair asid __PUNCT__ at a time of seriou econom_crisi __PUNCT__ punish job creator didn't seem like a real good wai to kick __PUNCT__ start a recoveri __PUNCT__
my oppon answer show that econom_recoveri isn't even hi top_prioriti __PUNCT__
hi goal __PUNCT__ as senat_obama put it __PUNCT__ is to __PUNCT__ spread the wealth around __PUNCT__
you see __PUNCT__ he believ in redistribut_wealth __PUNCT__ not in polici that help us all make more of it __PUNCT__
joe __PUNCT__ in hi plainspoken wai __PUNCT__ said thi sound a lot like social __PUNCT__
and a lot of american ar think along those same line __PUNCT__
in the best case __PUNCT__ spread the wealth around __PUNCT__ is a familiar idea from the american_left __PUNCT__
and that kind of class_warfar sure doesn't sound like a __PUNCT__ new kind of polit __PUNCT__
thi would also explain some big_problem with my oppon claim that he will cut incom_tax for __NUM__ percent of american __PUNCT__
you might ask __PUNCT__ how do you cut incom tax for __NUM__ percent of american __PUNCT__ when more than __NUM__ percent pai no incom tax right now __PUNCT__ how do you reduc the number zero __PUNCT__ well __PUNCT__ that the kei to barack_obama whole plan __PUNCT__ sinc you can't reduc tax on those who pai zero __PUNCT__ the govern will write them all check call a tax_credit __PUNCT__
and the treasuri will cover those check by tax other peopl __PUNCT__ includ a lot of folk just like joe __PUNCT__
in other word __PUNCT__ barack_obama tax_plan would convert the ir into a giant welfar agenc __PUNCT__ redistribut massiv_amount of wealth at the direct of politician in washington __PUNCT__
i suppos when you vote against lower_tax __NUM___time __PUNCT__ as senat_obama ha done __PUNCT__ a new definit of the term __PUNCT__ tax_credit __PUNCT__ come in handi __PUNCT__
at least in europ __PUNCT__ the socialist leader who so admir my oppon ar upfront about their object __PUNCT__

and we should demand equal candor from senat_obama __PUNCT__
rais_tax on some in order to give check to other is not a tax_cut it just anoth govern giveawai __PUNCT__
what more __PUNCT__ the obama tax_increas would come at the worst possibl time for america __PUNCT__ and especi for small_busi like the on joe dream of own __PUNCT__
