Is Julio

[49jim]

the new "Joe the Plumber" for the left?.....just asking...

I didn't mean to imply that he wasn't hard working or sincere...he certainly was enthusiastic....the president enjoyed his question....perhaps his 15 minutes of fame could bring him a new job....


oops..The President

[ferrous wheel]

1. He came out of the same petri dish.

:shrug:

[burythehatchet]

2. A guy working at McDonald's Vs. A pretend plumber buying imaginary companies

yeah, exactly the same..

[BlooInBloo]

3. I don't know. Did Obama use him to campaign on?

Let's see... other responses could there be to this genius question?

[Madam Mossfern]

4. A touch or ADHD

I think.

[Sparkly]

7. Frankly...

I thought it was meth.

[madokie]

10. Thats what I thought too

tweaker big time

[B o d i]

11. I had the exact same thought when I saw him. Not just excited, but on something.

Something speedy. Meth, most likely.

[ferrous wheel]

14. Bingo. I see meth-heads all the time, he's one of them or a great actor.

...

5. There is a difference

Julio is sincerely enthusiastic and he is not synical. No one is asking him political questions, people are excited about seeing a kid that is sweet and kind.

6. I feel he was more honest

about himself and who he is. Of course, now that he is in the midst of his 15 minutes of fame, we may find out otherwise, but I hope not. Julio is not a whiner or complainer, and is working at an honest job.

8. Something's not right with this kid.

I just saw him on Countdown with Olbermann, and he looked like a tweaker to me. And all the jumping up and down over excited stuff, and all the God/Jesus references...... just seemed a bit much.

[eleny]

9. I don't think so

The press leans right wing. So Julio won't have it as easy as "Joe".

[baldguy]

12. Is Julio going to get some liberal sugardaddies to give him a recording contract & book deal?

Are there any liberal sugardaddies?

[MrSlayer]

13. No.

I hate to tamp down enthusiasm but that was embarrassing.

[blues90]

15. Oh man , give me a break with this shit

AS if this kid and everyone else in threre was not vetted and propped up for some 15 minutes of fame . He at least has a damn job and seems to be able to afford school not like so many others out there in much worse shape.

This is surreal world at it's best.
