You said, "Joe already earns $250,000." Why did you say that if you didn't know? , and if I bought a company that made > $250,000 yearly for *less* than that sum I'd be pretty > pleased. And that's relevant here exactly how? He said that's what he expected he'd have to pay. Obviously that doesn't mean he's currently making $250K or even that he'll be making $250K when he buys it. Again, my point is that Obama supporters (including those who won't be able to vote for him) are happy to pass on misinformation detrimental to Joe and don't seem to care that it isn't accurate.
