Who Is Joe the Plumber? Sounds Like a Plant!

Senator McCain in trying to paint Senator Obama as a socialist, shows a for the pseudo concern aforementioned Joe the Plumber! Vote Obama /Biden who will look after the fates of other plumbers, and not just Joe!

It looks like Joe the Plumber isn't even real, he's just a character the Republicans made up.

Me either. It's kind of sad really, this man is a plant and he has a potential political career on his hands.

Re: Who Is Joe the Plumber? Sounds Like a Plant!

I think he's just a dude that was trying to expose Obama, and McCain exploited him.

This is such an old topic.

Re: Who Is Joe the Plumber? Sounds Like a Plant!

Why is he a tool? Because he made Obomba look bad?

If you have evidence he is a McCain employee let me know.

He made Obama look bad?

We all see what we want to see I guess...

He made McCain's campaign look like a desperate last attempt to bring class and race into the debate.

Would we even be having this discussion, if his name was "Jose, the Plumber", and he was the son of immigrants from Mexico, living in South Tucson?

Answer me that.

Re: Who Is Joe the Plumber? Sounds Like a Plant!

He didnt go to Obamas, Obama came to him. So how the fuck is he a plant? Get the fuck over it and face facts, not everyone believes in the messiah.

And everyone better take note of how Obama and his kool aid drinking minions are attempting to destroy a private citizen because he dares question the chosen one.
Reminisent of the good ole gestapo.

Yes if he asked that question. How's the Kool-aid?

(Joe the Plumber will be getting his license to solo soon right? Jose has been a licensed plumber for years. McCain should have gone with Jose.)

As I said before we all see what we want...

The Obama campaign is a gestapo tactic in what? Equality?

Go smoke some more sour grapes, and get your spores underground for re-grouping.

Re: Who Is Joe the Plumber? Sounds Like a Plant!

Joe the plumber is just some dude on the street who asked Obama a question and got Obama to admit he is a socialist. I already knew this.
The Hollywood liberal lame-stream media did not like Obama's answer so they decided to trash Joe. They have tried to trash Joe just like they do EVERYONE they don't like. SHOULD I MAKE ANOTHER FUCKING LIST?

Obama: "How many plumbers do you know making a quarter million dollars per year?"

And there damn sure won't be ANY once Senator Government is elected.

This should scare us. Is this what a citizen can expect everytime he asks a presidential candidate an honest question? Didn't Saddam do this?

The Left declares war on Joe the Plumber
by Michelle Malkin
Creators Syndicate
Copyright 2008

Six-term Sen. Joe Biden’s got some nerve going after citizen Joe the Plumber. But the entrenched politician from Delaware, who fancies himself the nation’s number one Ordinary Joe, had no choice. Obama-Biden simply can’t tolerate an outspoken citizen successfully painting the Democratic ticket as socialist overlords. And so a dirty, desperate war against Joe Wurzelbacher is on.
The Left’s political plumbers are attacking the messenger, rummaging through his personal life, and predictably wielding the race card once again. It’s standard operating procedure for the Obama thug machine.
Wurzelbacher, in case you’ve been in hibernation, is the small businessman from Ohio who questioned Obama this weekend about his tax plan during a Toledo campaign swing. The revealing exchange was caught on tape and broadcast widely across the Internet and TV airwaves. In response to Joe’s question about why he should be “taxed more and more for fulfilling the American dream,” Obama sermonized that Wurzelbacher needed to “spread the wealth around” because “it’s good for everybody.”
John McCain flung that chilling Marxist mantra back in Obama’s face during Wednesday night’s presidential debate and repeatedly cited Joe the Plumber’s plight. Obama squirmed. The dirt-diggers started Googling. And the next morning, six-term Sen. Biden launched the first salvo against the Ohio entrepreneur on NBC’s Today Show, challenging the veracity of his story: “I don’t have any ‘Joe the Plumbers’ in my neighborhood that make $250,000 a year.”
Under an Obama-Biden administration, they’ll make sure no Joe The Plumbers ever earn such a salary. “It’s good for everybody,” don’t you know?
Biden, as is so often the case, twisted the facts about Wurzelbacher. No surprise there. Slick Joe is the one who tells fables about visiting a diner in Delaware that hasn’t been open in years; spins yarns about getting “forced down” in a helicopter over Afghanistan because of perilous conditions that turned out to be weather-related, not al Qaeda-related; and continues to slander the family of the man involved in his wife and daughter’s fatal car accident (crash investigators cleared the now-deceased driver of drunk-driving, despite Biden’s insinuations). But I digress.
Wurzelbacher never claimed to be making $250,000 a year. He told Obama that he might be “getting ready to buy a company that makes about $250,000, $270,000″ a year. His simple point was that Obama’s punitive tax proposals would make it more difficult to realize his dream.
Obama’s followers couldn’t handle the incontrovertible truth. Left-wing blogs immediately went to work, blaring headlines like “Not A Real $250k Plumber!” Next, they falsely accused Wurzelbacher of not being registered to vote (he’s registered in Lucas County, Ohio, and voted as a Republican in this year’s primary).
Next, they called him a liar for identifying himself as undecided. Only registered Democrats and fake Republican tools used in mainstream media stories and YouTube debates are allowed to use that label, you see.
Next, award-winning liberal blogger Joshua Marshall cast Wurzelbacher as some kind of rabid freak for calling Social Security a “joke” – as if no working-class Americans could believe that the federal government’s entitlement programs were a rip-off unless they were bought and paid for by the McCain campaign.
Then, suddenly, the journalists who wouldn’t lift a finger to investigate Barack Obama’s longtime relationships with Weather Underground terrorist Bill Ayers and Jeremiah Wright sprang into action rifling through citizen Joe Wurzelbacher’s tax records. Politico.com reported breathlessly: “Samuel J. Wurzelbacher has a lien placed against him to the tune of $1,182.92. The lien is dated from January of ‘07.” Press outlets probed his divorce records. The local plumbers’ union, which has endorsed Obama, claimed he didn’t do their required apprenticeship work and didn’t have a license to work outside his local township.
Hang him!
After Wurzelbacher told Katie Couric that Obama’s rhetorical tap dance was “almost as good as Sammy Davis, Jr.,” the inevitable cries of “bigotry” followed. (There are now tens of thousands of hits on the Internet for “Joe the Plumber racist.”)
Welcome to Joe the Plumber Derangement Syndrome. If you can’t beat him, smear him. It’s the Obama way.

My friend Lorie Byrd was on the very same wavelength. Read her take here.
Update: McCain defends Joe the Plumber.

lol...

McCain is the one who dragged him into this in the first place, with what was probably the worst vetting job since Sarah Palin. The media finds out the truth about this guy (who now has an agent and is seeking a country music record deal), and reports on it, and that's somehow "destroying his name"?

Joe the Plumber and John McCain destroyed his name. The liberals are just helping them along.
