Is a tax dodging, unlicensed wanna be plumber really the best person the Republicans should rally around?

Joe the plumber doesn’t represent me. I paid attention in school so I wouldn’t have to have crap sprayed on me 6 days a week.

Guess so! The sad thing about it is that he’s not real plumber, he’s a GOP plant and a relative of Charles “jailbird” Keating!

I suppose that Joe the plumber (all of a sudden they’ve dropped Palin’s Joe Six-pack!!) is better than rallying around an old goat who calls himself a maverick!!

Yes, Samuel “Joe the Plumber” Wurzelbacher is perfect as a delusional white working class person who supports Republicans.
Sean Hannity asked Wurzelbacher of Barack Obama’s tax plan, “Why do you view this as ’socialism,’ because that’s the word you used?”
Wurzelbacher answered, “I grew up poor. You know I actually have been on welfare, you know, my parents, you know, a couple different times, and we’d, you know, worked harder and got off of it and then, you know, actually did fairly well.”
Alan Colmes pointed out that Wurzelbacher would actually get a tax cut with Obama’s plan. Wurzelbacher answered, “To be honest with you. You know I don’t think it’s right to — you know, you know, there’s principles involved. I don’t want to make or have my taxes cut if it means somebody who worked hard or had a better break than I did, and take his money. I don’t want his money…I don’t want someone else’s money who worked hard for it. No.”
“Joe the Plumber” and his parents were on welfare during hard times. But he doesn’t want someone else’s money and doesn’t think it’s fair to take money from one person to give it to another person.
Apparently, for him, money for things like welfare or food stamps or whatever, which is fine when he needs it, but is socialism when others do, is just pinched out by a giant bald eagle or something.
He’s an idiot, not, as Hannity said, offering a manly hand job, “You’re the heart and soul swinging that wrench, you’re the heart and soul of what makes this country great.” No, actually Wurzelbacher is what makes this country the laughingstock of Europe.
European working class people understand how their taxation and social safety nets work. They also know that “spreading the wealth,” unlike what John McCain says, is what makes their countries great.
