WASHINGTON – First there was Joe the Plumber. Is Joe the Hothead next?

Joe McCain said Friday he'll withdraw from campaign activities for his brother, GOP presidential nominee John McCain, after calling 911 to angrily complain about traffic. Joe McCain has apologized for making the call. The candidate's younger brother, who lives in Alexandria, Va., told Washington radio station WTOP he was returning from a campaign event in Philadelphia around 2 a.m. on Oct. 18 when he got stuck in traffic on Interstate 495 at the Wilson Bridge. Police say the call was made about 1:30 a.m. Oct. 21.

Isn’t AP supposed to be a nonpartisan press service fueling the outlets with raw stories? They read like the SF Chronicle to me.

This has nothing to do with anything..my father in law went to his neighbors and torn down his driveway arch...it didn’t even make the local papers!

What I want to hear about, is what Obama’s Kenyan Grandma said....she said he was born in Kenya! Where is that...

On the subject, as an EMT, I would like to ask Mr. McCain what he thought the 9-11 operator could do about TRAFFIC?!

McCain's brother who lives in a squalid African hut while his brother makes millions of dollars as a big shot American politician?

Or am I thinking of the other guy?

Hit piece. Fill up the paper with irrelevant articles and then the Obama corruption stays out of the news.

" After Joe the Plumber, Joe the Hothead?

Associated Press writers Gillian Gaynair in Washington, Sarah Brumfield in Baltimore and Mike Glover in Albuquerque, N.M., contributed to this report. "

They read like the SF Chronicle to me.

Interesting that you would mention that...

Ecuador RPCV Gillian Gaynair named diversity beat reporter at the Virginian-Pilot

Marvin Lake writes: Broadening the scope of diversity coverage

Which is what staff writer Gillian Gaynair, the newly named diversity beat reporter, hopes to do. At The Pilot since September, Gaynair previously reported for three other newspapers, including The Oregonian in Portland. She's fluent in Spanish, and worked in Ecuador with the Peace Corps.
