Obama should ride a snowmobile into Alaska with a dead moose and a rifle.
If the Million Plungers have serious looks on their faces, we’d be toast.
Today I’m taking my sanitized plunger and wrapping a yellow ribbon around it and putting it in my front yard with a sign that says, “We’re all plumbers now!
ROFL! I love it! I think it’s a great idea! “million plunger march!”
0bama looks like a “plumber’s friend.”
It’s nice symbolism to march with plungers, but we also need to clear the pipes of all the clogged up $#!t in DC while we’re at it.
What we need is an ad showing 5-6 small business folks each looking into the camera and saying things like:
My name is Emma and I run a [cranberry farm]. My accountant says I will have to lay off people if Obama gets elected.
My name is Ed and I [build houses]. If you think business is bad now, wait for Obama’s tax hikes.
My name is Fred and I work too hard to see Obama come in and take my wages so he can “spread the wealth around” to his friends”.
etc.
Even if each spot was only 10 seconds, it would really resonate.
FWIW
There’s another Joe....
Joe the Plumber, of Knoxville, that is, says he’s less concerned about whether he gets a tax break if his customers still can’t afford to hire him.
Still, Joe Shanks, a licensed master plumber and owner of Joe’s Plumbing Service in the Cedar Bluff area, has followed the presidential campaigns the same as his much-quoted counterpart in Toledo, Ohio, who questioned Democratic Sen. Barack Obama over his proposed tax hike for those who make more than $250,000 a year.
Shanks said his business, which he jointly runs with his wife, Catherine, doesn’t earn the couple nearly that much income.
Especially lately, with business at about half what he usually handles, thanks to a flailing national economy that has left would-be customers skittish about hiring him.
“I can’t make money right now,” explained Shanks, who’s been in business for 25 years. “I’ve had to lower my prices just to get the job. I’m going for that cheap dollar - I have to.”
Shanks, an independent voter, said he’s supporting Republican Sen. John McCain, citing the official’s career experience in office as the deciding factor for him.
“I’d just feel more comfortable, confident and safe with McCain,” the plumber said. “McCain’s been there. Obama’s just not that experienced.”
Shanks likened the decision to a homeowner in need of a plumber - would you hire the guy who just got his trade license, he asked, or a seasoned professional?

“Flush the crap out Washington.”
“Flush the crap out of D.C.”
Do we really need the Chris Farley graphic this early???
I can already think of various places where to put some of those plungers, such as up the nether regions of certain politicians and Supreme Court judges.
Austin talking about this FR thread RIGHT NOW!!!!!

Most people can’t make it to DC. But everyone could make it to their local ABC,CBS,NBC affiliate in their own town. The media is the frontline in this war.
