Maybe I should change my name to G.I. Joe the Plumber for the next couple weeks.

Joe the Plumber: Obama Tax Plan 'Infuriates Me' October 16, 2008 2:46 AM ABC News' Teddy Davis and Hope Ditto report: John McCain may have found a blue-collar face to help him argue that no American -- not even the richest 5 percent -- should pay higher taxes. Joe the Plumber has weighed in on Wednesday's presidential debate and says that Barack Obama's tax plan "infuriates me."
"To be honest with you, that infuriates me," plumber Joe Wurzelbacher told "Nightline's" Terry Moran. "It's not right for someone to decide you made too much -- that you've done too good and now we're going to take some of it back." "That's just completely wrong," he added.

It would be useful if you actually watched the clip. It’s only just over a minute. C’mon, be a sport.

"McCain survived for 5 and one half years in a cell with NO plumbing. Damn straight hell fight for a plumber! Go Joe! Go John!" Beautifully put!

Good suggestion. Thanks, jveritas. I'm trying to think of a little saying to go along with it.

I voted for Romney after Thompson disappeared, even thou it was too late to make a difference - it was Ohio. However, this plumber thing is our October surprise and someone needs to run with it. Where are the Swift Boaters this season when we need them?d

To: Texas4ever; All
Obama made over 4 million dollars just from the sales of his book last year, and he has the audacity to ridicule a small business owner trying to make 275, 000 dollars a year.
Then the punk has the nerve to blame Fox News for his "elistist" reputation.
McCain better damn well use this clip in his ads next week.

That would require that McCain has a clue, and he doesn't. ROTFLMAO!!!! I'm only surprised it took the likes of you so long to make it onto this thread. McCain is about to become President of the U.S. He has a clue. And his campaign has shown itself to be quite effective at putting together ads in a very short amount of time.

Oh Thurston look, is that a plumber?
Why Lovy I do believe you're right. Don't worry, he's a domestic and knows his place.

Joe the plumber was on Dom Giordano show (local Philly host) who recorded a call with him prior to the debate. In it Dom asked specifically if the $280K was gross or net, and Joe said net after expenses (in other words, profits).

Obama talks good, but he doesn’t listen good.
Maybe that’s why he didn’t understand ......what Jeremiah Wright is all about.
Maybe that’s why he didn’t understand....... what William Ayers is all about.
Maybe that’s why he didn’t understand.... ..what Father Pflegar is all about.
Maybe that’s why he didn’t understand .......what Bernadette Dohrn is all about.
Maybe that’s why he didn’t understand ........what ACORN is all about.
From time to time, it’s nice to park your head up in the clouds once in awhile. But Barack Obama has lived his whole life up there. Maybe that’s not what we need in a President.

[John McCain would have you believe that] a plumber is the guy he is fighting for. So, that clever bit of editing makes it seem like hes mocking the plumbing profession, when hes really suggesting that McCain is not really interested in looking out for working-class plumbers. Context matters. The crowd's laughter provides all the context I need. And you're right, his follow-on comment is even worse.

(Obama: He Hates Plumbers)
To: Safrguns
At the very least, this just perfectly illustrates how much Obama was REALLY listening to Joe, and whats more is how little he REALLY respects this man by belittling him. I recently was talking to an Obama supporter and I made the point that Obama was really thin skinned, that he's in the lead and he should laugh off some things bit he just can't do it. Here is a great example. Obama said something stupid, he should simply say "That was a a poor choice of words, what I meant was..." and try to change the story. Instead, he attacks the plumber, a guy he walked up to (it wasnt a rally, apparantly Joe was playing football outside with his son and Obama just walked up to him unannounced, presumably looking for photo ops).
Thin skinned, totally unable to say "I made a mistake", and has no regard for the little people. That's what I want in a President. Uh huh.

but didn't the plumber say he was *thinking* about BUYING a company worth est. 1/4 mil? He said he was getting ready to buy a company. "Thinking" or "getting ready" don't mean it's going to happen tomorrow, Barack.
