“Did Palin try to fire him?”

No. But Piper may have pressured someone else to fire him.

I read the story from the site but to me the site looked a little strange. Is this an alternative newspaper in Alaska, perhaps a paper that is a scandal sheet or similar to the Advocate type paper which is liberal rag that is put out in the Northeast? Just asking because the writing and presentation was odd, to me, but that may be because my radar is up this political season.
I agree with you that the time spent to find out about Joe the Plumber, should be spent on Obama’s past.

The MSM and the Obama campaign have just handed McCain an issue on a golden platter. McCain needs to rush to the defense of Joe the working man and show how the meanspirited MSM and the Obama campaign practice the politics of personal destruction against someone who attended an Obama event and asked him a pointed question.

If the McCain campaign is too stupid to realize what an opportunity this is, they deserve to lose.

Piper applied pressure to fire a plumber?

O M G

COuld Joe the Plumber be

An Air Force Vet????????

I’ll have to check if he worked with the 354th CE Sqdn.

BTW if he lived on EAFB, he would have to have been active duty, the housing list is just too long otherwise....

Being a vet would also explain a lot

Not backing down with His Holinessness, willing to work, wanting to get ahead for his family......

The comments on that post are nuts.
I’m so sick of the evil that is the Anchorage Daily News.
It’s all Palin hate, all the time. And, doubly so in the comments.

He said he was born in the Toledo area, lived until he was 13 in the Florida Panhandle area, went to Springfield High School, and then entered the U.S. Air Force. He was stationed at an Air Force base in Alaska from 1992 until 1995. He said he was honorably discharged.

And then this:

Mr. Wurzelbacher also said he lived in Arizona from 1997 until 2000.

Palin's and McCain's home states!

Joe did not attend an obama event. He was playing football with his son on his front lawn when the one and his goons intruded on his space for a photo op. The one stepped in it big time.

"paid a $76 fine in Fairbanks court for speeding"

AHA!! Now we've got 'im, what a white trash lowlife says the Mediascum......

/sarcasm

So now we learn that the Mediascum have been smearing a VETERAN. How many more honors can the Mediascum add to their honor roll of achievement in this election cycle?

"If the McCain campaign is too stupid to realize what an opportunity this is, they deserve to lose."

Yes, the Obamanators and the Mediascum have been in hyperdrive, busily savaging the life of a good, solid working-class American and veteran to further their filthy aims. If the McCain camp doesn't make this blow up big time for the Obamanation then they will have squandered a tremendous opportunity while failing to defend a real American who is not bitter and clinging, just fed up with socialist b.s.

One simple point: the MSM has done more in 24 hours to "vet" Joe-the-Plumber than most of them have ever done with Obambi in 20+ months..... and they've gone after JtP with malice and depravity, trashing the privacy of an ordinary citizen merely because he dared to question the Obamessiah.

The Anchorage Daily News is part of the McClatchey newspaper family. Same as the Sacramento Bee.
Definintely left leaning, but not considered an “alternative” paper.

LOL...well you know out of all the contenders Sarah Palin has the most direct bloodline to the Stuarts due to being related to Princess Diana. And we all know the candidate with the “best bloodline” always wins. C’mon don’t you think it’s weird that Barack and Cheney are related!!

/sarc..
well just a bit

And a guy on Foxnews this morning was trying to deflect attention back to Joe! Obama does NOT want to talk about what he said.
